What kinds of eggs are flu vaccines made from?
The viruses that are put into flu vaccines must first be grown in a lab to produce enough to make a vaccine. The virus is grown in eggs during that culturing process. Most commonly they are grown in chicken eggs. The vaccines are not made from the eggs, but rather from the virus particles that are grown in the eggs along with the medium for administration, etc. See related questions below for more information.
Should a doctor charge to administer a vaccine and the cost of the vaccine?
My opinion is that no, doctors should not charge to administer a vaccine and the cost of the vaccine. If this was the case, not so many people would go to get shots to keep them immune from disease. If less people get their shots, then the whole population with become less healthy. #doesthishelpany #ihopeso #sorryifitdoesnot

Can you get the flu shot while taking Flagyl?
There is no drug interaction problem between the flu vaccine and Flagyl. But whether you get the vaccination while still taking the antibiotic may depend on why you are taking antibiotics. If you have a current infection, it is usually better to wait until that is cleared up before taking vaccines. But, each situation can be different, and this is a question that the doctor who prescribed the antibiotics should be asked to know what is right in your case.
Unless there is a specific reason your doctor wants you to wait, usually the only reason not to get a flu shot while taking antibiotics would be if you have an active infection with a high fever over 101 F. Get your flu shot unless you have a high fever, or the doctor recommends delaying the immunization due to your specific condition.

Older children should get the following vaccinations if they did not receive all recommended doses when younger: * Hepatitis B series * Polio series * Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) series * Varicella (chickenpox) series - A second catch-up varicella shot is now recommended for children, adolescents, and adults who have previously received one dose.

The additional vaccines for which your child should be assessed include: * Influenza * Pneumococcal polysaccharide (PPV) * Hepatitis A == * Tetanus-Diptheria-Pertussis vaccine * Meningococcal vaccine* * HPV vaccine series * Hepatitis B vaccine series * Polio vaccine series * Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine series * Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine series * Influenza vaccine * Pneumococcal polysaccharid (PPV) vaccine * Hepatitis A vaccine series * Recommended for previously unvaccinated college freshmen living in dormitories For more information, see the related link.
Who invented cholera vaccination?
No
Snow's contribution was an improved understanding on how Cholera was spread, i.e epidemiology.
Since cholera is a bacterial disease, the only way to cure it is to wait for the body's natural defenses to defeat it and antibiotics to shorten the duration. During Snow's time the germ theory of disease was not yet accepted so antibiotics were not even known - consequently he really couldn't develop a cure for it. Treatment is mostly a matter of keeping the victim hydrated and keeping their electrolytes from getting out of balance.

How many cases of swine flu are there in Kansas and how many deaths?
There is no current data about this any more. There may be some ongoing cases in limited locations around the world, including in "The Land of Ahs." However, the specifics and counts of cases are no longer being tracked by CDC, WHO, the US states, and most other countries, now that the pandemic has been declared over. Influenza cases are monitored, but specific H1N1/09 counts (and the lab tests needed to isolate the specific virus to be able to count them correctly) aren't being done. Influenza cases in general are monitored, but statistics are not being kept for H1N1/09 cases separately from other influenza types for reporting any longer in the post pandemic phase.

Has the Swine Flu vaccination been properly tested?
Yes, in many studies as well as by experience of the use of the seasonal flu shots made the same way. The Swine Flu vaccine is safe, as safe as vaccinations for any other illness, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Studies prior to the US approval of the vaccines were done by the manufacturers and by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with monitoring by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). All approved the vaccines as safe and effective for use as directed.
The new A-H1N1/09 Pandemic Flu vaccine is being produced just like the regular seasonal flu shot, which has a very high safety record, so there is no reason to expect any different outcomes than we have seen with the seasonal flu shot for decades.
