That eats raw fish or whatever and gets a brain worm is not intelligent enough for me to listen to. There is a reason most of us wont eat that stuff. Raw fish can contain a number of parasites. Eating raw meat of any kind can contain parasites. And, anyone driving around with a roadkill bear cub in the back of his truck, while contemplating eating said bear cub is not going to give me health advice. Even raw fruits and vegetables need to be washed to make sure there is nothing on them. As far as vaccines are concerned, I think Ill continue to take my chances while being vaccinated for anything thats going around.
