No, vaccine reactions are not a myth. In 19 and 1/2 years with
ferrets we have had: one allergic to Fervac, one allergic to Fervac
and Imrab, two allergic to Galaxy and Fervac, and another whose
allergy source i can't recall but his is milder. Except for the last
individual all had anaphylactic reacitons so it was vey scary
those times.
If your vet checks with the vaccine manufacturers they will tell
about such reactions, so he can learn right from the source.
