I'm not anti-vaccine, I just wish there was more criticism on the area. Of course we should vaccinate for polio, measles and whatever other deadly diseases vaccines have eliminated. However just because we've had many successful vaccines, that doesn't mean they all have been, and it doesn't mean they are all going to be. For example the HPV vaccine, which turned out to have way too many cases of both non-threatening and serious side effects. Scientists say that it hasn't been tested well enough, yet still the same vaccine is offered to every 14 year old girl in the nordic region. I have also heard of rumors of a vaccine being given to every child in Denmark for a disease that can only affect boys. I also wish that someone would bring of the corruptness of the pharmaceutical industry, and the medical bias of certified doctors in the vaccine debates. Because mostly people just talk about whether we should get them or not, instead of whether there are vaccines we shouldn't get, and if so, how do we protect the public and children especially from these vaccines. Side: Pro
The claims vaccines are unsafe or causing autism spectrum disorders have been resoundingly disproven. Furthermore, there are infants which genuinely cannot be vaccinated (or yet) , like newborns, or infants with specific medical conditions, and so they depend on the pack immunization, meaning they depend on the health and immunizations of the other kids in the community so they themselves will have a fighting chance of not catching something horrible. And finally, we have already witnessed in recent years the outbreak of disease considered erradicated simply because too many people in a community scorned vaccines. Side: Pro

I can accept that specific individuals may have specific medical reasons why they cannot receive vaccines. But that's different than simply saying they're fraudulent or dangerous to the general public or the cause of conditions they've been proven not to cause. Good luck. Stay healthy. Side: Pro

You had to be allergic to something in them and you need to tell a doctor about that before they give you the vaccines. Also not all vaccines have the same ingredients, obviously. Vaccines are what saved millions upon millions of lives from common diseases that are now basically extinct. Polio is a good example. Side: Pro
