Addicting Info – The MMR Shot Seriously Hurt This Woman’s Son– Here’s Her Opinion Of Vaccines Today

When the anti-vaxxers bring out their fears about the side effects of vaccines, and use that as justification to not vaccinate, they’re not just ignoring science. They’re also ignoring the fact that the diseases against which vaccines protect can be devastating, and they will affect far more children than those who suffer rare side effects and complications of vaccines.

Besides that, to vaccinate, or not, isn’t a decision that affects just the one family making the decision. It affects society as a whole. This is not the same as the decision to feed your child canned fruit or fresh, send him to public school or private, or things like that which are, and should remain, a parent’s choice. A child who can be vaccinated, but isn’t, puts those who cannot be vaccinated at risk. They also put those for whom vaccinations were less than effective at risk. In the end, the decision not to vaccinate, based on bad science and unfounded claims, is a very selfish one.

Liz Savage gets it. She doesn’t just get it for her own child, but for everyone else out there who is protected because of her decision. Her son suffered a rare, serious complication from his vaccines, and she chose to go ahead with his vaccination schedule, instead of becoming an anti-vaxxer. The anti-vaxxers could take a lesson from her.
