Guest guest Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 i wanted to add to the vaccination conversation that there are many groups of people who can die if exposed to diseases like chicken pox, that we normally vaccinate for. the elderly and immunosuppressed are at high risk when exposed to children who are not vaccinated. if children are carrying a virus like chicken pox and they come into contact with a child that has had (for example) a liver transplant and is on immunosuppressants, that child can be seriously ill from the exposure. kids on immunosuppressants don't wear signs so caution is the only way to protect them! you never know who you come into contact with and if your child has been exposed to something so please, if you do not vaccinate -- use caution when doing things like chicken pox parties and let other people know about possible exposure!!!!! best, heather Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile.
