Talk to me about vax shedding

[Pirogi]

I work in the military and am required to get vaccines. (Well, I could try to get the base chaplain to get me a waiver, but probably it would not happen.) Anyway, they are pushing the flu mist vaccine here, and I understand it is a live virus? When I looked at the insert, it said:

Some viruses are excreted in human milk and additionally, because of the possibility of shedding of vaccine virus and the close proximity of a nursing infant and mother, caution should be exercised if FluMist is administered to
nursing mothers.

So, should I refuse the flu vaccine until I can get an IM injection?

Also, somehow and strangely I don't have immunity to mumps, according to my titers, although I have been fully vaccinated. The Merck MMR vaccine insert says:

It is not known whether measles or mumps vaccine virus is secreted in human milk. Recent studies have shown that lactating postpartum women immunized with live attenuated rubella vaccine may secrete the virus in breast milk and transmit it to breast-fed infants.49 In the infants with serological evidence of rubella infection, none exhibited severe disease; however, one exhibited mild clinical illness typical of acquired rubella.50,51 Caution should be exercised when M-M-R II is administered to a nursing woman.

Soooo, what are my chances of transmitting M, M, or R to my unvaxed 14-month-old? Could it actually be not such a bad thing? Or should I try to fight for a waiver for another year?

imo fight for a waiver for another year. Why infect such a young child? And why be sick when the child is that young?

The worry about the MMR is that since it IS a childhood disease, it is not good for mature humans. The actual infections are often worse and for sure so is the vaccine. Arthritis is one side effect mentioned for grownups after receiving it.

I'm not entirely sure about how it works in the service, but you should be able to claim a religious exemption...MMR, has aborted fetus tissue. And I read in one of Dr. Mercola's articles that you can legally accuse someone of, "assalt with a deadly weapon" if they are trying to vax you or your child against your will.
heres a link to all his vaccine articles, theres one about mysterious vaxes being given to soldiers...http://articles.mercola.com/sites/Ar...egory=Vaccines

When a person joins the military, they become the property of the military and give up all personal rights to liberty and pursuit of happiness.

I would see if you can delay it due to bfing cant hurt to ask but like Gitti says once you are in the military they can pretty much do with you as they please
