Description

This list is intended for those interested in taking action to prompt the State of Tennessee to close the loophole in the law that allows counties and veterinarians to override the state's anti-rabies law, Title 68, Chapter 8 which specifies a 3 year rabies vaccine to be given no more often than once every 3 years. This group seeks to raise awareness about the known duration of immunity of the rabies vaccine, the adverse reactions associated with it, and to ensure that Tennessee's anti-rabies law calling for a 3 year rabies vaccine is consistently enforced statewide.

Discussion of the duration of all vaccines is open however the Rabies Vaccine will be the main focus of this list.

This group fully supports The Rabies Challenge Fund.
Please go to: http://rabieschallengefund.org/ for details on how you can support this mission.

List Owners, Moderators and List Contributors are not liable for the use or misuse of any advice or information provided.
The reader alone, assumes all liability for the use or misuse of information obtained from this list.

All new members are ask to post a brief introduction.
All posts must be on topic and respectful - no flaming.
No veterinary advice given, only the discussion of the scientific evidence available and the state law that recognizes the three year Rabies Vaccine.

If you are not in full support of this effort, then this group is not for you.

Re: welcome
According to Charlie Beauchamp local ordinance in Williamson County requires once a year vacc., as it is in Davidson County. I haven't looked into this myself.
