Chariot  +  298759 Wed, 29 Nov 06 09:26 AM I am looking for English translation to the following meaning: this person is not allowed to have a flu vaccination if he has a chronicle illness and at the time of having a flu vaccination he is suffering from the symptons. this person is allowed to have a flu vaccination if he has a chronicle illness and at the time of having a flu vaccination he has no symptons. a lowering of the platelet count as a reaction to a flu shot. The lowering is temporary, the platelet count will go up to the normal level in a short period of time. Thanks. Chariot Joined on Mon, Apr 24 2006 Full Member 344 Translation

	nona the brit  +  298772 Wed, 29 Nov 06 09:45 AM Are you talking about a specific person or just people in general? At the moment you are only talking about one specific man. Anyway, if one specific man: This person (man/patient? might be better than 'person') should not have a flu vaccination if he has a chronic illness and is showing symtoms at the time of vaccination. This person (man/patient?) is should have a flu vaccination if he has a chronic illness but no symptoms at the time of vaccination. A lowering of the platelet count is a reaction to a flu shot. The lowering is temporary and the platelet count will return to the normal level in a short period of time. nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,743 The name says it all.

	Chariot  +  299111 Thu, 30 Nov 06 08:30 AM I am talking about people in general. These are words in a flu shot agreement which warns people of possible reactions to a flu shot. I noticed the use of "show" in your explanation: "This person...... is showing symptoms." I wonder if show can be used this way: "The symptoms are showing at the time vaccination." Thanks. Chariot

	Chariot  +  299112 Thu, 30 Nov 06 08:33 AM Sorry, the blue coloured highlight prevents people from reading. "The symptoms are showing at the time of vaccination." Chariot

	nona the brit  +  299135 Thu, 30 Nov 06 09:59 AM You need to re-phrase these then as at the moment it sounds as though you are talking about a specific man. (You shouldn't use 'he' to refer to men and women, for example). Do not administer the flu vaccination if the patient has a chronic illness with active symptoms at the time of vaccination. The flu vaccination may be administered if the patient has a chronic illness but no active symptoms at the time of vaccination. A lowering of the platelet count is a reaction to a flu shot. The lowering is temporary and the platelet count will return to the normal level in a short period of time. nona the brit
