Guest guest Posted March 13, 1999 Report Share Posted March 13, 1999 After doing a little snooping around on the polio vaccine, I found that the Sabine vaccine, which was given to us on sugar cubes, was a diluted LIVE virus. The Salk vaccine, which is given to our kids and the next generation, is NOT a live virus. So, perhaps there is something to our theory about this vaccination causing us to be chronic lymers. Just a thought... By the way, thanks for all the kind words of support. We have a doctor for the kids to go to on Monday on Long Island, Dr. Orens. So, keep us in your prayers!

Guest guest Posted March 15, 1999 Report Share Posted March 15, 1999 Lovette, good luck with Dr Orens, he is the one who trained the lyme doc I started off with and I hear he is not good about followups, let me know what you think of him.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 1999 Report Share Posted March 28, 1999 I was wondering what you all know about the polio vaccine we got when we were kids? I can't remember how old I was, but I got the lst one on a sugar cube. (late 1950's I think) I have since read articles about the vaccine having been tainted with a green monkey virus and they used it anyway. Sometimes I wonder if so many immune system problems showing up are related to the vaccines we get, the polio vaccine in particular. Vaccines might be one of the few things that we would all have in common, assuming those of you from countries other than the US got them too. Would be interested in anything you all might think or know about this subject. Marcia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricia Thanks Tricia, If you have them handy, yes I would like to see them, but don't want want you to use up your " energy budget " looking for them :-) Marcia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 18, 1999 Report Share Posted September 18, 1999 If the kids were given the polio shot you really have nothing to be concerned about. If the received the polio vaccine orally then you have cause for a little concern. IT is possible to transmit the polio by saliva for up to 2 wks after and through feces for up to 8 wks. Hope this helps. List Owner polio Vaccine From: TMod@... I know my 2 nephews just received a Polio Vaccine, I believe it was a shot (though not sure, are they given as shots) any way how long should I keep my unvaccinated children away from these children, knowing that polio is shed. Any info is greatly appreciated as soon as possible. Thank-you, Theresa Tmod@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2002 Report Share Posted February 1, 2002 My oldest is almost 8 and he had the oral and so did my middle one () -- then had the imnjectable one when they switched over and ph has had all injectable (this is going on memory, of course..I could look in their records, if you like...) wish I could be of more help to you... Pattie Polio vaccine The polio vaccine routinely given here is the oral vaccine. Yes, we are behind, arentwe. My worry is the exposure to his classmates in the few weeks after they have received the vaccine, and is it feasible TO worry or are we stressing over nothing? The kindy teachers came up with requesting the parents of the other 19 children in his class to notify them when their child is given the vaccine, and at first felt it would be a good idea to state why, down to s name. Well, alarm bells went off in my head over that but I understand their reasoning to state why they re asking for this information- otherwise some parents might not think it important and forget to say anything. So we compromised by excluding the name, and just wording it that the vaccine exposure could prove harmful to a peer. Even that I am worried over. I dont want singled out by the parents, I dont want the spectrum of AIDS being confused by PIDS, I had experience wiith that when my daughter was in pre-primary and have heard some awful stories on this list with other parents experiences and their childrens classmates' parents ignorance. I told the teachers I would be happy to answer another parents questions if it comes to it, but dont want everything broadcast to follow him throughout his whole school life. As I say, it comes down to ignorance and wanting to protect from that ignorance. The kindy class is staggered in the coming weeks so that half the class has 2 days each for the next few weeks until they all start together at 4 days a week (half days). So will be with only 9 others for a few weeks. Knowing that most of the children were being vaccinated before the school year starts, one of his teachers suggested she call the parents of the nine children and check before Tuesday (his first day) if their children had been vaccinated in the past week or so. Then we make the decsion whether misses out on the first few weeks of school, which I am loathe to do. He is so looking forward to school! Has this ever been a concern for the rest of you, or has the polio vaccine been given routinely by injection for such a long time now over there that it has not been an issue?

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2002 Report Share Posted February 2, 2002 Even when the oral was given here in the country the only precautions were with the day care workers who were changing the soiled diapers. According to the pediatricians the only proven way of transmission was through bowel movements.
