Enraged victims of the MMR Vaccine fight for the government to release evidences on the MMR Vaccination and how it is connected to Autism. While a lot of children are getting their regular vaccinations, there are some parents who avoid getting their child vaccinated, in fear of the regression of their child’s health. Vaccinations were developed to improve the health of children; however, the benefits of the vaccinations, like the Measles Mumps and Rubella (MMR) Vaccination, are now being evaluated as some believe that it causes more additional problems.

That way, side effects like fever, headache, and fatigue can be avoided. Studies also show that spacing out vaccines reduces the likelihood that children will complete the full schedule of immunizations. And the government shouldn’t intervene in personal medical choices-- most diseases that vaccines target are relatively diminished in the bacteria such as Smallpox and Polio.
Elements in the vaccinations such as Mercury, egg protein, Neomycin and Thimerosal could be harmful to children, if large amounts are injected into the body. Egg protein, especially, if the child is allergic, could have an allergic reaction to the vaccination. The allergic reaction could be severe allergic reactions and sometimes lead to death if not treated right away, depending on how severe the allergy is. While vaccinations were developed to protect the greater good, many are starting to believe that the vaccinations are useless, such as the Polio and Chickenpox vaccinations, and cause disorders in children. However, once again, studies show that the antigens formulated in the vaccine is reduced to meet the limits of what the immune system can withhold. “The number of vaccines given and the additives in vaccines have all been proven to be safe, including the mercury-containing compound Thimerosal” …show more content…
An example of this is the during the Columbian Exchange, when the Europeans were doing trade with the New World, bacteria were also brought over. Smallpox, one of the many deadly diseases that were transported to the New World, diminished the large population very quickly. Even though vaccinations were not invented back then at the time, this shows that if it were to be a useful tool against the deadly bacteria, the people would have survived this time in history because they were immune to the
