The problems with overvaccination first became evident in cats, as cancer began developing at the injection site. When I was at the vets last time for vaccines, there was a little dog figure drawn in their charts and the point of vaccination was clearly marked on the diagram, so that future vaccines will be given in a different spot. They are also giving more vaccines in the leg, because if cancer does develop, the leg can be easily amputated, thereby stopping the progression of the cancer. | That's scary
