Hmm... I have been attempting to research this particular form of injection myself. There is amazingly little information to find on the subject ANYWHERE, and the information I have found seems to be a conflicting mass of contradictions.
As to the gauge & length of the needles, the information I have found on the (increasing unreliable internet) seems to state medical practitioners used thick gauge, and rather long needles. This would seem to imply that the needle needed to be inserted deep into the abdomen. Far beyond the skin and muscle layer. I always assumed the vaccine had to be administered into the abdominal cavity, or else, directly into a particular internal organ. Do you yourself have any recollection of the length of needle used for your procedure, or have any memory at all as to the sensation of how deeply the shot was administered? This might give a clue as to which one of the conflicting mass of descriptions available online might be closer to the truth.
I am amazed there are practically no official accounts, images, or photographs available relating to this particular shot. It must have been a very common medical procedure, and yet, 30 years on, its as if it was the stuff of fairy tails! one of my pet peeves about research!!
Anyway, any further information you are able to remember, or gather, will be very gratefully received!
