When they found out it was a business they apologized and we hung up. I googled the number and found this. Apparently they are trying to gather children immunization information.

quote:

312-578-7015. This number is attached to The National Immunization Survey. A link will be provided. You are NOT obligated to comply. Ultimately their goal is to get your children's vaccine information among other things. Allegedly they have pre-qualified your number for the presence of small children at the number. LIE. That is not true here yet I have received 2 calls. You simply tell them you choose not to participate and also to Please remove you from their list. The first one was rude back to me...hehehe.....but the second time I kept it friendly yet firm. So far they have not called again but I am not holding my breath. At any rate My Peeps...Know Your Constitutional Rights and Exercise Them...Push is coming to shove...

What part of the Constitution says you don't have to do telephone surveys if you don't want to?

I thought that was basic common sense

Can't image how my kid's immunization is anyone's business.

Plus, you can't even put your kid in school unless they have all of the over-60 government mandated immunizations.

I thought the Constitution required you to do telephone studies?

Unless you are an illegal alien they have to take you with no records.

The NORC at the University of Chicago is a social science research center with the CDC as their client.

Still don't get how they can say "This is Jane and I'm with the CDC" I would get if if they said they were doing a survey for the CDC.

According to the script, they should say "On behalf of the CDC"
