Vaccines do not cause asthma, but do save lives

Recent studies don't support any association between vaccination and development of astham or allergies.

Here's what one report had to say about immunization against diptheria, pertussis (whooping cough) and tetanus:

"CONCLUSION: The DTP-IPV vaccination was not related to reported atopic disorders (asthma, allergy etc.) at primary school age."

A review which examined many previous studies found no association between pertussis vaccination and these disorders:

If as you say you have limited time to check into all this, why just consult antivax sites? Try balancing your investigation by checking out sites like

which are interested in promoting good health, instead of promulgating false fears and bad science.
