Rappie Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I have been at the World Small Animal Veterinary Association Conference for the past 4 days, and haven't been near my computer at all if I've missed anything please let me know. It was a fantastic experience that has left me feeling most inspired! For everyone out there that has discussed, or even just wondered about current vaccination protocol there has now been an official (independent) presentation of international vaccination guidelines. It is a bit of a "watch this space" development, but they will be formally published next month and available to the public soon after that. Admittedly, it has taken a while, but change is coming to Australia (even if it is slowly). On a more general note, I am starting a new job in the next few weeks so may not be around on the forum as often as usual. Please feel free to PM questions, or alert me to threads or email me if you wish. If you have PM'd me recently and I haven't replied I do apologise - please just send me another message! I do plan to get back on track soon - I am willing to post on most threads if thats what people would like, or I can continue just watching and offer occasional input, you can sort that out amongst yourselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-time Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Glad you enjoyed your trip Rappie Please keep us up to date date with the new vaccination protocols - still trying to convince vets that we vaccinate too often Good luck with the new job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Yeahhhh for moving forward regarding vaccinations Thanks for the update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Anne~ Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Congratulations on your new position Rappie. Still Sydney metro? Goodnews on the vaccinations. Can you advise what the new protocol will be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappie Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 Puggles - it's a 3 year vaccination protocol based around core vaccines and selecting any additional vaccines as appropriate for individuals. I haven't actually seen the document, but I gather it is similar to the AVMA guidelines but updated and not as US centric. New job is still Western Sydney - but a lot closer to home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
