Cachickenpoxparties · CA Chicken Pox Parties. "This
group is a database for moms wanting to expose their
children to other children with Chicken Pox, in order for
their child to contract Chicken Pox and attain natural
lifelong immunity. Those who should join are parents who
are willing to share their information with other members
should their children contract Chicken pox and to organize
"parties" with the children so they can be exposed. This
is a California based group for parents with unvaccinated
(against Chicken Pox or all diseases) children. This group
is intended for healthy children. Everyone should be aware
that chickenpox has a better than 99.99% recovery rate and
usually provides lifelong immunity. Complications are very
rare, but every parent should consider them before making
the decision to expose their children.
According to the CDC, there are approximately 4 million cases a year, between 5000 to 9000 hospitalizations and 100 deaths from complications.

You are responsible for the decisions you make and this group holds no responsibility for any negative outcomes." Yahoo! group. - Chickenpoximmunity · Chicken Pox Immunity Group.

Pghvaccinenetwork · Pittsburgh Vaccine Network.
"This group was created for parents of non-vaccinated
children to share information when a known opportunity for
exposure to a childhood disease exists, i.e. whooping
cough, measles, mumps, chicken pox, etc. This information
can help parents to either avoid exposure to certain
diseases as well as to initiate exposure so that their
child has the opportunity to develop immunity to childhood
diseases. This group can extend throughout the
Mid-Atlantic States to Pennsylvania, New York, West
Virginia, Michigan, Ohio, Maryland, and Eastern Canada
(Toronto). All parents are welcome as some might be
willing to travel for exposure.
This group can also be utilized for support when or if any of our children have contracted a childhood disease. We can share information about homeopathics and herbal remedies to help our children get through it.
Let's help keep each other informed.
Peace to you and your family!" Yahoo! group. - Scar After Chicken Pox. "for ppl who hv scars after suffering from chickenpox to help one another out, esp girls." Google Group.

Utchickenpoxparties · Utah Chicken Pox Parties.
"This group is intended as a way to connect Utah parents

you want to travel) wanting to expose their children to
other children with Chicken Pox, in order for their child
to contract Chicken Pox and gain natural lifelong
immunity. This group is intended for parents who choose
not to vaccinate their children. Each member should do
their research about chicken pox and understand that while
99.99% of people who contract the disease recover fully
and then have lifelong immunity, there is a very rare risk
of serious complications. Members whose children have
contracted the disease should post their willingness to
organize a party, and be willing to share contact
information for others who are interested in
participating.
According to the CDC, there are approximately 4 million cases a year, between 5000 to 9000 hospitalizations and 100 deaths from complications. There are also risks to having the chicken pox vaccine, as with all vaccines. Please research all options before making your decision.
