Hi All,As you know, Lactnet is an infant feeding specific list.We discuss vaccination from time to time but only in connection to breastfeeding. If members wish to continue a more general discussion, please do so off list.Karleen Gribble(for the listmothers) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lactation Information and Discussion" To:"[log in to unmask]" Cc: Sent:Tue, 23 Dec 2014 18:32:13 +0000 Subject:Alla-question a Alla, Why do you give fewer doses of Hib and Prevnar? Is it not as effective in older children? That doesn't seem to make sense as they are now offering Prevnar to adults? Or is it because they are less likely to contract those diseases or less likely to have a serious outcome if they do contract the illness? *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
