if anyone else can find out more info about the history of BCG vaccinations in their country please post it, I will compile it all into my next BCG effort post

English literature on this topic is lacking

Poland's been getting mandatory BCG from 1955; at some point 7 times in life and later moved to just once. First the Danish strain, then the Brazilian strain.

7 deaths, 600 cases so far

In Australia, the broad-based BCG vaccination program originated at a time when the epidemiological circumstances of tuberculosis (TB) were quite different. Initially in 1948, vaccination targeted health workers, Aboriginal people and close contacts of active cases, especially children. In the 1950s the program was expanded to include all Australian school children except those from New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory . This policy was discontinued in the mid-1980s (1991 in the Northern Territory) in favour of a more selective approach.

So of course getting bcg vaccine is useless now, right? Had to have been in effect a long time ago?

The vaccine talk doesn't really track, Iran has used it for decades, and is the worst hit country. Also, things there are going to get even worse, tens of thousands of people have moved around for the new year, spreading it to places that for the most part wasn't hit.

good

quote:

Incidentally the cases in Quebec are far lower than they are in smaller provinces proportionate to the population (202 cases in Quebec, population of 8.4 million vs 226 cases in Alberta, population of 4.3 million). Also there's 1 case in all of the northern territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut) and 3 cases in Newfoundland and Labrador total.

"In the Canadian province of Quebec, the BCG vaccine was provided to children until the early 1960s."

that means the 65+ group would be protected

There's also stuff like immigration from places that didn't vaccinate at birth within the infected population that you wont be able to account for until someone does a comprehensive study years later. Hopefully this connection leads to more testing right now and possibly something that can blunt the effects of the roni

I think they always want you to get a tetanus booster, people injure themselves with rusty metal all the time.
