Guest guest Posted October 22, 2002 Report Share Posted October 22, 2002 Both of Cassie's immuno and ped suggest the flu shot. We usually get it at Cassie's well visit. However, this time we did not, and are having to go back because Cassie was wearing the holter monitor at that time. I figured we would come back and do the shot sometime next week. Cassie has not received any other vaccines though since she turned 2 except for the pneumovax. They are now starting to require the Hepatitis A vaccine for all children born after 1992 in order to enter/enroll in a school in our county. It is very weird because our neighboring county does not have the same requirement. I don't know of any outbreaks though. I do know that whooping cough has made a comeback and is hospitalizing many infants in our city. Sort of scary here with all that is going on healthwise (Hep A, St. Louis Encephalitis, and Pertussis). Hope all the pumpkins are doing well. : How is Autumn's asthma?

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2002 Report Share Posted October 23, 2002 If Cassie is on IVIG, her doctor can write a note explaining that she gets coverage throught that and should not have the vaccinations if they pose a danger to her. It just needs to be an official letter from the doctor so that if the state health inspects the school, they will be covered. I guess the long and the short of it is, depending on the PID, some need the flu shot, and some shouldn't have it. If you have a good immuno, I would respect his/her judgement about it.
