Vaccination Newsflash!

This makes me happy. I've seen some very sad cases.

Vaccination Newsflash: Crossposting from: Dr. Ihor Basko VACCINATION
NEWSFLASH Re: J Dodd's vaccine protocol

I would like to make you aware that all 27 veterinary schools in North
America are in the process of changing their
protocols for vaccinating dogs and cats. Some of this information will
present an ethical & economic challenge to
vets, and there will be sceptics. Some organizations have come up with
a
political compromise suggesting
vaccinations every 3 years to appease those who fear loss of income vs
those concerned about potential side effects.
Politics, traditions, or the doctor's economic well-being should not be
a factor in medical decision.

NEW PRINCIPLES OF IMMUNOLOGY "Dogs and cats immune systems mature fully
at 6 months. If a modified live virus
vaccine is given after 6 months of age, it produces immunity, which is
good for the life of the pet (ie: canine
distemper, parvo,feline distemper). If another MLV vaccine is given a
year later, the antibodies from the first vaccine
neutralize the antigens of the second vaccine and there is little or no
effect. The titer is not "boosted" nor are more
memory cells induced.
"Not only are annual boosters for parvo and distemper unnecessary,
they
subject the pet to potential risks of allergic
reactions and immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia. "There is no
scientific documentation to back up label claims
for annual administration of MLV
vaccines "Puppies receive antibodies through their mothers milk. This
natural protection can last 8-14 weeks. Puppies
& kittens should NOT be vaccinated at LESS than 8 weeks. Maternal
immunity will neutralize the vaccine and little
protection (0-38%) will be produced. Vaccination at 6
weeks will, however, delay the timing of the first highly effective
vaccine. Vaccinations given 2 weeks apart suppress
rather than stimulate the immune system. A series of vaccinations is
given starting at 8 weeks and given 3-4 weeks
apart up to 16 weeks of age. Another vaccination
given sometime after 6 months of age (usually at 1 year 4 mo) will
provide lifetime immunity."
