ILG - Vaccine Hysteria

He wasn't very happy.

Also, he gave some more info and said there was e-coli present in her urine - which apparently is common with UTI. Because of that, he said, it's more likely there was contamination somehow -- either with how they inserted the catheter or possibly even a poopy diaper. We take care to wipe down and never up when cleaning them. But I can see where contamination could happen. That information makes me believe it wasn't the vaccine which caused the infection.

Question:
I was going to submit a report on VAERS; however, since I don't believe the vaccine caused the infection, and since "low grade" fevers are listed as a possible side effect, should I still report the 101.7 degree fever?

Why don't you talk to some organizations that deal with reporting and see what they think? You could talk to both pro and anti-vaccine groups, put together the information you feel is important and make your decision that way?

My take on what your doctor said...I would think to myself "is being hospitalized a "normal" response to a vaccine?"

Please let us know what you decide. Or even discuss it here.
