Dr. Tenpenny on Vaccines Today was a heart-ripping day. My first new patient was an RN who told me by 2020, EVERYONE in the healthcare industry -- from students to administrators -- will be required to have a flu shot to have a job. My last new patient today was a lovely 15yo who has 3 Gardasil shots.....and has a myriad of health problems. After pouring >17,000 hours of heartfelt, labor-intensive work to nearly BEGGING everyone to at least READ a package insert and asking them SERIOUSLY investigate the issue behind vaccination, the latest statistics reveal only 2% have decided to stop (based on school exemptions.) The tsunami has arrived. Shots required for education. Shots required for employment. Will shots be required for renewing a driver's license? for getting on an airplane? For cashing in food stamps? Having access to healthcare and other social services?
