I thought that this was not needed but it seems that I was wrong. For some reason it seems that people are not taking their Small Pox vaccination safety brief seriously. Recent stories about people getting tattoos shortly after getting the shot are coming to my attention. It should be notied that everyone getting the shot is instructed on the things that you cannot do after getting the shot.<\/a> So things like this should not be happening. <\/p>\n

I want to get a tattoo placed on my smallpox vaccination site. How long should I wait?<\/p>\n

Before getting a tattoo, wait until the smallpox vaccination site has fully healed, the scab has fallen off, and the skin is intact and dry. It may take longer than the average 30 to 60 days after your vaccination before the skin is ready for tattooing. Please contact the VHC if you have additional questions.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But it seems that some of you are not getting this through your head. For example when I see post like this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nQ (In Air Force).
\ncan you get a tattoo in the opposite arm of where you received a smallpox vaccination?<\/p>\n

A.
\nYes you can get inked up, but just give a week just to be on the safeside the vaccination has no counter action \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Q Reply to A;
\nthank god. i got the vaccination last week on wednesday and im scheduled for a half sleeve on the opposite arm this saturday. i just wanted to make sure i wasnt gonna start some epidemic. good to know. thanks<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Then there is this one too<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Q;
\nDoes it really matter if i get a tattoo while i have the smallpox vaccine? Like seriously. I want one so bad. BEFORE I leave the states, I dont trust foreign countries to tat me up hhaha<\/p>\n

A.
\nI am no medical expert <\/strong>but from what I’m reading the vaccine and the tattoo shouldn’t interfere with each other. You can get a vaccine on the same day you get a tattoo.<\/strong> Make sure you go to a safe parlor.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I am worried because people are doing things like this and creating a risk to everyone<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also the consequences from getting a tattoo after getting a Smallpox vaccination are no joke. Range from being sued by the CDC, the Tattoo Studio and anyone else who was put at risk by your actions. Not to mention a possible Dishonorable discharge from the Military. This is not a Joke.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
