As a father of a 6 month old, who goes or her 6 month shots today, I want to weigh in here. They don't get 70 DIFFERENT vaccines. They might get 70 shots, but a lot are duplicates.
At this point in her life, she's had the following at 2 months, 4 months, and again today: Influenza, Hep B(also given at birth), dtap(tetanus, whooping cough, etc.), Polio,rotovisurs(which is given orally) and PCV(don't really understand this one.
So while you could say she's receved 11 vaccines, with 5 more today for a total of 16, it's actually 5 vaccines, just given at different times.
One more thing to add, I think there are a total of 16 recommended vaccines through adulthood.
In conclusion, Jenny McCarthy was super hot back when she was in Playboy, and that's about it. She's a nutcase.
