Only 5 doses. Only 7 doses. And they still didn't work. Maybe 8 is the charm.

Winnie - from what I understand, it is not unusual for children to have as many as 30 doses because they just administer them - they don't ask if they have already. And yet, they still get polio and VAPP as well but we are supposed to believe that the vaccine wiped it out!On 17/01/2012, at 2:06 PM, wharrison@... wrote:
