    Imagine going to such lengths to avoid giving the COVID vaccine to your child but allowing some quack to give your child some questionable pellet to eat.

      During the height of anti-vaxing the ones that opposed them had no issues smoking a pack a day and guzzling beer while exclaiming their bodies were a temple to preserve.

      They didn’t see the irony that their temple was filled with toxic smoke and drenched in a form of poison, but hey let’s endanger more than just you and your loved ones, but the community at large with the anti vaxx stuff…

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A Long Island midwife falsified vaccine records for some 1,500 school-aged children, according to New York State’s Department of Health, which on Wednesday announced that it had fined her $300,000.

    The authorities said the scheme began at the start of the 2019-20 school year after a measles epidemic had led New York to end religious exemptions for immunizations.

    But instead of administering the required vaccines, the midwife, Jeanette Breen, of Baldwin, N.Y., gave thousands of homeopathic oral pellets to school-aged children and then falsified their immunization records, according to the authorities.

    While most of the children with falsified records were on Long Island, many were from New York City, and some were from other parts of the state, including Erie County.

    In a 2019 deposition, she said she had been running a midwifery practice in Baldwin for about 30 years and had graduated from Columbia University’s School of Nursing in 1984 with a master’s degree.

    The deposition involved a case regarding whether a pregnant employee at a hospital should receive an exemption from a mandatory flu shot policy.
