VACCINATIONS – A boon more, A Curse less

1. VACCINATIONS VACCINATIONS– – A A boon boon more, A more, A Curse Curse less less Medical Technology has advanced in the time span of last 100 years and even more so. Since, the time of having Vaidya’s (Ayurvedic Doctors) Indian Medical has been developed. The touch of western culture has also given their contribution for the advancement. We try to live our life disease free & vaccinations have contributed much in making it happen. But, despite of the facts of advantages of vaccinations, people still have questions & concerns. So, let’s take a road path of Vaccinations & its story. In 1798, Smallpox was killing hundreds of thousands of people every year. It had become a Life disease, having no cure. Jenner, today known as the creator world’s vaccinations, saw that Milkmaids Threatening Edward who is of first

2. who had contracted cowpox (A Less Deadly form of the Diseases) didn’t get Smallpox. That’s what gave a click idea to Edward Jenner to create a vaccination for others fighting for Smallpox. After years of research, analysis & testing, Edward Jenner created the vaccination for Smallpox, which saved many lives. Vaccines are like training exercise for your body. They use dead or damaged viruses to provoke an immune response, without having to get sick. From there, your body has time to develop the proper andtoadies and form immunity. Since their implementation, diseases like Smallpox, Polio, Measles, and Mumps & Rubella have been eradicated. But, as the saying goes,” Change is Inevitable”, the evolutions of these diseases is also inevitable. As you become immune to invaders, the invaders adapt to try to get round your immunity. Each year scientists have to try to predict which flu strain will be the big one to vaccinate against. Many people say that vaccinations cause Autism (A disease, unable to socialize). There was also, a paper name “The Lancet” was published which claimed a link between autism & measles, mumps & rubella vaccine (MMR). However after a lengthy investigation it was discovered the author, “Andrew Wakefield”, had fudged the data with many other shady things. He was punished in every legal possible way. By the time Wakefield’s misconduct ad came to light, with his punishments, the damage was already done. Now he is held up as a martyr by anti-vaccine proponents. Scientists are not sure the real reason behind the autism, which is now understood to be a spectrum of developmental disorders, but none of them suspect vaccines.

3. People are afraid of what they do not understand. A human nature no one can run off. So a common tactic used by anti- vaccine proponents is to just list ingredients and let fear do the rest. For E.g. preservative called thimerosal was attacked as the cause of autism. It is an antifungal agent used to preserve multi-dose vitals of vaccine. It also happens to have a mercury atom in it. We are taught that mercury is bad, but its’ actually complicated. We forget that something we eat every day in every meal i.e. Sodium Chloride Initially, a kind of a.k.a. Salt, is made of two of the most volatile and deadly elements on earth. The mercury in thimerosal is ethyl mercury, which gets flushed out of the body. Unlike its brother, Methyl Mercury! Which is the bad mercury. In a well-meaning but ultimately harmful effort to appease the misinformed mobs, the CDC (Centers for Diseases Control and Preventions) stopped using thimerosal in vaccines, even after an investigation found no link between it & autism. The ones who truly suffer are people in developing nations who now have to pay more money to buy & maintain single-dose vitals of needed vaccines. Another chemistry fail is the calling out of hydrochlorideAcid in vaccines. But, if we remember back to our PH Scale, acids can be added to an alkaline solution to make it PH neutral. Which exactly what they are doing. People do not understand that the difference between good and bad is about dosage. Even drinking too much water will kill you. For e.g. in 2007, a woman died after drinking 6 liters of water in 3 hours. The amount of scary sounding chemicals in a vaccine is well within FDA

4. approved guidelines. Take formaldehyde, which is a natural metabolic byproduct. You’ve produced more in your body while reading this article than you will ever get from a vaccine. Now you must be asking yourself that if they are so wrong, why are still people who are against vaccines? Ironically, the anti-vaccination movement is a lot like the pathogens that vaccines protect us against. Their fear campaign is an ongoing arms race against facts. They simply change their topic to something else. But, we even cannot ignore them because an important benefit of vaccination is an effect called Herd Immunity. If enough people are vaccinated against a disease (Usually 83%-85%), it has trouble spreading. This protects people who are not vaccinated, either because they are too young or have an allergy or other underlying medical condition. In herd immunity, the vaccinated protect the unvaccinated. As more and more people opt out of vaccinating, the risk of outbreaks increases. But, just like “every coin has 2 sides”, even vaccinations have side-effects. The benefit/risk ratio is one of the highest concern of any medical intervention out there. But, like any medical procedure, they carry some risks. Most of them are very mild for e.g. Polio Vaccinations side effects are redness, headache, Tiredness, Muscle or joint pain, Fever, or nausea in some cases. The more serious reactions are incredibly rare, like 1 in a million. But people are sometimes bad in assessing risks. They drive without a seat belt out of fear that it will break their collarbone in an accident. Like diseases, fear and misinformation spread easily those who aren’t vaccinated against them.
