NEW!!! Vaccination Protocol by Dr. Jean Dodds

All of the 27 Vet Universities in the US have followed
the immunization protocol as suggested by Dr. Dodds
for years. All of the Hospitals will be changing their
Vaccination Programs apparently. This is welcomed news
and you should print this out and take it with you to
your Vet should you need reinforcement against over-
vaccination.

VACCINATION NEWSFLASH (CIMDA SUPPORT)
RE: J. Dodds,DVM, vaccine protocol

I would like to make you aware that all 27 veterinary
schools in North America are in the process of changing
their protocols for vaccinating dogs and cats. Some of
this information will present an ethical and economic
challenge to Vets, and there will be skeptics.

Some organizations have come up with a political compromise
suggesting vaccinations every 3 years to appease those who
fear loss of income vs. those concerned about potential
side effects. Politics, traditions or the doctors economic
well being should not be a factor in a medical decision.

NEW PRINCIPLES OF IMMUNOLOGY

Dogs and cats immune systems mature fully at 6 months.
If a modified live virus vaccine is given after 6 months
of age, it produces immunity which is good for the life
of the pet (i.e.: canine distemper, parvo, feline
distemper) If another MLV vaccine is given a year later,
the antibodies from the first vaccine neutralize the
antigens of the second vaccine and there is little or
no effect. The titer is not "boosted" nor are more memory
cells induced. Not only are annual boosters for parvo and
distemper unnecessary, they subject the pet to potential
risks of allergic reactions and immune-mediated hemolytic
anemia. There is no scientific documentation to back up
label claims for annual administration of mlv vaccines.

Puppies receive antibodies through their mother's milk.
This natural protection can last 9-14 weeks. Puppies
and kittens should NOT be vaccinated at LESS than 8
weeks. Maternal immunity will neutralize the vaccine
and little protection (0-38%) will be produced.

Vaccination at 6 weeks will, however, DELAY the
timing of the first highly effective vaccine.
Vaccinations given 2 weeks apart SUPPRESS rather
than stimulate the immune system.

A series of vaccinations is given starting at 8 weeks
and given 3-4 weeks apart up to 16 weeks of age.
Another vaccination given sometime after 6 months of age
(usually at 1 year 4 mo.) will provide LIFETIME IMMUNITY!!!
