Yawanna, just to be certain, I just went back and looked it up to be certain. I suspect you are talking about the "conversion," frequently seen in those vaccinated, especially those vaccinated frequently. When that occurs, chest x-rays are obtained to definitively rule out the presence of actual disease vs. the conversion factor.

aaaahhhh... thank you

In my field of endeavour, we had to look into vaccinations for staff given the population they work with. I am notorious for enforcing health and safety precautions "put these latex gloves on NOW!!"

When I asked at my doctor's office about a TB vaccine I was told I would thereafter test positive if vaccinated, so they don't do them. Thank you for the clarification
