The only way to ensure health for all of the nation is by having primary health care (Immunization should be mandatory). Just like medicine, vaccinations can cause reactions. These reactions are normally only a little soreness or redness where the shot is given, and sometimes cause a low grade fever; however this only last a day or two (Important for Public Health). Vaccinations are monitored by CDC and FDA to make sure vaccinations and all of the ingredients used in them are safe. Before vaccinations can be licensed the FDA requires10 years or more of testing for all vaccinations. Aluminum is an ingredient used in vaccinations, but is not used in large quantities therefore it is not harmful. According to ProCon.org “Children are exposed to more aluminum in breast milk and formula than they are in vaccination.” In fact according to ProCo.org “Children are exposed more bacteria, viruses, toxins, and other harmful substances in day of normal activity than they are in vaccinations.” One side effects of vaccines is to have a severe allergic reaction, but this is extremely rare. It only occurs in one per million vaccinations. According to Sanjay Gupta, chief medical correspondent and practicing neuro surgeon “You are 100 times more likely to be struck by lightning than to have a serious allergic reaction to a vaccine.” Also, according to Ellen Clayton, M.D., “The MMR vaccination does not cause autism, the MMR and DTaP does not cause type 1 diabetes, and the killed flu vaccine does not cause bell’s palsy, and it does not trigger episodes of asthma”
