Funny story: In 1976 we were assigned to military duty in Ottawa, Ontario -
capital of Canada. The base clinic insisted we get our "shots" for foreign
travel - malaria, cholera, etc. Talked them out of malaria shots but not the
cholera, to which I reacted with flu-like symptoms. My nursing 13-month old
was fine and wasn't given the shots. Malaria and cholera in Canada??? NOT.
Somebody needed a geography lesson. Rules is rules.
They also wanted to calculate sending our household goods by BOAT from San
Antonio, Texas to Ottawa. We pointed out that a truck shipment would probably
be more efficient.
Linda Smith, wondering if I be worried about yellow fever in Yellow Springs,
Ohio??
private practice, Dayton OH - currently crusted with snow, beautiful snow.
