Hello everyone. Here i come again with a question
I lived in NY state for almost 9 years. I have a 3 year old and we did all the immunizations, according to AAP.
From conversations with my family, who lives overseas, I discovered that in my home country immunizations are not done until the child is at least 5 months old, but the immunizations are given all the way through school. They include TB and small pox on top and the rest. The only vaccination they do not do is mumps.
I started doing research on vaccinations in US and for a second I questioned the purpose of vaccinating an infant so small - like preemies and newborns. I also talked to some parents who don't immunize at all.
Recently, I entered nursing school and got a job at a hospital. Titers/immuizations were mandatory.
After working in the hospital and coming in contact with everything, I am truly glad that I received my immunizations, because it has been 3 months and I haven't even had a cold, considering how many people I work with and how many isolation patients I have to deal with.
ALmost every mainstream american physician I met believes in immuizations.
How do u feel about it?
