I worked as a postpartum nurse for 43 years, in addition to skilled rehab. Initially the Nurse Practitioner and hospitalist Pediatrician threatened reporting parents to the DCFS, but later (I believe after consulting hospital lawyers) parents were permitted to sign waivers. You need to find a pediatrician or family medicine physician who supports limited or no vaccines. There are some out there, but they don’t openly advertise. The best way to find them is via Facebook parental groups. If I knew then what I know now, I would have advised parents to refuse the in hospital hepatitis vaccine. There is zero reason to force this vax on a 2-3 day old infant, not to mention any young child. I personally had permanent vocal cord damage after receiving my second hepatitis vaccine while recovering from a cold and I was 33 years old. ( Obviously my immune system was impaired because it was my second cold in one month.) Just think what this can do to a newborn who has an immature immune system before 6 weeks of age. You can also seek an attorney out beforehand and threaten them with litigation. Turn about is fair play. You must seek a strong attorney who is willing to go up against the hospital attorneys and law firms that big hospitals have in the wings.
