Vaccination of new born babies @ your country. Mandatory or not, how many?
Hello everybody,
I need some information about vaccination of new born babies in your country.
Is it mandatory or is it just an option?
If yes, for how many diseases?
Thanks a lot for information

It is my understanding that the immunization of newborns is strongly recommended but not mandatory. However, that is not a Federal law - it is governed in most cases by the State and in some cases by the hospital/birthing center where the baby is delivered which may be more indicative of the care provider assisting the delivery. Parents always have the option to make an informed decision to waive immunizations (at any age group - including newborn).
I would also hazard a guess that although newborn and infant schedules for immunization can be spread out, deferred or refused by the parents - there are States and school districts that mandate or try their best to mandate specific immunizations before the child enters the school system. The reasoning behind this is two-fold: not to expose the vaccinated children to the unvaccinated child as well as not exposing the un-vaccinated (thus, unprotected) child to children carrying diseases (but who are not symptomatic). Both scenarios could potentially be a danger.
As far as what the recommended schedules are here in the States - the Centers for Disease Control are seen as the main influencers. I've included their link and a couple others for you to review.

Nothing in Canada is "mandatory", but there are conventions, and informed consent is required to opt out of vaccinations. The link below has information for Canada.

Hello Wojciech,
Vaccination is not mandatory in India. It is well promoted time to time by government, for certain diseases like polio, chicken pox etc on campaign basis to eliminate them.

Though not mandated by law, in Canada vaccinations are the rule, but parents who take exception to having their children inoculated, however ill-advised their thinking, are within their right to refuse to do so.

Whats the purpose of your question Wojciech?
Over here in Holland is is not mandatory, but a lot of people are doing it
There is also a consiousness growing that vaccinations can be a serious thread to little baby owns natural immume system strenght. After all if it was true - that according to the bible - God created mankind according to his own self-image, why would mankind need vacinations anyway?
And more and more cases are showing up on little children actually become more and more ILL from those same vaccines.
Remember the "Mexican, swine flu hoax" and the real strains of real flu found in the "anti mexican, swine flu" vaccinations!!!
Tip:
Surf the internet and find out WHICH TOXIC ingredients are being used to inject, vacinate into your (still) healthy litte kid) Ive collected a few of my own:

I wish you good luck with this information and your research
To me personally the human body does not need outside interference in fighting of diseases. It it pretty well equiped to do it with unnatural chemicals that are able to premanenly damages your immume system FOR LIFE.
