VERMONT - IMMUNIZATION EXEMPTIONS by State (includes current statutes, letters & forms)IMMUNIZATION EXEMPTIONS by State (includes current statutes, letters & forms)Vermont Current Statutes & Laws: http://www.nvic.org/Vaccine-Laws/state-vaccine-requirements/vermont.aspx Medical, Religious & Philosophical If the person, or in the case of a minor the person's parent or guardian states in writing that the person, parent or guardian has religious beliefs or moral convictions opposed to immunization the child will be exempt.
Exemption Letters & Forms... Birth Exemptions: For those who are planning a hospital birth but want to evade invasive routine post natal procedures such as a Hep B shot, vitamin K injection, newborn screening, or the application of silver nitrate in the newborn's eyes, a very specific birthing plan must be submitted to the hospital in advance of the birth. Hospital staff must be informed, in advance, of your needs, wants and desires where your baby and birthing experience are concerned. The same applies to midwives. Vermont: HIV Testing for Mothers and Newborns, 2002 Voluntary HIV testing; no specific law. State follows CDC guidelines; No specific law or language on testing for mothers and newborns. Vitamin K Injection... The prescribing information on Vitamin K shot states that fatalities are an adverse reaction according to the Merck pharmaceutical package insert. (.pdf) http://vaclib.org/chapter/inserts.htm#vitK"WARNING - INTRAVENOUS USE Severe reactions, including fatalities, have occurred during and immediately after the parenteral administration of AquaMEPHYTON® (Phytonadione)."The package insert should be printed out and used along with the birth plan letter, and your exemption letter or AFFIDAVIT. This shows the hospital or birthing center that you are aware of the risks of Vitamin K injection, and that they should be too. Alternatives to Vitamin K Prophylaxis... Although oral vitamin K is not licensed for use as a drug by the FDA, drops for oral administration are available. Typically, one drop contains 2 mg. of vitamin K. Contact a midwife in your area, or a birthing supply company (such as birthwithlove.com), or Scientific Botanicals (206 527-5521) where your health care provider can order liquid vitamin K directly. Here's another much safer alternative that your chiropractor or naturopath can order for you. http://www.bioticsresearch.com/Products/BioK.htm A good organic whole food diet along with lots of leafy green vegetables is all that is necessary to prevent vitamin K deficiency in newborns. This "Refusal to Permit Medical Treatment" form is optional to use. "Refusal to Permit Medical Treatment" form Refusal to Permit Medical Treatment. A generic form.

It would be good idea to use with the AFFIDAVIT AND model birth plan letter (below). Sample Vaccine Letters Most states now require the Hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Many parents are also cornered by emergency room personnel during accident visits. Hospitals nationally are under pressure to utilize every opportunity to score a "hit." If your pediatrician understands your views, get him involved with the hospital. As a last resort, protect your right to receive quality care in the following manner. (Usually, you'll never find anybody in the hospital to sign this simple form): "I certify that the (Name of Vaccine)________ vaccine being administered to (Name of Child)_________ is free from all known and yet unknown zoonotic or human viruses or viral fragments and will not cause acute or chronic illness in the recipient due to viral contamination or as a reaction to the components of this vaccine. (Signature of Physician and Date)_________." If you do get a signature, hold on to the form.

