RE: The History Of Vaccines Series
Informative read. I realized I shouldn't be eating my breakfast while reading it once it started talking about scraping the pus from cow udders.

Sorry about that, I am an ex dairy maid and nothing makes me sick...except huge open wounds on human beings. I get sympathy pains really bad.
I almost pass out when they take my blood from a finger prick; needless to say I would never survive in a medical profession. :)
I've butchered and cooked all sorts of wild/farm animals. Delivered all sorts of farm animal babies, sewed up farm animal wounds, cut of the balls of young bulls, fixed infected goats feet...I thought nothing could gross me out or make me feel faint....fixing human wounds totally freaked me out...although I was told I would develop an immunity once I started working ... After I started my lab work I found research was far more interesting than working on humans. I liked lab work but my research and reading regarding medical history stayed with me, I decided this form of medicine wasn't my cup of tea.
