A stunning survey as published in JAMA Network Open from researchers at Emory University and CDC found that only 35-40% of pregnant women and parents of young children now intend to accept all government recommended vaccines for their children. For someone who has been a very outspoken critic of vaccines for 20+ years, even I’m SHOCKED that the number is now this low. The fall of vaccines in the public eye is nothing short of astonishing. When I started educating patients “at the turn of the century” even the most considerate of patients looked at me with a curious eye, while most I’m certain internally chuckled. A young chiropractor doubting decades of global practice and public health dogma.
Then COVID happened, and where I had warned on record many times (during and after Swine Flu, Bird Flu, Zika…) that something big was coming and these were merely “wargames” it was clear as day when the big one came along. For me the global panic, the response, the absurd ignorance of hard facts, the suppression of alternative intellect, the media spin, every level of it made it so easy to read that from the early days I wrote pieces and we recorded videos talking about what wasn’t being covered and forecasting what was coming next. It was all spot on, but one thing I continued to press was with everything on the line there were only two possible outcomes. First was what they wanted, complete elimination of any and all vaccine exemptions and implementation of mandated global vaccine programs. The other was even if people started waking up it was “too big to fail” so they would continue to push so hard that there would be a widespread awakening. Thankfully the outcome was the latter or I wouldn’t have written this email nor would you be reading it.
The takeaway from this as “Back to School” is here, you are not alone if you don’t want to drag your kids to the doctor to get a bunch of shots in order to pick up your slip. What you don’t get from the local news, promoted on billboards, or sent home in notices from the school system is that you have the legal right to Religious and Philosophical exemptions. In other words, if you don’t want it you don’t have to. We made it easy long long ago with this form, all you have to do is fill it out for your kids and bring it to the Health Department.
Here forward, with RFK Jr. as the current HHS Director there’s going to be a LOT of information and changes happening in this sphere. The idea of “safe and effective vaccines” is under the microscope for the first time in decades. The awakening isn’t over yet.
Know someone recently in a Car Accident?
Recently you might have seen the cover story in the Lagniappe regarding a local clinic and a massive “deceptive scheme” that has just been shut down by the District Attorney and various counterparts facing lawsuit by the State of Alabama. We had a patient ourselves that was a victim. She was hit by another vehicle, two days later she got a call from someone claiming to be her “insurance liason”. They told her she needed to check in for injuries at South Alabama Medical & Rehab which lists themselves on Google search as a “Chiropractor” clinic even though they don’t employ any chiropractors. Once there they put her on the phone with an attorney who talked her into signing an agreement after which she was to start treatment in that clinic. At that point she decided to check in with me as it felt fishy.
Sadly there is a lot of mistreatment within the auto collision arena. Look around at billboards and you see a number of all too familiar faces. Tik Tok and other socials are just as populated with ads. It’s not just the attorneys, many clinics and doctors also use the prospect of large settlements to go after easy money at the expense of necessary patient care. We have treated many patients who have seen other chiropactors for other motor vehicle collision cases who have NEVER been adjusted. Treatment often times is nothing more than laying on massage tables with electrodes stuck to their necks, hot and cold packs you could do at home, or worse.
Let me be clear though, not everyone takes advantage in these ways. We have worked with many great attorneys outnumbering the shady, and ourselves always put patient care first. If you walk into our clinic you couldn’t distinguish between those that are there out of their own pockets or those who are there through an attorney. I certainly don’t feel that patients injured by someone else should be personally responsible for nursing themselves back to good health. But it really does come down to who you know so you don’t get taken advantage of. So if you know anyone now or later who is in a collision, give them our information and press them to inquire. It could make or break their outcome financially as well as in health.
