Vaccinations

I would not think so just medical details!

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends for travel to Israel that you make sure you are up to date on the standard vaccinations, and also recommends vaccination for Hepatitis A & B. See the related link for more information.

If you are coming from the US there is not specific requirements for Vaccinations for Abu Dhabi; However, it is good practice to have the following vaccinations when doing international travel of any kind:

HEP A & B
MMR
Typhoid
Tetanus/Diphtheria

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a country specific list of recommended vaccines. Check there (link below) for the countries you wish to visit. If you are travelling to Germany, for example, CDC only recommends the usual complement of vaccines plus Hepatitis B.

Routine Recommended if you are not up-to-date with routine shots such as, measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine, diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus (DPT) vaccine, poliovirus vaccine, etc. Hepatitis A or immune globulin (IG) Recommended for all unvaccinated people traveling to or working in countries with an intermediate or high level of hepatitis A virus infection (see map) where exposure might occur through food or water. Cases of travel-related hepatitis A can also occur in travelers to developing countries with "standard" tourist itineraries, accommodations, and food consumption behaviors. Hepatitis B Recommended for all unvaccinated persons traveling to or working in countries with intermediate to high levels of endemic HBV transmission (see map), especially those who might be exposed to blood or body fluids, have sexual contact with the local population, or be exposed through medical treatment (e.g., for an accident). Typhoid Recommended for all unvaccinated people traveling to or working in Southern Africa, especially if visiting smaller cities, villages, or rural areas and staying with friends or relatives where exposure might occur through food or water. Rabies Recommended for travelers spending a lot of time outdoors, especially in rural areas, involved in activities such as bicycling, camping, or hiking. Also recommended for travelers with significant occupational risks (such as veterinarians) for long-term travelers and expatriates living in areas with a significant risk of exposure, and for travelers involved in any activities that might bring them into direct contact with bats. Children are considered at higher risk because they tend to play with animals, may receive more severe bites, or may not report bites. Note: Rabies vaccine is temporarily in limited supply. For updates on the rabies vaccine supply, please check the Rabies News and Highlights page regularly.

The first vaccine was for smallpox created by Edward Jenner. He noticed that milkmaids exposed to cowpox didn't get smallpox. He devised the idea of intentionally exposing someone to cowpox and then smallpox to see if, in fact, the person would not get sick. Jenner coined the term "vaccination" because vacca is the Latin root meaning cow in his publication of his results in a medical journal in 1798.

However, Lady Mary Montagu published information about smallpox inoculation link prior to Jenner, noting that it was practiced in the Orient. At the same time, Cotton Mather was demonstrating the use of inoculation to prevent smallpox in America.

Inoculation is not quite the same thing as vaccination. Inoculation uses the live disease while vaccination used a similar but weakened variation of the disease.

Later Louis Pasteur, a more well known French pioneer in microbiology in the 19th Century, invented the first rabies vaccination using the information and trials of the scientists who preceded him.

On May 14, 1796 ---- Jenner learned of the connection between smallpox and the related cowpox--milkmaids could get cowpox from cows, but they would recover quickly. But the big thing was that those who had once gotten cowpox managed to escape the symptoms of smallpox even when it spread through their communities. Other doctors and scientists had noticed this as well, but Jenner was among the first to actively pursue the connection. Through various tests, he proved that exposure to the cowpox virus caused one's body to become immune to smallpox. He published his findings, and they quickly attracted attention and verification.

His ideas were not accepted by everyone. Some of the medical profession refused to accept his results. There were problems and mistakes. Sometimes the vaccination was not done correctly. Sometimes the hospital mixed smallpox fluid with cowpox fluid. No one would publish his work. He did not have enough data to support his claims. Jenner had to pay for this to be done. Some even believed that they might turn into cows.

As of now, there is no widely available vaccine for AIDS. However, ongoing research is being conducted to develop an effective vaccine to prevent HIV infection.

Advantages:

- practical orientation

- can reveal whether policies work/do not work

- explains underlying logic behind the programme

- it can improve programme effectiveness

Disadvantages:

- conflicts of interests among stakeholders

- costs of evaluation: it diverts resources from the programme

- apart from possessing research skills, researcher has to play different roles: collaborator, trainer, group facilitator etc. in order to smooth conflicts of interest

- it is difficult to generalize based on evaluation results

First, you should probably write a question about what you want to know. I have an idea. Maybe you could buy a few fish and study them (eating habits, growing, etc.), then write out a poster telling the results of your question.

It might feel like a little pinch then a little throbbing, but not too much. It usually hurts only a bit more than a mosquito bite, but less than a bee sting when the needle goes in.

Since you put this question in the topic category of H1N1/09, you are possibly asking if a flu shot will make your arm hurt, and the answer is yes, it can. Most people have a slight local reaction to the vaccination, and if you get it in your arm, it can be very sore to the touch and also hurt when you use your arm.

The best thing to help it get better faster is to move your arm by using it as usual. Some people ask specifically to have the shot put in their dominate arm (right handed or left handed) to "make" themselves have to use it, even when it hurts, because they know that will make it better faster. It should be better in a matter of just a few days, unless you aren't using it much, so if it hurts longer than a week, you should check with your health care provider to be sure there is not a local infection from the needle or other unusual side effect.

The theory behind the vaccine is that it is made up of weakened viruses but that form antibodies, which in turn build up the immune system that will fight the introduction of any pathogen the vaccine is intended to prevent.

i don't know that's why i was askin someone on this site

After taking the GCB vaccine it has been common to show positive in a TB testing , most Middle eastern people have taken this shot, there is a confusion some times in the USA over this issue,

1. It was known that people that had recovered from Smallpox could not get it again.
2. Various doctors attempted to use ground up Smallpox pustules to give other people this same immunity. However too many got full blown Smallpox and died.
3. Edward Jenner observed that Milkmaids did not get Smallpox and that cows got a mild disease called Cowpox similar to Smallpox.
4. Jenner tried ground up Cowpox pustules on people and proved they were now immune to Smallpox.

When you are getting the shot it just feels like a normal shot, it pinches a bit but it's fine. The shot doesn't hurt that much after you get it, it is just mostly sore. This could depend on how sensative your skin is though too. But on a scale of 1 to 10 on pain I would only give it a 4. You'll be fine, just don't think about it. :)

You can get seasonal flu shots from a Pharmacist at a drug store without a physician's prescription in the US. The vaccine is not available in quantity to individuals over the counter.

There is no vaccine yet for the 2009 Swine Flu (Influenza A, Novel H1N1) available. The drug manufacturers who usually make vaccines now have some of the virus sent to them by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and have begun the process of developing vaccines for this strain of the virus. They anticipate having this available for use in the US by the next seasonal flu season. It may also be available for use in the Southern Hemisphere during their flu season this summer. The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) will be working with the manufacturers to approve the safety and efficacy of the vaccines once developed and put into human trials.
