Vaccination - For or Against?

Question

Recently in the news there has been coverage of people who refuse to get their children vaccinated. I am just wondering what your veiw is and if you don't agree with vaccination then why? What could possibly be worse than ensuring children are guarded against disease?

Answer 1

Polio builds Character.

Just look at F.D.R.!

Answer 2

children die every year from being vaccinated.

Answer 3

With over 25 years of Pediatric Nursing and seeing what I have seen, I would NEVER Vaccinate a child these days.

NO CHILD can come out healthy after over 50+(FIFTY PLUS) Vaccines.

You do  know that there are over 50 Vaccines given to babies and kids these days right?

Many young and new parents do not have a clue what it is like to bring a perfectly healthy child into a doctors office for a "shot" which is really more like 5 shots (or 3 in one) and a couple of others and to have a screaming child that then has seizures and THEIR LIFE AND YOUR LIFE  IS NEVER THE SAME AGAIN.

NEVER THE SAME AGAIN.

NEVER THE SAME AGAIN.

And to top it off, the doctor and the company that makes the Vaccines are NOT liable for the ANY complications or deaths that are caused from ANY Vaccines. You as parents will be left holding the bag.

Think of it this way ... While not every person who smokes cigarettes will get lung cancer, not evey child who gets vaccines will become neurogically impared or Autistic. However, we know that cigarettes DO infact cause Cancer. It is only a matter of time before this is admitted. In the meantime, parents who are vaccinating, YOU ARE PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH YOUR CHILD.

Unfortunately, being that there is an ongoing funneling of BIG $$$ for vaccines, for children injured by vaccines, for medications given to children injured by vaccines, for ONGOING care of these kids, the government has a huge stake in allowing the drug companies all of this profit. It is easy to figure out... just follow the money !

Ohhh... and just for some food for thought. So you really believe that your pediatrician gives their own children all of the recommended Vaccines on the CDC Vaccine schedule?   I doubt it highly. Do you think they are going to tell you that? I doubt that even more highly.

Why? Because the need to keep their license so that they can work and earn lots of money. They make money when they vaccinate your children and they make money when your children become injured from vaccines. It is  financially a win/win situation for EVERYONE but the child and the parents.  

Answer 4

I am for it, though I hate to see my babies get shots. If we stop vaccinating children these horrible diseases could come back. And they are far worse and more dangerous than any of the childhood vaccines. I'm sure those diseases had a far higher death rate back before vaccination than the vaccines have had. Though I am kind of iffy on the chicken pox vaccine. It may be a miserable thing for a kid to have, but chicken pox is very dangerous to have as an adult. And if they do not continue to get the vaccine in their adulthood, they could catch chicken pox with bad consequences.

Answer 5

To many, to soon, tainted with mercury that affects young brains.

Protecting against diseases which no longer threaten us. We need to use some common sense.

Autism is worse than ensuring a child is protected against a disease he or she will never be exposed to any way.

Answer 6

it is a must.  They are afraid on seeing some news from other countries and also inside the countries.  i am agreeing with the vaccination and i think no alternative found against vaccination.  if they found alternative, why they are coming with needles and medicines.

one thing they can do. They can use test check whether it is allergic to someone or not.  That is the only solution, because the vaccination makes allergy to someone and not all.

Answer 7

I'm for it. I'm old enough to remember when many of these childhood illnesses were still common and I saw what they were capable of doing. I can remember when there were outbreaks of measles or mumps at my school and all the other students worrying about whether they were going to get the diseases themselves.

To those people who think it is better to wait until children are older to have them vaccinated, they need to remember that small children are just as capable of getting the diseases and they often suffer from them much more severely than older children and adults. Diseases like diptheria and whooping cough used to be major killers of babies and small children.

Answer 8

I don't agree or disagree with vaccinations myself. I didn't get my daughter vaccinated until she was in preschool, and I will not vaccinate my son until he enters preschool. I don't think that it is right to force people to vaccinate their children or think that they are ignorant for choosing not to. The choice is always made by parents who think that they are doing what is best for their children. I chose to wait in order to give my childrens immune system a chance to grow and develop organically. If I needed to place them in childcare prior to preschool I probably would have had them vaccinated sooner though.
