<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I just have to weigh in on this
topic. Today I went for a new patient doc </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>appointment.
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>One of the questions I was
asked, "Are there any young children </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>that visit your household?"
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Why
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>of course there is! I
have grandchild who is 8 </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>and my daughter's friends with children
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>who visit. I am the
"adopted YaYa to all </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>of them. What happens next???
I am told that they </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>recommend
the Pertussis booster </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>because of the children!
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Yes I had to be vaccinated so
I would be protected from the children!</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I have been around furry or
feathered critters since I was born! Except when I
stupidly</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>rushed in to save my daughter's
furkid from getting his leg hung up, I have never, ever
had</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>to be vaccinated to protect me from
them.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Did anyone get the impression that
this researcher did not like pets? Maybe it was just
me</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>honing in on his statements about
all the diseases you exposed to. It is not like I let the
gang</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>go around filthy, flea ridden or full of
parasites. Of course then again this is U.C. Davis which
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>has </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>numerous "issues" of their own. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
