Many people have different opinions about vaccination, and although the vast majority of parents and doctors approve this method of immunization, it seems like there are more and more people who are against it.
Poor education
The most common cause of vaccine misconception is ignorance of the basic principles of vaccination and vaccines, as well as their beneficial effects, with the emphasis on often fictitious side effects. There are various misconceptions, including unwarranted security that most diseases have already been eradicated, and children should not be vaccinated. The poor education inspires dangerous misinterpretations that the children need to gain resistance against bacteria and viruses on themselves, so the vaccines are undesirable. However, it is difficult to forget the deaths of children who haven’t been vaccinated and have developed the worst form of laryngitis, caused by a bacterium against which the vaccine is administered routinely, a Hib vaccine against H. Influenzae.
The principle on which the functioning of immunization is based is simple. In order for an organism to overcome the disease, it must know against whom it is fighting. Our natural system of defense, the immunity, is not capable of defeating all the possible bacteria and viruses that attack it. When confronting these other types, it is necessary for it to turn to another option, the adaptive immune system. It creates antibodies, the molecules over which the body will learn to defend itself. During the vaccination itself, a certain amount of weakened / dead bacteria or viruses, or their parts, strong enough to produce antibodies, is inserted into the body, and in the next contact, the organism can recognize and defeat them.
Eradicated diseases
Many very dangerous diseases are almost eradicated due to modern methods and the development of medicine. However, people sometimes forget that these dangerous and often deadly viruses have not disappeared, but thanks to the vaccines we have become more resistant to them. Rubella, measles and similar diseases are rapidly coming back in the United States in recent years, and more and more cases of children infected with these viruses appear in this country.

Non-vaccinated children do not only pose a risk to themselves, but also to people around them. The most vulnerable individuals are members of their families and people who are often in contact with them, as vaccine immunity efficacy decreases over the years.
Another myth that doesn’t have a real basis is that too many vaccines can harm the child. The doses that children receive through the vaccines are completely miserable in relation to the bacteria and viruses that surround them daily.
Side effects
Thanks to the enormous pharmaco-technological progress, vaccines are getting better and cleaner, and the side effects are very rare and mild, but the serious one could still happen still happen. Therefore, it is important to explain in detail what could happen to each parent completely because, when they occur, side effects must be recorded and monitored. Every child is an individual for themselves, and this must be respected, even if the probability of a complication is extremely small. When looking at the ratio between benefits from vaccination and their adverse effects, the conclusion is clear, as vaccines are absolutely necessary.
