    Hugs.

    Unfortunately having a vaccination does not make you immune to any of the diseases. Hope he is better soon x

    We had an instance where the nurse wasn't activating the vax properly, you needed to twist the vial to mix it or something and as a result a heap of kids got saline vax instead of the actual one. Fortunately they discovered it but a whole lot of kids had to get it done again. Sometimes errors like that can mean that a whole cohort of kids get things that they are supposedly vax'd for. But yes it is pain!
