Thank you for sharing - My 2 sons are grown men so things were quite different in the 70s and 80s - all I knew then was my mom warning me of the Pertussis vaccine, and I remember as a child her "arguing" with the doctor - so I am sure I only got 1 or 2 - she also shared the story of why no Pertussis vax - my brother had almost died after receiving it so I was able to request my sons not get that vaccine, I guess at the time, they could easily separate the doses. Having my youngest in 1987 I had not even heard of the 1986 Act ! It wasn't until Dec 17 2018 when my daughter in law advised that her 28 wk appt her ob recommended ALL get the Dtap/flu that this subject was raised and that is when my rabbit hole journey started. I was simply looking for if tendency for injury could be inherited. My dad had also died from Penicillin when I was a teen. One of the 1st things I learned was why there were so many lawsuits prompting the signing of the Act. I grew up and learned from other experiences of very limited "trust" in the medical profession. Got a strong gut feeling almost immediately that Dr Carrie is an exception along with some other of her peers - Thank God for her !! We are blessed by coming in contact with her and her knowledge.
