Avoiding Children Vaccinations

[kcwolf]

The April issue of Pediatrics

The measles virus has resurged as parents elect to not vaccinate their children on unsubstantiated fears. Although studies disprove fears of autism and other wild claims, viruses are on the rise. These selfish and uneducated parental actions don't just put themselves and their children at risk, but also their communities, which includes infants who are too young to immunize.

As Buffalo Springfield once sang: "Paranoia strikes deep......."

My wife and I have two sets of friends that are doing this. It's hard to argue with them once they get it in their head.

Seriously, I have a 6 yr old and looking at this pic of the child is heart shattering. I couldn't even imagine. I am thankful for a home, my son and his health, and a few bucks in my pocket to pay the bills. That's all I need.
