Exemption letter

[lisaandshaun]

How did you go obtaining this letter from your doctor? Did you get the 3rd degree about not getting your child immunised?

thanks

it should be an easy process - just tell the doctor you want a conscientious objection statement lodged as you're not going to get your child immunised. they will go through what the risks of non-vaccination are, and as long as they have educated you and you still decide you don't want to (so you KNOW what you're doing and not just making a "nah, don't wanna" statement) they'll sign off on it

they can't NOT do it if you are aware of the "risks" of non-immunisation

it depends on the doctor.
They are only meant to discuss the pros of vaccination and not get into personal opinions...
you can get a letter online from medicare or the doctors can print it.

I didn't get the rota virus one, told them I didn't want it she said I'll need to you to sign a letter etc, she did ask me why but said she was curious as she hadn't come across anyone ... objecting before... she had the full no vax girls but not someone who just objects to one or two specific one IYKWIM!!
