Sample script:
“Hi, my name is ____ and I am a constituent. I am calling to ask Representative ____ to OPPOSE H.B. 4157, which would mandate meningitis vaccines for 10 and 11 year-old school children.
Vaccine mandates are contrary to the concept of informed consent for medical procedures.
According to the CDC’s website, meningitis vaccines can cause serious allergic reactions and injury, including death. In addition, the CDC acknowledges that they have limited data on the efficacy of these vaccines and that meningococcal disease is at a historic low in the U.S.
I urge Representative _____ to oppose H.B. 4157.”

TALKING POINTS for calls and emails:
- There is no public health crisis in Oregon that warrants mandating meningococcal vaccines for all 10 and 11 years old school children. According to the National Meningitis Association, only 600-1,000 people contract meningococcal disease in the U.S. each year, out of a population of over 300 million. http://www.nmaus.org/disease-prevention-information/statistics-and-disease-facts/

- The CDC’s own website warns of the risk of severe allergic reactions, severe injury, and death from meningococcal vaccines. The government should not mandate that people be injected with something that could seriously harm or even kill them. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/vis/vis-statements/mening-serogroup.html
- The CDC’s website warns that more than half of all people who get serogroup B meningococcal vaccine have the following reactions to vaccination (soreness, redness, swelling, tiredness or fatigue, headache, muscle or joint pain, fever or chills, nausea or diarrhea.) No parent should be forced to risk the health of their children simply to attend school https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/vis/vis-statements/mening-serogroup.html
- Parents should have the right to refuse a medical procedure for their children that is known to result in injuries, including Guillain-Barré Syndrome, SIRVA, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, Bell’s Palsy, brachial neuritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and even death.
- Meningococcal vaccines have been fast tracked, without completing thorough testing and thorough analysis. Mandating use of these vaccines is irresponsible.
- The US Supreme Court recognizes vaccines to be “unavoidably unsafe” and to cause injury and death in some recipients. In just the first four months of 2017, the government paid over $182 million to people harmed by vaccines they received. Since 1989, over $3.6 billion has been paid out in vaccine injury compensation.
- Vaccine makers and the healthcare providers who administer them bear zero liability for vaccine injuries and deaths. The vaccine manufactures reap all the profits from vaccine mandates, without having to pay for any of the injuries or harm.
