(aap.org) One example the many myths would be that a baby’s immune system could not bear so many immunizations. This is false. All evidence suggests an infant could take up to 10,000 vaccines in one sitting. This is due to the amount of antibodies that are in the baby’s blood and the rate that the baby’s cells are regenerating. Exposure to the…

effects from vaccination are mild, such as soreness, swelling, or redness at the injection site” (The History of Vaccines).Vaccinations tend to cause life-threatening allergic reactions. Yet, if these individuals would not have received these immunizations then the chance of receiving one of these reactions could be lessened or reduced by about half the amount. Symptoms such as fevers, rash and achiness can be prolonged after receiving vaccinations. According…
