On Sunday, 12 Elul 5773 the Health Ministry is expected to announce it is extending the southern Israel polio booster vaccination program nationwide. The ministry plans to give the booster to all Israeli children under the age of nine. However, as the operation goes nationwide, those parents opposed to vaccinating their children plan to turn to the High Court of Justice against the booster vaccine.
The law office of Dan Ashkenazi and Associates is presenting the Izun Chozer organization and parents opposed to the vaccine. The organization plans to petition the High Court of Justice against Health Minister Yael German and ministry Director-General Prof. Roni Shai Gamzu, demanding the vaccination program halted until the ministry adequately informs the public to the risks of taking the oral polio vaccine. The petitioner is also seeking ministry data regarding one’s risk and exposure to polio to permit families to make an educated decision regarding giving their children the booster.
After the virus was found in southern and Sharon regional sewage during recent months, the ministry decided to move ahead with the oral polio booster vaccine in the southern area. This is also the result of testing 1,400 individuals in the hope of determining how many Israelis carry the illness. Lab results document over 1,000 of the test subjects carry polio, prompting the decision for the vaccination program.

“Over 1,000 of the test subjects carry polio” Big deal. How many people got sick with polio? None Zero Zilch Nada. It’s just another scare. Why are they scuba diving in the sewages? I’m sure if they’ll look for more viruses in the sewages they will find a plethora of em. Anyways it’s all bogus, the real reason they decided to vaccinate everyone is because the are bound to bigger decision making bodies. And why do you think they will be giving the oral polio vaccine and not the dead virus vaccine? Even though the oral vaccine is more dangerous, in fact it’s not even legal in the US any more? Huh? Well let me tell you a little secret. Ready? Simply because the oral vaccine costs 1 shekel and the other six. It’s simple math. Wink.
Just curious – It doesn’t seem that anyone actually got the polio – of all the thousands who “carry” it. Maybe they are just carrying the germ from the last shot they took and dont need the booster yet.

You are spreading partial truth as truth resulting in misinformation.
OPV is discontinued is areas where polio is eradicated however it is not “illegal”, it still has FDA approval but for the US it’s use isn’t correct anymore, for Israel where there is already a new outbreak using OPV can be correct.
However if you prefer so by all means get the more expensive vaccine, just make sure you get one or the other.
#2:
All the thousands who aren’t carriers need to be vaccinated before they contract the germ and C”V change into symptomatic carriers.
The bottom line is parents are being duped into believing that vaccinations will protect children from deadly diseases when in fact they protect children from absolutely nothing. The truth is that more and more vaccinated children are becoming sick with the diseases that they have been vaccinated against and research is revealing that doctors are devising clever ways to cover this up. Not only this but the adverse reactions that children can have from the vaccines, are potentially worse than the diseases themselves. It seems to be that vaccinations are little more than a get rich quick scheme run by the pharmaceutical industries and endorsed by the governments.
Keeper of the Keys #3 you are right that it is still legal technically in the US, but it was discontinued because of it’s association with “vaccine-derived polioviruse” (VDPV), so they didn’t make a law per say. Also those thousands of carriers arn’t sick and I don’t think they will get sick either, because most people who come in contact with the virus never get any symptoms. It is a benign virus for the most part. It’s only when someone gets sick and also test positive for the virus that they blame it on the virus, and that begs to question is it really only the virus causing the sickness, then most people who come in contact with the virus should get sick. Or are there other factors involved that they are ignoring? Also administering the OPV to 1,000,000 children will definitely cause trouble, CH”V. While in Israel there hasn’t been a case of polio in over 20 years! Hashem Yerachem.
