Does synagis prevent RSV?
NO!! And any doctor who tells you this should not be a doctor! Synagis does not prevent RSV. Synagis is an immunoglobulin. It helps to "boost" the immune system so if your child does get RSV it takes less of a toll on them. Synagis works much like the chicken pox vaccine. Even with the "vaccine" you may still end up with the chicken pox.

So true! When Dakota got RSV in January while getting Synagis shots I was amazed at how many medical professionals would say something to the effect of "you know there's a shot that prevents RSV, I can't believe she isn't getting it".
Actually, you can get any disease there is a vax for, even if you are vaxed for it. Vaccines' effectiveness rate is far below what we've been led to believe. Just today I read about a mumps outbreak in the UK: 16 cases, 15 of which had been vaxed.
Khourt! Addisyn tested positive for RSV yesterday! UGGH!!!
I hope Addisyn feels better soon. I didnt know she was sick. I havent got to talk to you in a long time.
