I'm interested to see everyone's views on vaccinations, child immunizations, etc. It has been an on going question but it has been on my mind recently. Please be respectful of others views even if you don't agree with them.

I 100% agree with vaccinations, they have proved beneficial in the past and continue to do so.

Of course. Vaccines are actually helping a lot to rid the world of certain terminal illnesses like smallpox and polio (for the most part).

I don't mean this in any harm or ignorance, but the sad part is that: people are either not going to or children "not allowed" to because of certain religious beliefs. Also, some people still believe in that "vaccinations makes you get mild autism" crap. Even if it WAS true, it's not that bad - autism isn't a contagious disease, lol.

It really bugs me when people bring up the autism argument, as it is based off lies. https://youtu.be/3C7lTt3EnlY, I found this is a good video explaining it.

I agree wholeheartedly. It's not true, yet some people refuse to disbelieve it! I'd rather get mild autism as a child then be riddled with small-pox or some other crazy disease that could possible wipe out the nation. I mean, I have ADHD, moderate anxiety, and mild depressive disorder which many people would think is horrible to live with - when really, it barely even affects me. All I have to do is take care of myself and the depression stays away.
 
Not sure. I've never had any because of some experiences my sister had which convinced my parents not to.

I never intend to have any children, so I'm not gonna be in that position.
 
Yes, I believe in not dying of smallpox.

I have literally never heard of a case where a child got severe life-crippling autism from getting a vaccine. Like seriously I want to know where that argument came from.

And I agree, there is nothing wrong with having autism, even if were "catchable" by vaccines. I have a form of autism called aspergers, and there isn't anything wrong with me. It's not like endangering my academic or social life in any way.

However, I could see if someone were to oppose vaccines because of religious beliefs, like christian scientists though I personally think that's a load of crap too.

Exactly. I've had a boyfriend with that and have a few friends with it as well. I didn't/don't see them any differently than a "normal" person.

Wow...I Just don't even know what to say to that - especially to how the US is experiencing more than 2007. Gosh why are our people so silly sometimes -__-
 
I 100% support vaccinations. They are effective in making viruses disappear!
 
Yes, if you'd rather have a dead child than an autistic child I don't want anything to do with you.

I second this.

Those people who believe in that autism thing, and actually avoid vaccinations because of it seem like they would seriously piss me off.
