Started by Bill Lodato 12 years, 7 months ago
December 11, 2013 New York City law makers decided to impose a law on New Yorkers that children under 6 are mandated to have the flu shot to attend school. My name is Bill Lodato and as a parent I am outraged by the politicians blatent disregard for our parental rights. I and everyone who signs this petition feel that we as parents should have the right to decide what gets put in our children. (Not Politicians) We do not support the push by the drug companies, politicians to get our children the flu vaccine. Please sign our petition and join our cause. Let's show the politicians that we are not just one voice but many. We need to show them we are a force and can hit them where it hurts, the voting booth come election time.

No one but we, the parents of our own children, should have the say in whether or not our children get the flu shot. Little by little our rights are being taken away us. What's next??? What's happening to our freedoms??? I strongly disagree with this.

It's only 60% effective (if they get the correct strains in any given year). Why suscept developing immune systems to domething thst is not more effective. The flu shot should be a parental decision, not a mandate by the government.

This is just another ploy by Big Pharma to make more money, with complete disregard for parental rights and children's health. It's completely outrageous. We are being stripped of our rights. I feel like I'm living in a dictatorship.

look at the ingrediants in the flu shot, thermisol and forymhaldyh, and to "guess" what strain to vaccinate against. my family will never have the flu shot.Bloombwrg is.worried about people drinking large sodas but it is ok to inject our children with an embalming agent?!

We have parental rights as to what we want for our children! Not all children die from catching the flu. Many are allergic to the "flu shot". I will NOT sign myself nor my children to be NYS guinea pigs for ANYONE or ANY COMPANY!

I do not approve of mandating the flu shot. Why shouldybkid be deprived an education because I do not believe in flu shots. But if I had a different "religion" as some do and they are not mandated to give their kids shots- maybe my kid could excel like the rest????

If I do get sick, without the flu shot, it lasts only 24 hrs at the most. If I get the flu shot, I am out for 2 weeks.
