Guest guest Posted March 28, 2001 Report Share Posted March 28, 2001 Hib and Prevnar are vaccines intended for high risk....daycare/formula fed infants. Lucky you to have an understanding dr willing to listen and abide by your concerns and decisions. " Redhead, K. et al. Antimicrobial effect of human milk on Bordetella pertussis. FEMS Microbiol Left 1990;70:269-73. It appears that human milk possesses an ability to inhibit B. pertussis which is not shared by bovine milk and that this property is independent of the effect of lactoferrin, lysozyme levels, the lactoperoxidase system, and differences in the fatty acid composition.* " " Harabuchi, Y. et al. Human milk secretory IgA antibody to nontypeable Hemophilus influenza: possible protective effects against nasopharyngeal colonization. J Pediatr 1994; 124:193-98. These data suggest that the protective effects of human milk against otitis media may be due in part to inhibition of nasopharyngeal colonization with nontypeable H. influenza by specific secretory IgA antibody.* " " Arnold, C. et al. Day Care attendance and other risk factors for invasive Hemophilus influenza Type b disease. Am J Epidemiol 1993; 138(5):333-40. The protective effect of breastfeeding in the subgroup of children under 12 months of age was substantial and was statistically significant.* " >From: Chevy974@... >Reply-Vaccinations >Vaccinations >Subject: pediatrician visit >Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 12:32:06 EST > >Well, Chaela and I had our first visit at the ped today she is 3 mo old.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I took my son for a sports physical last week, and near the end the Dr. offered the H1N1 vaccine. I politely declined, and she did not insist, but asked me to sign a waiver form that she has to " turn in " . I asked her if this was neccessary, and she smiled and said yes. (that is NOT true, in Virginia I am NOT legally required to sign any waiver...) she left me in the room with the waiver forms, which I promptly folded and put in my pocket, smiled at the nurse on the way out...... My question, that I should have asked her , is...who is she supposed to turn these waiver forms over to? CDC? VAERS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
