    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    mariebailey replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm assuming you meant DTaP and not Tdap. Tdap isn't typically administered until ages 10-11. DTaP does not cause developmental setbacks. I would look for a more legitimate cause. The CDC/federal govt...

    NCLEX pharm/vaccine advice

    mariebailey replied to jbeaulac's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    On the day before the NCLEX, I think it's a good idea to rest your brain and do something you enjoy instead of last minute cramming. I'm pretty sure I was not tested on vaccines when I took the NCLEX,...
