Today, Tuesday October 2nd, the US Federal vaccine court awarded a staggering 61 million dollars to a family after their baby was severely injured after receiving the DTaP vaccine. The court documents show that hours after the baby received the vaccination in 2007 she started to have seizures, abnormal breathing, irregular heartbeats, and at 6:05am the next morning, her heart stopped completely. At which point she needed 6 minutes of CPR to be revived. Sadly, she has been on life supporting machines ever since.…
The authors used a lot statistical evidence to support their claims. For example, authors say, Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 's annual school immunization assessment showed a general increase in state-level NME rates over time, from 1.6% in 2009–2010[26] to 2.0% in 2011–2012[27] to 1.9% in 2012– 2013,[28] an overall 19% increase (data for 2009–2010 and 2012–2013 are shown in Table 2). For 2012–2013, state exemption rates ranged from a low of 0.0% in Delaware to a high of 6.4% in Oregon. (Wang, Clymer, Hayes and Buttenheim,…
adds that vaccinations are not a one-size-fits-all approach, although the vaccination schedule is required by law. “The vaccination schedule is the same for every U.S. child, even though it 's well known that all children are not the same biologically.” This article also adds an additional frame regarding the overall safety of vaccines, mentioning current scientific evidence is not sufficient enough to determine the safety of vaccines. Additionally, the frame also mentions that many of the current available studies are biased. Even the renowned Childrens Hospital of Philadelpia published an article questioning whether vaccines are safe.…
Based upon these current findings, the FDA strongly recommends vaccinating the target population: nine- to twenty-six-year-old females and males. The CDC will continue to be vigilant and monitor safety data on an ongoing basis. Nevertheless, it is helpful to remind ourselves that regardless of how well studies are conducted, gray zones of risk exist. The history of medicine has shown us that such unfortunate events do occur for unknown reasons, and research is underway to study if genetics and environmental factors have a role to play in such rare and serious events. One should always balance the greater good with these potentially minimal risks when evaluating the advantages offered by new and emerging medicines.…
Colorado Children Required Vaccinations for Schools Vaccination possesses the ability to expunge specific life threatening diseases that affects people and consequently have killed thousands. Parents will never have to treat their children for these life threatening diseases again once their children are vaccinated. Colorado requires all parents to vaccinate their children; however, in the state law of Colorado, parents are allowed to make exemptions. The fault goes to the parents if their children ever acquire these diseases, but the majority of the children will not become sick.…

School and daycare vaccination requirements have become a hot topic in recent years. All fifty states require students to have vaccinations against specific communicable diseases. With these requirements came a set of exemptions for religious, medical, and philosophical reasons which differentiate from state to state (State School Immunization Requirements and Vaccine Exemption Laws, n.d.). Currently all fifty-one locations (includes the District of Columbia) requires vaccinations for public school students. Forty-seven locations require vaccinations for private school students (State School Immunization Requirements and Vaccine Exemption Laws, n.d.).…
Mandatory vaccination is effective in increasing the overall participation of medical workers in receiving vaccines compared to systems without mandated vaccinations. Non-mandatory health care services in Australia during 2013, had only 56% of their health care workers vaccinated against influenza. (Heinrich-Morrison, McLellan, McGinnes, Carroll, Watson, Bass, Cheng, 2015). However, the healthcare worker influenza vaccination program located in the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center obtained a 100% participation with either successful vaccination or justified exemption.…
“Vaccines save children and their parents time and money.” (Vaccines ProCon.org). The subtitle used in this article makes the reader well aware of the pro that vaccines can save time and money. The authors of the article writes underneath this subtitle, “Vaccines cost less in time and money to obtain than infectious diseases cost in time off of work to care for a sick child, potential long-term disability care, and medical costs.” Parents do not take into consideration the consequences of non-vaccination.…
Childhood Vaccinations Annotated Bibliography In this day and age there is a lot of controversy over whether it is still necessary for all children to receive vaccinations, and whether vaccines are responsible for developmental disorders in children. There are some that say parents that don’t vaccinate their children should be jailed, however there are parents that allege vaccinations have led to developmental disorders in their children, and in some cases even death. The Center for Disease Control (CDC), Food Drug Administration (FDA), and nearly all health organizations say that the allegations are ludicrous.…
For centuries, vaccines have saved millions of people from death, yet parents still choose not to vaccinate their children even when no evidence indicates the presence of neurological problems after vaccinations. Varieties of vaccines exist against a large amount of infections, and most states require vaccinations for entering public school and daycare centers. More than just health benefits occur from vaccinations even society and the economy benefit from children being vaccinated. When comparing medical technology of the previous century, it is easy to see that vaccinations are the greatest success when it comes to saving lives and benefiting the…
PRO- The mother refused to allow the doctor to vaccinate her child. “I trust Jenny McCarthy more than you about vaccines.” She said to her doctor. Her ignorance exposed her child to life- threatening diseases and spent lots of money for medication, all because she believed that vaccines cause adverse reactions like autism. I strongly believe that you should vaccinate your child, because the doctor knows what they are doing, not a celebrity.…
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimated that 732,000 American children were saved from death and 322 million cases of childhood illnesses were prevented between 1994 and 2014 due to vaccination.1 Vaccinations could be considered one of the greatest medical achievements in modern development. Because of the invention of vaccines, childhood diseases have been largely eradicated all over the world.2 Vaccinations outweigh the potential risk of diseases that they are created to prevent, therefore for the safety of the population they should be mandatory. With medical study, technological advancements, and mandatory vaccinations, such events can not only be controlled, but prevented and stopped. In 1796, Edward Jenner invented the…
Are we safer than at anytime in the past? https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/04/14/theres-never-been-a-safer-time-to-be-a-kid-in-america/ Christopher Ingraham, the author of “There’s never been a safer time to be a kid in America,” does an excellent job at providing statistics, which back up his claim that America is indeed the safest it has ever been for children and teens. For example, he claimed that the overall mortality rate for children and young adults has seen a significant decrease since 1935, and backed it up with the fact that there are only 30 deaths for every 100,000 children, ages 1 to 4, compared to that in the 1930s when it was 450 deaths for every 100,000 children. Within the article, Ingraham also claims that the number of missing people have gone down by 40% since 1997 and also that between…
The CDC has estimated that vaccinations of children between 1994-2014 created a net savings about $1.8 trillion in costs including money saved by preventing lost productivity due to disability and early death. The U.S. saves approximately $27 per $1 invested in DTaP vaccination. Example 3: In addition, vaccines save the lives of children by preventing diseases.…
