Usually you want way more solution in the syringe than needed to help you clear any air bubbles (that would be a Bad Thing)- but you don't want to overdose either - so the excess is dumped. You're not paying for it.

Which reminds me ... with this crazy volume of shots ... I would worry about some n00b "nurse" screwing up the basics more than about the actual stuff. Sure "anybody can do it" .. that's exactly the problem.

Yup. One of my friends has an arm injury from how she received a vaccine many years ago. Really opened her eyes up to the dangers of vaccinations.

Also: when pushing for volume in a hurry ... quality tends to suffer . If nothing else, people are lining up for a sub-par service they would never accept otherwise. Well I guess that's how vaccinations have been for many Africans for decades - we're truly becoming the Third World.
