Thanks, Lynn for the interesting report in the United Kingdom
by Canine Health Concern
Is Your Pet Dying From Over-Vaccination Due to Vet Economics?

"Nationally and internationally, companion animals (pets) are being
over-vaccinated - a practice that is resulting in vaccine related
deaths, severe illnesses, reduced longevity and large monetary costs
to guardians (pet owners).

The most common practice is the annual administration of rabies
vaccine, based upon the oft-stated supposition that an annual booster
is necessary to maintain the vaccine's effectiveness. In reality,
there is no research substantiating that practice, and veterinary
schools and professional associations increasingly are embracing a
triennial administration standard."

In the USA, the vaccines are 3-year as approved by the FDA.
However, several states, including Florida and Texas, have a manditory
yearly vaccination law. WHY, since the Federal Government has shown
that the drug is effective for a minimum of at least 3 years?

This website also has more good links, for those wishing to
"Be Informed".
