Whereas if my child gets one of the viruses or diseases from not being vaccinated it can be fatal to not only my child but spread to other children who are not vaccinated. The evidence to support my viewpoint is that there is still no concrete evidence supporting the theory that getting your child vaccinated causes things such as autism and that it will weaken their immune systems. I read “According to a 2003 report by researchers at the Pediatric Academic Society, childhood vaccinations in the US prevent about 10.5 million cases of infectious illness and 33,000 deaths per year.”( "Vaccines ProCon.org", n.d., p. xx) If you were to not get your child their vaccinations they are at risk for getting the disease/virus and this could be fatal, and it is not only bad for them but could spread to other children as well this increases the risk of spreading the disease whereas if they were all vaccinated there would be no risk of
But your doctor may advise you to not take drugs of any kind. Hepatitis B: In most cases, hepatitis B goes away by itself within 4 to 8 weeks. More than 9 out of 10 adults with HBV recover completely. However, about 1 out of 20 people who get HBV as adults will be "carriers" and have chronic (long-term) infection with HBV. Nine out of 10 infants who get HBV at birth will have chronic infection unless they receive immediate treatment.
Therefore it is strange that they are making informed choice. The concerns raise as the more children will not receive the vaccines the bigger chances of breakdown in ''herd immunity'' as the hypothesis says. In some cases people are resistant to new ideas because it depends what they are representing. In this case many parents believe that vaccination put their children at bigger risk than not having them. There are some statistics that WHO has published showing that children under 2 years old not necessary ''develop immunity following vaccination''.
These two are mumps and rubella. Combining three vaccines into one will eliminate the time it takes for parents to visit clinics for the vaccines as well the needle sticks or inconvenience and pain of the injections. Many parents object to immunization for rare childhood diseases of which measles is included. I think a lot of this resentment of vaccinations have to do with lack of education. The first dose of the measles vaccine must be given at the beginning of the first year and continue till the child is six years old.
[18] 12. Young girls should not receive mandatory vaccination for HPV (human papilloma virus). The vaccine was approved in 2006 and the long-term effects are unknown. Since approval, adverse side effects such as severe allergic reactions, Guillain-Barré syndrome, spinal cord inflammation and pancreatitis have been reported to the US Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System. Although these adverse reactions may be rare, they are not worth the risk since the vaccine only protects against two of the 15 strains of HPV that may cause cancer of the cervix (20-40 years after an individual is infected).
It also have some very harmful effects on humans and nature. It creates large amount of pollution, destroys the nature and also increases the diseases in human societies.

The FDA issued a warning about benzocaine, the active ingredient in oral pain medications such as Orajel on April 7, 2011. The FDA warns that benzocaine use has the potential to induce a potentially fatal side effect whereby the blood carries significantly lower amounts of oxygen. This condition, known as methemoglobinemia, can in rare cases cause death or brain injury and damage to the body tissues. The potential for life-threatening or long-term damages from methemoglobinemia due to benzocaine is further compounded in very young children. Free Orajel Lawsuit Review Benzocaine products do not currently contain warnings of methemoglobinemia, which the FDA stated as a grave cause for concern since consumers, parents and caregivers are in most
In fact, cases of all vaccine-preventable diseases are down more than 97% from peak levels before vaccines were available. Vaccines are now available to protect children and adults against 15 life-threatening or debilitating diseases. • healthier mothers and babies. At the turn of the century, 140 of every 1,000 babies born alive died within their first year of life. Today, that rate is 6.3 deaths per 1,000 live births • family planning.
The seasonal flu shot protects against influenza that research show will be most rampant during the upcoming season and the traditional flu shot is made to protect against three flu viruses, H1N1, H3N2, and an influenza B virus (Seasonal Influenza). Research for these vaccines are quite extensive. Trials require more than ten thousand participants and these participants have to be healthy which arise ethical issues (Webster 353). Long production cycles cost the vaccines companies a costly amount, ranging from $300 million - $1 billion and getting a vaccine registered may take 8-12 years for major viruses (Webster 355). Research for
Pamela Seagraves ENG COMP II 1/15/12 Maria Mahon Mandatory Vaccinations In the United States, vaccines have reduced or eliminated many infectious diseases that once routinely killed or harmed many infants, children, and adults. Regardless of this, more and more parents are becoming concerned about the long-term effects of vaccines and much debate is going on whether vaccinations should be mandatory. This debate is one of the most impassioned issues generated by advocates and opponents of mandatory vaccinations. Advocates believe in the safety of vaccines and that there should not be exemptions, while opponents are adamant that vaccines are a hazard to the health of children and that to make it mandatory would violate human constitutional