Be it known to all courts, governments, and other parties that: Being a person/or people of Strong Christian Morals, it is against my/our Deep, Sincerely Held Religious Convictions to accept the injection of any foreign substance into my/our Body/Bodies or the Body/Bodies of my/our Children. This includes, but is not limited to, any and all, Vaccinations, Shots, Tests for Diseases, Oral Vaccines, Epidermal Patches and in any other way that Live or Killed Bacterium, Viruses, Pathogens, Germs, or any other Microorganisms, may be introduced into or upon my/our newborn’s body. This written statement to exempt my/our newborn from any immunizations, the Vitamin K shot, eye prophylaxis, PKU & other testing because I/we hold genuine and sincere personal religious beliefs which are inconsistent with these medical procedures & experimentation. The practice of vaccination, injections and application of any foreign substance is contrary to my/our conscientiously held religious beliefs and practices, and violates the free exercise of my/our religious principles. The Hepatitis-B vaccine protects against a disease that is only transmitted through multiple sexual partners or street IV drug users and therefore usurps my parental authority to condemn such activity in my/our child. The acceptance of this vaccine promotes sexual promiscuity and immoral behavior in direct contradiction to the teachings of my/our faith. The prescribing information on Vitamin K shot states that fatalities are an adverse reaction according to the Merck pharmaceutical package insert. http://vaclib.org/chapter/inserts.htm#vitK "WARNING - INTRAVENOUS USE Severe reactions, including fatalities, have occurred during and immediately after the parenteral administration of AquaMEPHYTON® (Phytonadione)."(We / I) {First and Last name(s)}, as the {(parent (s) / guardian(s)} of ______________________(name of newborn child) are exercising our rights under the First Amendment of the US Constitution and V.S.A. § 1122 (3) to receive Religious Exemption from Vaccination & testing. Applicable law has been interpreted to mean that a religious belief is subject to protection even though no religious group espouses such beliefs or the fact that the religious group to which the individual professes to belong may not advocate or require such belief. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended Nov. 1, 1980; Part 1605.1-Guidelines on Discrimination Because of Religion. Our legal rights are guaranteed by the free exercise clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Recent court decisions have upheld the rights of individuals seeking exemptions from immunizations based upon personal and religious reasons. On the U.S. Supreme Court level in Frazee V. Illinois Dept. of Security, 489 U.S. 829, it was found that a state may not deny an exemption simply because a person is not a member of a formal religious organization. The Lord Jesus Christ and Our Creator are the only source of protection of my/our body/bodies and that of my/our family that I/we can accept. I/We affirm that vaccination & injections of any foreign substances and proteins conflict with my religious beliefs as stated above. Therefore, I/we would request that you accommodate my/our religious beliefs and practices by exempting my/our newborn child from any vaccination or injections of any kind. Rest assured that my/our family and I/we do practice a form of immunization that keeps our immune systems strong and is in keeping with Biblical principles.

This AFFIDAVIT below is also sufficient for a religious exemption statement from MMR and any other vaccines to post secondary institutions. Most colleges now have their mandatory waiver for meningitis. The required documentation informs the postsecondary school, and thus the state, that the student has either been vaccinated for meningococcal meningitis or has chosen to decline the vaccine. AFFIDAVIT I, _________________________, Sui Juris, Free, Natural Flesh and Blood Human Being, state Citizen of the Vermont Republic. Be it known to all courts, governments, and other parties that: Being a person of Strong Christian Morals, it is against my Deep, Sincerely Held, Religious Convictions to accept the injection of any foreign substance into (my/our) (Body/Bodies) (or the Body of my Children). This includes, but is not limited to, any and all, Vaccinations, Shots, Tests for Diseases, Oral Vaccines, Epidermal Patches and in any other way that Live or Killed Bacterium, Viruses, Pathogens, Germs, or any other Microorganisms, may be introduced into or upon (my/our) (body/bodies) (or any of my children’s bodies). This written statement to exempt (me/us) from any immunizations, Mantoux (PPD) Tuberculin (TB) Test, or other shots/injections, because I hold genuine and sincere personal religious beliefs which are inconsistent with these medical procedures & experimentation. The practice of vaccination and the injection of any foreign substance is contrary to my conscientiously held religious beliefs and practices, and violates the free exercise of my religious principles. The Hepatitis-A vaccine containing MRC-5 is obtained from human babies that were electively aborted. WI-38 was created from the tissue of an aborted fetus and is used for the rubella portion of the MMR-II vaccine. RA 273 was created from the tissue of an aborted fetus, and is used for MMR-II vaccine. The Chickenpox (Varivax) vaccine contains MRC-5 and RA 273. A conflict arises because my religious convictions are predicated on the belief that all life is sacred. God's commandment "Thou Shall Not Kill" applies to the practice of abortion. The acceptance of these vaccines promote abortion and violates the Sixth Commandment of "Thou Shall Not Kill". The Hepatitis-B vaccine protects against a disease that is only transmitted through multiple sexual partners or street IV drug users. The acceptance of this vaccine promotes sexual promiscuity and immoral behavior in direct contradiction to the teachings of (my/our) faith.
