My daughter is pregnant with her first. She's anxious as any new mother would be. She dropped this request on the wife and I the other day. Said we needed to get our TDAP vaccine for the sake of the baby. My internal medicine guy said it should be OK. All the gov't sponsored web sites say it's OK, but thought I'd ask here to see if anyone had any issues with it. And no, before 2020 I'd never thought to have to ask this question.....

So you're asking if its safe for you and your wife to get a Tdap vaccine? Sure. Been around a long time.

Got one last year prior to the birth of the little girl my wife and I adopted at the recommendation of my doctor. Wanted it to avoid the risk of whooping cough being contracted by the baby. Quick and painless, experienced no issues afterwards

This is what I was hoping to hear. I've had the tetanus shot many, many years ago.

Yeah this is the hot new things in the baby books is to require grandparents to get TDAP boosters

I’ve given hundreds of them and about 95% of them were all older folks who’s kids ask them they get it before the baby is due

Never had anyone come back with issues or complications

Doctor says it's okay.
Research says it's okay.
Strangers on the internet: source of truth.

The lies during the COVID era has caused a MASSIVE credibility problem for the medical industry.

Unrelated to this particular vaccine (or most vaccines, in general), but a lot of "strangers on the internet" have had a lot of things right, especially in response to treating/preventing COVID. Just putting that out there

I referenced this in the OP. Prior to 2020, not sure I'd even ask this question. All the Internet data on it is from the CDC. You know them? Same clowns that denied acquired immunity......

They double down on Orwellian medical advice when they prescribe irreversible sterilizing medication and mutilate children with gender dysphoria. Those are just the obvious examples—not even getting into nutrition, the food pyramid, seed oils vs animal fats, etc.

Anyone wants to know exactly how corrupt tha American medical system is,I’m reading this book-Sickening
How Big Pharma Broke American Health Care
By Dr. John Abramsom.
It is truly a disturbing book.Pharma has corrupted all the major medical journals that Drs.rely on to keep up with advances in medicine-New England Journal of Medicine,Journal of American Medical Association,Lancet,all of them.

He doesn’t even get into all the corruption that Fauci and NIH have fostered with the 6 billion dollars they dole out to medical institutions,universities,etc.
Furnish grants to scientists to do research,if the results aren’t what NIH desires,no more grant money.
