A New York midwife who gave nearly 1,500 children homeopathic pellets instead of required vaccinations has been fined $300,000, the state’s health department announced this week.
Jeanette Breen, who operates Baldwin Midwifery on Long Island, administered the pellets as an alternative to vaccinations and then falsified their immunization records, the agency said Wednesday.
The scheme, which goes back least to the 2019-2020 school year, involved families throughout the state, but the majority reside on suburban Long Island. In 2019, New York ended a religious exemption to vaccine requirements for schoolchildren.
The health department said immunization records of the children who received the falsified records have been voided, and their families must now prove the students are up-to-date with their required shots or at least in the process of getting them before they can return to school.
“My six-year-old needs to be protected from a deadly disease but I don’t trust vaccines. I know! I’ll call a midwife!”
She is awful and deserves prison time, not just a fine, but the parents are also fucking stupid.
The importantance of vaccines are “I need to do my part to protect OTHER kids AND adults from deadly disease”
That’s the biggest part of this problem though, it’s not “my six year old” on the table here - it’s everyone’s six year old. I have a responsibility to understand that.
If we can’t understand the above, then we don’t live in a functioning society.
beginning to suspect this is right… still wearing my mask in crowded spaces, still watching 1000s die weekly from covid, no one seems to fucking care… 1712 died last week.

I suspect that she selected her midwifery clients based on their views about vaccines.
I wouldn’t be surprised if her patient’s parents knew she was pencil whipping these vaccinations, otherwise she’d be in jail or being sued by the families.
