Speaking of Vaccines...

Specialties School

How many students at your school are totally unimmunized? We have ONE. A Kindergarten kid. Russian family who is very much into "alternative" therapies. Poor kid had a horrible ear infection back in December and was sobbing and holding his ears. Had a temp of 101. Called mom to come get him and long story short, she never brought him to the doctor and used some crazy drops. Perfd TMs a few days later. Just happened again last week. I seriously have zero patience for ignorant people.

Specializes in kids.

I have 3 with absolutly no vaccines for religious reasons and one who is medical.

Considering how small my school is (about 700 total between 3 campuses) I have a TON of conscientious exemptions and only like 2 medical. I do know that some of my conscientious ones are due to a family member (who lives with them) being immunocompromised, so they opt out of vaccinations for them. The rest are just "those people"....
