This is a story from a mom who took her child to the emergency room with a cut. Doctor: "We're going to give her a tetanus vaccine." Mom: "Really? What brand and configuration did you have in mind?" Doctor: "Just Tetanus." Mom: "You mean the DTaP?" Doctor: "Well, yes." Mom: "So, you want to give my child a vaccine for 3 diseases when you're only concerned about one?" Doctor: "It's the only way it comes." (wrong) Mom: "So...how long will it take for the vaccine to help her create antibodies against tetanus?" Doctor: "About 3 weeks." Mom: "If this wound contains tetanus spores in the correct environment, how long before the spores start producing toxins causing lockjaw then death?" Doctor: "Immediately." Mom: "So you want to give her a vaccine that she won't mount an immune response with until about a week after she's dead, then?" We left without the shot or TiG... Scares me that I have more information than a physician. It should scare you, too. — Dee Resnick Forlano
