why do some asians have weird scar marks on their arms from shots?
Question:
Answers:
they were vaccinations when they entered the county.
Other Answers:
I think those shots leave those marks because they were a long time ago and for that reason they leave bigger marks.
They are marks of small pox vaccination.In the 50's and 60's there were cases of small pox in asia.Now it has been eradicated world over.
Not just Asians, this was a shot that was given in the upper arm for most people before 1965-70? It think it was the tuberculosis one but I forget. Reading the person before me, I think she's right, it could be the smallpox one. Anyway, something they don't give any more is why younger people don't have the scars.

Most of the people I know a little older than me have those little round scars on their upper arms.
probably like when they came into the country or when they were sick they got a shot that had a long needle or something
Most of the people my age have those marks. It is from some type of air gun used to give the shots. (small pox, i believe) The shots were actually given in school when I was in early grade school (mid-70's).
