Whether vaccination is safe, there are 2 schools of thoughts: 1. Vaccine is said to cause autism, or brain damage, or multiple sclerosis, or seizures. 2. Vaccine is safe and should be used to protect from diseases. I have doubts before on this too, but I read up Dr. Sears book to understand more about vaccination. Dr. Sears mentioned vaccinations are safe as the mercury contents are below the toxic level. You can borrow the book from NLB and read up to understand more. My approach on vaccination is, I try to delay those not compulsory one e.g. Pneumococcal after my child turns older. Afterall I feel below 1 year old, babies take in so many compulsory vaccinations already. For chicken pox and Hep A I will wait till they are much older then get vaccination.

Doctors say the vaccines are safe, but as other medications and drugs, they can cause side effects too. You can use keyword 'Adverse Effect Following Immunisation' or AEFI in short for google search. There are statistics showing success of vaccination, and also cases of children fell sick after taking a jab.once you understand the pros and cons of vaccination, then you can decide what is best for your child.
