Hi Stephen - you wrote -

 I'm not orawoman, so I won't plan on join a girls night out,   but I
hope there will be a list-wide gettogether with no gender discrimination.

I'm sure they will.  And anyway, I wouldn't object to men at orawoman
night, I just think it would be fun to have us (orawomen) get together.

After all, they let men in at ladies night at clubs, so why not at
orawoman night at IOUG?  No gender discrimination intended.

Hi Rachel - you wrote -

 I'm more interested in the numbers to see if this field is less
male-centric than others.


I don't post very often, but I'm another in the orawoman category.

Hi Rachel - you wrote -

 But  I'll be there whether or not I present

I'm presenting (on a soft topic this year - management and project
management - I supervise a team of 6 at HCPS.)  And Mary Gable in Hampton VA
was talking about going, but she didn't put in to present this year.

I think we should have an official Orawomen get-together one night.

Hi Ross - you wrote -

 ...Children who have evidence of immunity as demonstrated by laboratory 
confirmation of immunity or a reliable medical history of disease are 
exempt from such requirement
 
 || This says, basically, that is it really ambiguous.lol
 
Actually, they're referring to titers (which give a laboratory confirmation 
of immunity). For some diseases, a history of the disease renders you 
immune, thus if you have had those diseases, you are exempt.
For other diseases, in certain circumstances (not childhood immunizations), 
if I remember correctly, you are not considered immunized until your titer 
reaches a certain level. I believe HepB for occupational exposure was or is 
one of those.


 After July 1, 2001, all children who have not yet received 
immunization against hepatitis B shall receive such immunization prior to 
entering sixth grade
 
 || This says, basically, that you have to have HiB before sixth grade ( 
12 years old) not..three years old
 
HiB is Haemophilus B (spelling?), not Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B is normally 
abbreviated HepB.


 I cannot, in good conscience agree that it is mandated.there are so 
many loopholes...exemptions...exclusionscaveats...
 
 It is a skein of confusion and misinformation, generated by The Board.
 
It is actually mandated, although one can get around it using exemptions as 
you note.
If I remember correctly, the VDH immunization guidelines (like, I believe, 
most state vaccination guidelines), are based on the CDC (US Centers for 
Disease Control) recommendations, not a separate determination by the state 
(or Commonwealth in this case) Board of Health.
