My roommate, a first year med student, tells the story about learning about fecal-oral transmission of HepA. A classmate leaned over to him and whispered, “I got the Hep A vaccine…so I can eat all the poop I want!”
Oh to be a first year again.
This is a medical weblog--a collection of thoughts about medicine, medical training, and health policy--written by a fifth-year medical student.
I recently stopped blogging, as I graduated from medical school and I'm now a physician in my residency training in New York City. But feel free to read and enjoy!
(To get rid of this thing, just wave your mouse over it. Ta da!
Spoken like Divine (of John Waters fame).
I feel like making the same type comment when people don’t want their daughters to get the HPV vaccine because then they will want to have premarital sex. Did they suddenly start eating poop after the polio vaccine?
I work at a group home for developmentally disabled adults….I have come to sincerly hate poop.
Hey Man,
I enjoy your blog. I came across this today and though I would share. Pretty damn hilarious.
