Poor baby... continued prayers for them all.

I wonder if they have regular/required tetanus shots over there. Seems like that might have prevented an infection.

I hope she can recover fully. That's so sad.

Yes, they do. All of Europe does.

In France they give them at 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 16-18 months and 6 years as a combined vaccination of diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis, and Haemophilus influenzae b. The booster at 6 years old is DTP only.

Tetanus vaccine coverage in France is 98%, versus 94% in the US.

Thanks, JanetElaine!

Tetanus doesn't seem like it would be one that parents would opt out on anyway.

I was hoping to confirm here what I heard on tv last night. I wasn't watching really, so I don't know what channel it was! Rats.

Anyway, I heard that his little girl was sick because of e-coli, not a rusty nail. (I thought that would be strange if her shots were up-to-date.)

I'll go google around and see what I can find.

I have also heard that she is sick with ecoli.
