The number of parents who refuse the vitamin K injection for newborns has risen sharply in recent years. Researchers describe this trend as alarming, while many parents criticize the lack of balanced information and the fact that the treatment is routinely administered to healthy children. The risk of bleeding associated with vitamin K deficiency is described as rare.
The number of parents who decline the routine vitamin K injection given to newborns has risen sharply in recent years. According to a large Swedish study published in JAMA Pediatrics The share rose from 0.66 percent in 2006 to 1.50 percent in 2021.
Critics argue that the information provided to parents is often one-sided and alarmist. Many parents feel they are not given enough opportunity to ask questions or discuss alternatives, but rather that the vaccination is presented as a matter of course.
Some of the most common reasons for declining an offer include:
- Concerns that the shot will hurt the newborn baby
- Fear of possible side effects
- The belief that an increased intake of vitamin K through the mother's diet is sufficient
- Widespread distrust of the healthcare system and routine medical procedures on healthy children
The researcher Eleni Simatou, a pediatrician at Astrid Lindgren Children’s Hospital, describes the trend as alarming in *Läkartidningen*. She attributes it in part to a broader skepticism toward vaccines and healthcare recommendations. At the same time, the risk of bleeding associated with vitamin K deficiency is described in the medical literature as rare in healthy children.
Many parents choose oral vitamin K drops instead during the first few months, even though, according to the study, these provide less protection than the injection.




The pharmaceutical industry (Big Pharma) has far too much power.
How did it happen that the K-vitamin shot (which is purchased by Big Pharma with EXPENSIVE TAXPAYER MONEY) became routine, ???
Well, that's because Big Pharma itself sits on the boards and committees that make these decisions.
With the aim of fleecing taxpayers.
That whole setup has been rigged by the villain himself… as well as politicians who are on their payroll or who will be ostracized if they tell the truth.
"Let's drain the swamp," I say.
Divert the flow of money away from taxpayers…
I agree with Mats—drain the swamp!!!
I don't trust vaccines one bit since COVID-19, when millions were tricked into getting it, tons of people got sick, some developed "turbo cancer," and others suffered from "post-COVID"—and now those idiots think people are supposed to trust the next vaccine???
If I had children, I would have kept them as far away from the vaccine doctors as possible—the same goes for me; I won’t get a single shot again. I myself got three COVID vaccine shots because of travel for work. Maybe I was lucky and got a placebo, but when I tried to find out what those shots contained, I discovered that all the records were suddenly unavailable?????
So, given this, I’d rather die than get vaccinated in the future, and Big Pharma itself has created this anti-vaccine mindset—those damn murderers.
Exactly! The mRNA ”vaccine” has killed millions and harmed even more. It will continue to cause harm and suffering for a long time to come, since it is passed on through breast milk. Also consider blood transfusions that are contaminated with that crap.
I recommend that all new and expectant parents be VERY skeptical of all childhood vaccines, including the vitamin K shot. Please watch Aida Reva’s video specifically about the vitamin K shot and how it stresses a baby’s tiny body. I myself have a vaccine-injured son who, among other things, has autism. No one knows what he would be like today if we had opted out; it was the first shot at 3 months that was devastating for him. (As a parent, just thinking about it causes anxiety.) Unfortunately, I wasn’t sufficiently aware at the time and still had a great deal of trust in vaccines, among other things.
Our immune system is built up through our very first contact with our mother—both in the womb and during the first few months of life—as well as through active play as children and by dealing with the infections that almost everyone experiences. Shots and pills have nothing to do with our bodies or our health. On the contrary. Big Pharma only wants people who are just sick enough to be dependent on their expensive, lifelong medications. Incidentally, I saw that the Swedish Social Insurance Agency apparently provides financial support to children dependent on Ozempic so they don’t become obese. The world is sick to the core.
These days, I would never let my child get vaccinated against anything at all!
