Your government is watching and tracking your decisions – even saying “No” to vaccines.
The Centers for Disease Control has been quietly rolling out a nationwide program called the Immunization Information Systems (IIS), registering your vaccine information into a database. [1] This effort has been run in parallel with state vaccine registry implementations.
What is the intention of such programs?
My colleague Leslie Manookian, writer and director of the movie The Greater Good, wrote in a recent article, the “CDC has openly stated that vaccine registries are a tool to identify areas of ‘undervaccination’ so that they can be ‘addressed’ and brought into ‘compliance.'” [2]
I would also add to Leslie’s statement that since the government purchases a large bulk of the vaccines (for example, the Vaccines for Children program), it is in their financial interest to make sure vaccines are consumed regularly.
If you exempt your child from being vaccinated, your refusal is also being tracked and put into the database. If you want to know why this is a big deal, read on.
But first, what does tracking every vaccine you or your children have ever been injected with look like?
Big Plans for You
I want to make this very real for you.
The government collects information on who vaccinates their children and who does not. They know how many children have had their vaccines. They also know how many children have opted out of being vaccinated. They have the data.
The government has big plans and the most outrageous part about this entire scheme is you don’t have a choice – your data is entered. In order to accomplish this task we have to answer 3 basic questions.
1. What data is being tracked?
2. Who has access to the tracked data?
3. What will be done with this data?
Let’s start with the first question of what is being tracked.
Question #1: What Data is Being Tracked?
You’ll be surprised at how much data is being tracked. Some of the data is required while other data sets are optional. Rest assured, what is optional today can become required in short order.
According to the Immunization Information System Functional Standards, 2013 – 2017, the following information will be in their databases: [3]
- REQUIRED: Patient name: first, middle, last
- Optional: Patient alias name: first, middle, last
- Optional: Patient address, phone number
- Optional: Birthing facility
- Optional: Patient Social Security number (SSN)
