Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 My son's weekly therapist came the other day. She said, " you know, I got my flu shot because I don't want others to be at risk with my going into their homes frequently. " This is the same woman that I gave my personal blog to you to educate her after our personal vaccine injuries. She does understand that some people cannot genetically tolerate vaccines and tells her loved ones and clients to do one at a time. My response was, " Did they give you the live-virus or the killed one? " She didn't know because her insurance company just showed up one day to vaccinate the volunteers. I said, " Well, I hope that they told you that if you received the live-virus one that you'd be a contagious risk to others for up to 6 weeks - particularly to the immune comprised and pregnant persons. It is actually listed on the package inserts by the vaccine manufacturers. " Her mouth fell open. I said, " What, the doctors/nurses didn't tell you that? " She said, " No, maybe they didn't give me the live one?? Maybe they didn't know if they did? " I said, " Well, the first live-virus vaccine that any person receives is at 12 mo. old - the MMR. Do you think they tell the unsuspecting parents of this? What if they are expecting another child at the time? " I could tell that she was stumped and very concerned....everything that I had told her until this point just went in one ear and out the other. I think that I will make it a point to print a package insert for her the next time I see her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
