I am looking at becoming a EMT. To enter the program I have to get

the following

Mumps

proof of immunization or positive titer

Measles (rubeola)

born before 1957 or

documentation of receipt of two (2) doses of live measles vaccine

after first birthday and no less than one month apart, or

physician diagnosed measles, or

documentation of immune titer proving immunity

Rubella

rubella vaccine given after one year of age, or

documentation of immune titer proving immunity, or

age greater than 40

DPT / DT /TD / Tetanus

immunization within the last five years

PPD (tuberculin)

skin test good for one year

chest x-ray good for two years

Chicken Pox

current immunization or proof of positive titer

Most of these have titer's so I would do that over the actual shot.

Some like the DPT/DT/Tetanus are required. Is this a concern? Do

these still typically have mercury in them? Andy mentions the risk of

auto immune conditions. What am I to do? How about if later in my

career I need Hep A B C vacs?

Thanks
