For those in the UK.................

At least there is one - Dr. Yazbak - who isn't bought and pocketed by

pHARMa (as well as Jackie and the other parent)

Hi

Media alert - Real Story is a 30 minute current affairs programme which

goes out on BBC 1 at 7:30pm, Wednesday. The episode on 18th October is due

to cover the UK DoH's new vaccination schedule for babies and infants.

Children in the UK will receive 25 separate components by the age of 13

months:

+ pneumococcal (six components, two needles).

unknown.

Wednesdays at 1930 BST.
