Children Vaccinations
Kasey Schellhammer
Thesis
"Children vaccinations are mandatory to attend public and private school, are
not linked to autism or other diseases and are used to avert future illnesses."
It is a parent's choice to vaccinate their children and the government should not have
a say in what a parent does with their child.
Vaccines are harmful and ineffective. There is no evidence to prove that these kinds
of vaccines actual prevent illnesses.
Mandatory does not mean healthy. Vaccines do not guarantee a healthy life and
these injuries could occur several years down the road.
Vaccinations are against "my" religion. Cultural and philosophical reasons prevent
families from getting mandatory vaccinations.
Conclusion
Not vaccinating is both very dangerous and selfish. State government should
continue to back off mandatory immunization laws, and local schools and health
facilities should do a better job of enforcing these rules.Taking every safe precaution
should be the number one priority when becoming a parent.
