All around the world millions of parents have made the decision to leave their children without vaccinations: which protects them against some of the deadliest diseases that are so easily preventable. These vaccinations are not only safe and save millions of lives, they also prevent you from getting the disease and if enough people get vaccinated can eradicate the disease completely. With this huge advance in modern medicine why wouldn’t you get vaccinated?

But if you can those people are even more reason to get vaccinated and save the people who cannot save themselves. There are many people around the world who use these examples as a reason not to get vaccinated but if too many people opt out of getting vaccinated for no good reason than the chance of an outbreak will increase, and may have terrible results. Getting vaccinated is such an easy way to help other people; and it could wipe out the disease completely for future
