What to do about vaccination when traveling with children?

[Irene de Villiers]

Per the Polio Global Eradication Initiative:
In the north [Bauchi Local Government Area (LGA), Borno and Kano states] especially yes, and so far in 2013 there are 49 cases of all 3 strains combined, and a major OPV vaccine effort is happening now early Oct in the North.

Nigerians get ill with it because of the harsh conditions there.
CDC says:
"A small number of people (4 to 8 people out of 100) will have flu-like symptoms. These symptoms usually last 2 to 5 days then go away on their own.
In rare cases, poliovirus infection can be very serious. About 1 out of 100 people will have weakness or paralysis in their arms, legs, or both. This paralysis or weakness can last a lifetime."

It spreads through contact with saliva or feces, if it is swallowed. (Touching infected toys and then eating a sandwich without hand washing and so on. Rule" Keep hands away forom mouth unless washed, have saniwipes or plastic gloves in handbag/purse or pocket if in danger areas with infected people.)

My cousin is a homeopath whose husband was badly crippled by polio. I say WAS, as after she got him on matched remedy, he recovered almost completely, he just has a very slight limp if you look for it.

[She happens to specialize in helping people with paralysis, using homeopathy, physiotherapy and touch-for-health systems. When she has completed a consult, she goes to the window, opens it, and strokes her arms, each with the other hand alternately, from shoulders to fingertips (one way only) a few times, then shakes off the negative energy downwards out of the window - does it between cases and at end of cases. Says she can get quite ill if she retains all the negative energy she removes from clients.]

I'd use a preventive nosode if it was me going to a nasty illnes area. Plus some Moducare 6 caps a day - NEVER missing a day - to keep my thymus healthy in general.
Why? It is everywhere. Is she expecting to get bitten or something?
Hypericum, and Ledum are prophylactic and can be used after a tetanus incident (puncture wound).
If I get a puncture wound, I just apply both topically and by mouth.
I'd for sure take a first aid homeopathy kit if I was going there - or anywhere:-)

A little preparation can remove all the worry. She's smart to plan.

Namaste,
Irene

Thank you everyone for all your help and support, I am SO grateful to be part of this newsgroup

She is a young mom, feeling overstretched from working and being a mom of 2 young and very active boys. So it is easy to get into fear.
She now tells me that she is so worried that her kids will be exposed to Yellow fever and typhoid.

She is aware that keeping hands clean and certainly washing hands before putting anything into the mouth is important, but, the younger child is crawling and teething, so he puts everything in his mount. It will be hard to keep his hands clean.
Both children will be on their constitutional remedy by then, and I am reviewing the work done on HP as I have never come across a case like this before.

Thank you again
Kind regards

Lucy

When I take my cats to a show or send them by air or other risky areas for infection, I use a dose of Aconitum napellus 200C. I also use it if I feel I am coming down with something. Per my cousin (who was my best homeopath teacher) this nips infection in the bud:-)
