PRESENT: Hauer,Peltier,Potts, Schwab, McAllister DR. GARY MAYER Mr. Mayer, Hugo Medical Clinic, was present to discuss the hepatitis inoculation for possible vaccination of the Fire Department. Various types of hepatitis were dis- cussed along with how the types are humanly transmitted. Type "B", most commonly associated with medical personnel, is transmitted by body fluid/blood. Dr. Mayer is not aware where other fire departments are inoculated for hepatitis, mainly high risk people, but this is not to say it is wrong. A decision one way or another is strickly a judgment call, with a big consideration cost effectiveness. The series_ of 3 inoculations would cost $110.00. Mayor McAllister stated that it wouldVunfair to ask Dr. Mayer his opinion, and suggested the Fire Department listen to the tape of the meeting, and if someone still feels strongly about being vaccinated, the City will bear the cost. It was the concensus of the Council that the City would pay for any inoculations if requested. This approval would bind only the 1986 Council.
