Becky Sounds on the right track, but unfortunately, there are some quite severe diseases that are extremely rarely for whom there are vaccines that do nothing for the long run except affect that animal. Peoples says it all for some: some unfortunate animals literally cannot take the risk of vaccines because of other problems. Dragonrain has summed it up best and almost perfectly.
If your vet says your animal MUST be vaccinated every year you might see another vet. Meds of any kind may be harmful to animals and well as humans--often to their detriment.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
