Protect Us From Compulsory Pandemic

Dear Peter,

Thank you for writing to us on this important topic. At this time in
Oregon, there are exemptions allowed for mandatory vaccines. In the
case of a pandemic emergency, the Governor’s declaration would override
the exemptions. We understand how this is disturbing when one considers
Constitutional Rights. The executive decision would be for the good of
the public health as determined by evidence and science. Currently, the
H1N1 vaccines are still in trial. I have read that the neurological
side effects that were discovered in association with the Swine Flu
Vaccine in the 70’s are not evident in this vaccine. It also appears
that the virus is fairly benign for most of us except children and
pregnant women in addition to those who have prior respiratory
conditions. Given the facts that the virus is fairly benign and only a
third of the actual needed number of vaccines will be produced by
October, it does not appear that there will be a mandatory vaccination
on the horizon for now.

We appreciate your active citizenship on this issue. Please feel free
to contact us again. We will be watching the issue closely.
Representative Cameron is very concerned about public health/safety and
your Contitutional Rights.

Sincerely,
Mattie Day
Legislative Assistant
Rep. Kevin Cameron
