in addition to my previous comments: if you know your co-worker well enough to ask, might want to try to find out what type of pneumonia it is. One type will kill you; the other type will make it painful to breathe and may make you very sick but probably will not. Don't remember the names. The doctor likely will ask though.
The point is that the vaccine only works against one of them, the lethal one I think... course that's the one you really want to try not to get, and yeah, preemies are very likely considered at enough risk to err on the safe side, even if she's catching up her weight now. As a side note, I finally got through to the health department and they said that a few thousand doses had tricked into New Mexico but they were doing pregnant women first, then infants and children with medical conditions THEN at-risk adults. Which makes sense considering the way the kids are dying, and besides, I can understand that I need to wash my hands often, which a 3-yo may not. But hey, they have gotten around to remembering that we're a state in the union out here finally... three cheers :) On Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 9:20 AM, Paul Ihrig <[email protected]> wrote: > > wife and i got it to weeks ago. > now i need regular flu shot. > also have a co-worker in hospital 2 times now, just went back in due > to pneumonia. > so i am thinking i would like that shot as well > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
