the side effects, he noted,
seemed to be connected in
any way with the vaccine.

negative has been said about
it, it will be very hard to
reassure people".
When asked by Bayfield
Reeve Ed Oddleifson how
'soon after a shotsuch
reaction would occur, Dr.
Mills said it would likely take
place within the first 24 hours.
"After that we wouldneed
proof that reaction was in-
deedconnected to the vac-
cination," the MOH said.
Goderich-Reece Stan Profit
asked how long the vaccine
could be kept.
Dr. Mills said it was un-
certain but certainly the shelf
life was two years and under
refrigeration could be longer.
Dr. Mills said that to date
about 4,000 shots had been
administered in Huron with
very very few reactions. All
of those were minor, he
suggested, citing one sore
arm, one case of fever and
chills and a case of an upset
stomach. All of those he said
could be considered "normal
reaction' to that type of
vaccination.
The Medical Officer of
Health Medical Officer of
Health talked of the vaccine
in terms of "highly purified"
and "high quality".
