Guest guest Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 http://video.aol.com/video/news-baby-vaccine-being-recalled/2038888 see above link millions of Merck Hib vaccine may be contaminated...lots affected were shipped since April 2007 Merck claims Babies " would have been " sick already from it...within a week or?so from time of injection. Bacterial contamination most likely to cause local reactions...but as always the pharma company is hedging with a LOT of " maybe " and " possibly " etc. HOWEVER? what if these bacteria are still in the systems of these kids?? what of immune system status differences?? They really dont know the full ramifications of having possibly injected bacteria into all these babies!!! Please pass along to ALL parents of infants and babies. Also be aware many clinics and Drs may not be notified in time to stop this injection or may even be unwilling to send the stuff back. If your child had an unusual reaction ( or whose arm had an infection) call your Dr and keep a note on your datebook/calendar until Merck?releases more info!! Be well Finette ________________________________________________________________________ More new features than ever.
