"Yes, physicians have been directed to halt routine immunization of all children with tetanus boosters. I think it's stupid to NOT booster our kids. So, I disregarded that piece of advice from CDC and gave it to the few adolescents we have in our practice (3 doses). I had a bottle of vaccine we were keeping for rainy days...just call me Noah!"

Your post makes no sense at all. It implies that there isn't any vaccine available unless "Noah" decides to hoard some.

So, what happens when a kid steps on a rusty nail? Mom takes him in for a tetanus shot -- which would logically be available off the shelf for just such incidents.

The prosecution rests.

You would think so wouldn't you. Not the case. Better take him to the ER and hope they have tetanus available. It is in very short supply.
