Great video!
Anyone had that enormous injection??
Tell us your story.
Bet that girl's bottom was sore for a week. Penicilline always hurts+++. I know - I'll never forget having two of them! One in each buttock! The needles are like harpoons!

That's nothing. When I was a kid, before the Salk and Sabine polio vaccines, they were giving 10cc injections of Gamma Globulin. That penicillin shot is only 3cc's. You can imagine what 10cc's of a thick solution int a little buttock must have felt like!

What does the polio vaccine and GG have to do with PCN?
Why were you given a GG injection? Were you exposed to hepatitis? You do not get the IPV and OPV at the same time. Either one or the other. IPV is injectable polio, OPV is oral usually sublingual, or back in the 60's, a drop on a sugar cube.
How old are you Jay...Polio vaccine has been around more than 50 years, and GG does not treat the same as polio, or PCN.

Uh-no. In the early 1950's, before the polio vaccines were developed, Gamma Globulin was found to slow the very rapid spread of polio at that time. It wasn't a permanent preventative like the Salk and Sabine vaccines, but it slowed the spread considerably. It was given in large doses, usually 10cc's in either one or two injections. I was indicating that a 3cc penicillin injection was rather small compared with the 10cc GG injections thousands of kids received (including me) in the early '50's.
