Reviewer:Spuzz - - November 4, 2003 Subject: Mmmm! Cow side crust! OK, if not spectacular overview on how immunization occurs and how vaccines are made. You'll be interested to know how smallpox vaccines are made. With a blender too! Mmmm! Just think of that next time you're ordering a frappacino at Starbucks! Plenty of footage of kids getting shots as well. The usage of animals for testing is always appaling, but is used to a minimum in this film.
Reviewer:dynayellow - - September 11, 2003 Subject: Warning: contains sick bunnies Covers the way our bodies fight infections and diseases, and how immunization can help boost our rate of recovery.
Demonstration of the role animals (cows and rabbits) play in developing and testing the drug. Strangely, they include the test rabbits to "show" how the immunization agents work, even though all the footage from within the bloodstream is animated. The rabbits all survive, by the way.
Did you know that the smallpox vaccine came from crust that formed on the side of cows? Yick.
