Guest guest Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 "Target Chickenpox, Hepatitis B, Advisers Say" Atlanta Journal-Constitution (06/30/05) P. 15A; Wahlberg, The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has strengthened its recommendations for chickenpox and hepatitis B vaccines to aid the ongoing effort to eliminate those diseases altogether. The new recommendations include a chickenpox booster to be administered during outbreaks of the disease, and mandatory vaccination for incoming middle school, high school, and college students. The panel said boosters could help stem the spread of the disease during outbreaks, when even those children who have received their routine chickenpox vaccinations could be vulnerable. The panel is also asking that officials require doctors to vaccinate newborn babies against hepatitis B before they leave the hospital, even in cases when the babies' mothers test negative for the disease. CDC administrators are expected to endorse both recommendations. (Web Link) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 I don't think you understand how important that Hep B vaccination is. If it wasn't for that vaccination new born babies are bound to get infected when they hit preschool age and go through their intravenous drug stage and start sleeping around. I hear about it happening ALL the time! > > " Target Chickenpox, Hepatitis B, Advisers Say " > > Atlanta Journal-Constitution (06/30/05) P. 15A; Wahlberg, > > > > The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Advisory > > Committee on Immunization Practices has strengthened its > recommendations for > > chickenpox and hepatitis B vaccines to aid the ongoing effort to eliminate > those > > diseases altogether.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Well they can expect to see a lot of the previously healthy, normal teens going down. I guess they don't think enough teens/young adults are taking mental health drugs yet. Of course if they inject teen girls with enough toxins, I have a feeling their offspring will be keeping the ASD numbers up.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 from the article: The panel, meeting in Atlanta, also decided to tell doctors to make sure babies get their first dose of hepatitis B vaccine before leaving the hospital, even if their mothers test negative for the disease... this is absolutely ridiculous. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
