My Vaccine Records

Source: Boston Globe: 4/16/1955-San Diego, CA- Three people from one family giving polio shots… Danny Vasquez gets shot from Dr. Virginia Caspe. Woman seated in dark dress is Dr. Lillian Raven, giving shot to Tommy Henry. In foreground is Dr. H.W. Wuerthele, giving shot to Linda Tauzier, 7 and 1/2. Dr. Wuerthele is father to the two women doctors. They are giving polio shots at the Garfield School.
I was born in June 1955. These are the shots they were pushing back then. At the age of three I developed severe allergies. I was tested for tree and grass pollens. I was allergic to over half of them. I then began a regimen of weekly allergy shots that lasted for over 3 years from 1958 to 1961.
