Suzanne,

My experience at UW was all positive. They are very organized, compassionate and appreciative that you decided to participate. The days were long, I traveled from central CA to Seattle and back the same day mostly. A lot of poking, but they did treat me very well. I enjoyed visiting Seattle, what a great city.

I did not have any side effects other than a little fatigue and minor inflammation at the injection site after the vaccine was administered.

Best of luck next week and tell Doreen hi for me! And if you have any other ?'s, please ask.
