The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today revised its recommendations for rotavirus vaccines for the prevention of the disease in infants and has determined that it is appropriate for clinicians and health care professionals to resume the use of Rotarix and to continue the use of RotaTeq.

My daughter caught this flu several years ago when she was about 2 or 3 years old. The diarrhea was the sickest smelling stuff I’d ever encountered, and was, in fact, so bad I had to throw away the most darling pair of footsie pajamas because I didn’t think the smell would ever come out. I miss those pajamas, and now that she’s 11, I think her footsie pajama days are over. :o(

I wouldn’t submit to any vaccine proffered, paid for or supported by this administration, period. You take you life in your hands.

I’m with you, Gaffer.
