Subject: How's your Dutch? (Vaccine Query)
Thanks for the replies. I don't think I was very clear in my first posting. We recently received evidence of a previous MMR dose given to a prospective healthcare student in Holland in the form of BMR (Bof, Mazelen, Rodehond). My cousins have already told me that this is the MMR and internet searches indicate that the names correlate with Mumps, Measles and Rubella. I want to know if there is anywhere that I can check that this equates to what we use in the UK in terms of doseage before deciding whether to take antibody tests or to revaccinate this person.
Thanks
Heather

I would suggest that if this is not a UK issued vaccine it is not licenced so you would need special authority to give it.

Try Google
translate as a starter,
But you may
need to check the translation.
Have managed to get a translation from cousins living in Holland BMR (Bof, Mazelen, Rodehond) = MMR vaccine.
Please can anyone advise me whether the dose is the same as in the UK please?

Having worked in an a&e attached X-ray nothing surprises me what a gp may find in an "orifice" and not all are blunt!!
I think there is a lady in Spain's holiday regions who makes money from her ability to conceal sharp things!!! Her gp may be considered EPP!

Subject: Re: Asbestos exposure
How did the exposure occur? Reassurance is often the most positive input at this stage.
All artex ceilings, thermoplastic tiles, lots of window cills, guttering etc are made of asbestos if put in prior to 1973 and very likely for a further 20 years. Anyone who has done DIY is likely to have been exposed to asbestos.
If a company was removing asbestos there will have been an air test of levels of fibres. This required to understand the level of exposure rather than a surface dabbing. Risk is very low.
