Q: How necessary is the RV vaccine considering to CDC it only killed a incredibly small amount of children prior to vaccine approval?

Ans: Great question! Rotavirus is a viral diarrhea. In third world countries it is the #1 cause of death for dehydration from diarrhea. In the US in cities we have access to iv fluids. Also for Rotavirus we have homeopathic remedies that really help stop it. Chinese herbal formulas also help.  I also have a personal issue with a vaccine that has such narrow parameters- can be given only at 2,4, 6 months; not after 8 months. I do not recommend the vaccine.

Thanks for asking!

We love helping improve the health of your family.
