Quite right about that. We’ve seen rabies vaccines go from yearly, to every 3 years, and there’s talk that titers really show that every 7 years could be effective. I do not vaccinate my own dogs every year, but I have titers drawn.
I have to wonder if there’s some connection between the rise is so many allergies, like peanut, that we never used to have, and the changes in the immunization schedule that started adding so many new vaccines and doses.
I have a niece who has severe peanut allergies and her brother is mildly autistic-he developed the autism symptoms after receiving his vaccines. (Given his sister’s severe allergy he never should have been given vaccinations.)

In spite of the problems reported with Gardisil, it is on the list of “adult vaccinations” being promoted.
It came out this week that peanut allergies could be greatly reduced if parents introduced them to babies sooner. I suspect a lot of those food time tables have caused a lot more problems than they solved.
