Just out of curiosity, does antrhax vaccination guarantee immunity?? I'm
just wondering because I am among the 10% of folks who will never, no
matter how many series of injections they put me through, be immune to
hepatitis...I've had the full series 3 times and still not immune. Not a
good thing for a nurse...so I had all of my children immunized as babies
just in case I should contract hepatitis through an exposure at work.

Mosquitoes<br><br><br>> I hope something is

itch or swell<br>> at all. Lasted the rest of that & subsequent
summers when I<br>> had<br>> high exposure to mosquitos.
When I went away to college, my<br>> exposure<br>> dropped
& so did my immunity, darn it.<br>> ----- Original<br>>
