Rozalio

Rozalio is a Czech association of parents that advocates for a voluntary vaccination system with sufficient information. It demands that vaccination always be carried out with regard to the child's health condition and with minimization of possible risks. It also seeks to participate in changing the legal regulation of vaccination in the Czech Republic so that vaccination is in principle voluntary. The association is led by a committee headed by the chairperson of ROZALIO, currently Martina Suchánková. It communicates with experts, members of parliament, and the media; lectures at discussions throughout the Czech Republic; and is in direct contact with parents, providing them with information and support, answering over 1,000 inquiries annually by e-mail, Facebook, or telephone. It organizes the annual Očkofórum, where various experts speak, and is a member of the Working Commission for Vaccination Issues created by the Ministry of Health. It participates in the creation and distribution of brochures such as "Jak zasáhl systém očkování do života některých rodin" (How the vaccination system affected the lives of some families). It financially and organizationally supports the organizers of the event "Zapal svíčku za včeličku" (Light a candle for a bee). It has participated in submitting several amendments concerning vaccination, helping to raise awareness among legislators. Thanks in part to its legal and financial support for parents in court disputes, there are now exemptions from vaccination declared by several rulings of the Constitutional Court. It organized a petition against the repressive approach of the state on vaccination, which in 2015 was submitted to the Parliament of the Czech Republic with twenty thousand signatures. It is also an initiator of the Petition for Free Choice in Vaccination. In 2020 it drafted a new petition – for the removal of discrimination against children in access to collectives within mandatory vaccination. Together with the League of Human Rights it drafted a petition for voluntary coronavirus vaccination. It advocated for hexavalent vaccination, where three doses began to be applied instead of four. It stood up for parents whose insurance companies did not want to reimburse mandatory vaccination that had been postponed. Thanks in part to Rozalio, it was possible to help children who allegedly cannot be temporarily vaccinated and thus could not enter kindergarten before the legislative change. In the Public Health Protection Act, Rozalio also managed to push through a change allowing children without proper vaccination to go on all school events with their classmates. It closely cooperated in the creation of the law on compensation for damage caused by mandatory vaccination, which entered into force in April 2020. It financially supported a court dispute that was to decide on the vaccination of a twelve-year-old girl, where she herself refused vaccination, her mother supported her, and her father insisted on vaccination. Its own operation is financed from membership fees and donations. The association has been criticized by the Czech Skeptics Club Sisyfos and the Zdravotnický deník (Medical Daily) for its approach to information, which they describe as erroneous, unserious, manipulative, and containing a high proportion of untruths. In 2018 the association Rozalio received the anti-award golden Bludný balvan (Wandering Boulder) for 2017, awarded by the Czech Skeptics Club Sisyfos for its contribution to alternative risk analysis techniques, especially vaccination risks. The Prague Security Studies Institute published a study in July 2019 on the topic of vaccination on disinformation websites, which analyzed the topic on 40 disinformation websites between 1 January 2018 and 15 February 2019. The study captured 570 reports about vaccination, of which 76 were negative in relation to vaccination. On Rozalio's pages the study captured 70 reports about vaccination, of which 19 (i.e.
