A new study shows that a fetus' immune system is more robust than previously believed.
But allergy researcher Rachel Miller of Columbia University, New York, and her colleagues found that about a third of babies born of vaccinated mothers were equipped with cells tailor-made to fight off the flu virus.
"This indicates that the baby's got a pretty well-developed immune system by the time it's born," says immunologist William Burlingham of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
I've noticed something about studies regarding fetuses: they often disproved widely held assumptions about the unborn child. He is usually shown to be much more developed than previously thought. I remember there was a sensation in the 80's when it was shown that unborn children were affected by parents reading to them in the womb. We thought there was no communication with an unborn child. That is obviously false.
I wish we could have more studies about unborn children, so we can truly understand what he is all about and dispel the many myths about him.
