Despite overwhelming evidence that vaccinations are a highly effective method to control the spread of infectious diseases, a vocal element of the chiropractic profession maintain a strong anti-vaccination bias.
Chiropractors are not licensed to prescribe drugs to patients. Vaccinations are considered drugs and regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. By signing this petition, you are not making a statement of whether or not you agree with vaccinations as a means to control the spread of infectious disease in the United States. You are making an appeal for legislation that would require chiropractors to defer questions they receive regarding vaccinations to a licensed physician as physicians are more qualified to provide information regarding the efficacy of drugs.
