end of tour...

I had completed my tour of vaccination yesterday.... these were the 2nd stage of the H1N1 vaccination(target were 1st -3rd grade students...). Well, as the wide spread of negative news around by the media, the vaccination rate had been so low (<20%....) The public had been so panic... the media had been so happy to comply with the hysteric act of the public...example of 3 suspected adverse reaction secondary to vaccination...  1. 16y/o high school student who was vaccinated 11/2009 and developed thrombocytopenia in 1/2010 ...unfornately the youth died despite of IVIG management...


2. 8y/o student who developed pethechia and blister over his limbs after 2wks of vaccination...


3. 7y/o boy who developed bil lower leg jerking movement(EPS like jerking) after 2 wks of vaccination...


4.Multiple intrauterine death was noted after mother being vaccinated... The opposition party had mobilized some van going around the rural area, broadcasting about negative effect of vaccination and asking the peoples not to be vaccinated... I could accept their act but there is this key person from the society of O+G who urged those in their first trimester not to be vaccinated and those in the 2nd and 3rd trimester to withold and consider their risk before being vaccinated...I despised his act as what he did was talking without evidence(talk X#$%@%%%)  - at least he did not quote any research.....


As a medicine man, I could only shake my head... The public had wanted an unreasonable guarentte from the govt - a 6 months or long lasting healthy life after vaccination or else ....The public had however forgotten their request of vaccine 4 months ago.


There was this high school student who died of H1N1 lately despite of tamiflu used. The family wanted to sue the hospital and the media report the news like don't know what...Negative negative news... No one appreciate what their was given, remind me of those student who never say thanks after their jab....


The public had fablized the medical profession... they thought if they follow the rules, take the medication they would be immortal..well, unfortantely, only the GREAT ONE could decide....all we can do is assist......condolence to those who had lost their love ones....
