There are a couple of points here, Melissa:
1. Exposure here is very controlled. Read the protocol very carefully. It's based on over a decade of solid research in puppies in the real world. NONE of them got sick.
2. The studies are there that show animals vac'd for parvo often have worse recovery rates when they get parvo than those who were NOT vac'd. This again, is coming from real world veterinary practice data.
So, no. Not playing with fire here. Using solid data to get the best outcome possible.
p.s. read #2 again: parvo vaccinated pups still can and do get parvo. Don't assume otherwise. Those same parvo-vac'd pups often break with coccidia diarrhea shortly after they were vac'd by the breeder.
