TB Jabs
 

My daughters just informed me they are back for year 9's. I know it was stopped for a number of years so I was surprised she told me the Y9's had had it today

I had mine (years ago obviously) but have others? I'd be interested to hear from students and their ages to see if it's a countrywide thing. Seems really odd to re-introduce it.....

i never had mine because everybody at school used to punch people where thy had their jabs and i would have just ended up getting dead armed everyday

i remember this year 11 walking up to me on the day the nurses were in with his fist clenched and i was like ha i didnt even have my jab he still punched me though :bored:

I got a jab for polio and diptheria last year (I was in Year 10) never got jabbed in Year 9 though.

I think people are silly being scared of jabs I mean ffs it don't even hurt that much. I was lol'ing at the people who were like really nervous. :laugh: /spiteful

We have them in our school later on in yr11.

I like injections though :amazed:

Yeah, was the typical thing. My daughters had her HPV jabs (well two of the three) this year and the boys threaten to whack the girls' arms :rolleyes:

Why am I not surprised rofl? :laugh:

My school doesn't do them.

But apparently we might be getting injections for Oral Sex protection.

stacey *_*

My bubby nearly fainted having her ears pierced. She's no good with needles :D

kinky bitch

i meant stacey not your bubby :L

hawkward

LOL I know :joker:

:shocked: Your school must have a serious amount of horny kids then. :laugh2:

When I had Polio protection thingy it was a squirty thing in my mouth (that sounds rood doesn't it?). Was foul

I'm getting mine next week. I'm in year ten btw...I'm not that nervous now but when it comes I know i'll be bricking it.

Thats weird cause mine was a jab O_o

But mine was for diptheria too so maybe it was different?

Probably. A lot are combined now. Like the MMR for toddlers (Measles, mumps, rubella). We used to have our rubella jabs at school as teens. Not as babies, they were seperate

umg we had this as our last one

Think I'm due a tetanus actually. She gets that in Y9 too...

Bloody hell, it never ends :joker:

That will be the girls getting HPV vaccinations then.

The same virus that causes increased risks of cervical cancer in females is also responsible for a major risk increase of developing mouth and throat cancers in both females and males(mainly males though) through Oral Sex.

Oh right. I remember last year everyone was slapping each other on the arm right after the jabs. :laugh: It hurt like hell though :(

My daughter says the HPV jab hurts like hell. They have to have three over three months too :( It's not the actual jab, it's the dead arm for over 24 hours afterwards :/

I remember the TB jab. I had it around year 10 I think. We all had to have our wrist stamped and then it made 6 red dots in a circle? A week or 2 after we then had the injection. I thought the stamp thing hurt more. lol. I turned away when I had the injection.

Yeah, the '6 needles' test to see if you'd have a reaction to the actual jab. Everyone prayed they would :laugh:
