Thursday, October 17, 2002A federal committee voted Wednesday to recommend vaccinating about 510,000 hospital workers against smallpox, bringing its earlier proposal closer to the Bush administration's suggestion. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted 8-1 for the plan, which amounts to vaccinating about 100 workers at all hospitals in the nation that could handle smallpox patients. At least they're beginning to see the light. Now, how long will it take the Academies Pediatrics and Family Physicians to pronounce that their policy is exactly the same? posted by Sydney on 10/17/2002 07:18:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
