I had to be fully vaccinated before placement. We were told at beginning of semester 1 and placement was near the end of semester two. Gave us heaps of time to get all the vaccinations, and for them to start working....
I have an appointment for Monday to get my blood tests done. I have no idea what I am immune to and am not looking forward to getting heaps of vaccines at once
wow! i never had to be vaccinated at all. my workplace offered hep b when i started which i took but thats it. here in SA nothing was ever said about it.
I was never vacc'ed as a kid cos my older sister had reactions to them. I have had chicken pox and measles and I think mumps as diseases so hopefully all that shows up in the blood work. Over the years I have had regular tetnus and stuff. So hopefully I don't need to many jabs!!Knowing my luck I would get reactions to them all if I had to have them, cos the schedule is pretty full on to try to fit them all in in a short space of time. I'm planning not to get the flu vaccine even though it is on our list. Will see tomorrow what the GP says.
so I had my blood test and am immune to chicken pox, MMR and even though I have had my Hep B shots before they didn't take and I didn't show any immunity to it. The GP said that sometimes it happens. So I had another hep B shot just to see if this one works and I also had meningacocyl (sp?). I have to go back for the tetnus booster one and also polio next month. Gosh the taste in my mouth after I had the shots was just disgusting!!!!!
I have had 2 rounds of Hep B vacc and have barely any immunity but a small amount.
MMR I had a vaccine booster 6 months before I conceived DS1 and had low immunity at my bloods!!
Had first lot of Hep B vacc at uni when doing nursing.
