Immunization is a way of creating immunity to certain diseases by using small amounts of medicine to kill or weaken diseases. It is important that children get their shots at the appropriate time. This is the way to keeping your child healthy. There are many diseases out there and you do not want your child to go through life being sick. Some parents do not or wait to get their children vaccinated because they are scared their children will have a reaction to the vaccine. The risk of them having a reaction is smaller than then the risk of them getting a disease because they did not get the vaccination.
I looked up India's shot record and I notice that their children get their shots 2 weeks after USA children are scheduled to get their shots. I also notice that immunization is important to them as it is to us.

It is very important to vaccinate your children and yourself against disease. Chicken pox, measles, whooping cough, and polio were killers of children until laws made vaccinations mandatory. A reaction to a vaccine might be less deadly than a full-blown disease.
ReplyDeleteI agree that it is very important to make sure that all children have their shots on a timely manner. I am grateful that schools will not let children enroll in school until their shots are up to date. Their are so many sicknesses and illnesses already within the school system any thing we can prevent is wonderful!!
