Not a good idea: In less there is an actual reason to not have vaccinations, like for example, you have another child who had some sort of severe reaction following vaccinations, it is not a good idea to avoid vaccinating children at the appropriate ages. In order to maintain what is known as: herd immunity, the vaccination rate in the general population needs to be 95%. Vaccinations save lives.

No real risk: Vaccines do not cause autism.

No: There is no relationship between vaccines and autism. this has been looked at through multiple scientific studies which show no link. Any relationship reported is anecdotal and not scientifically validated. Remember autism can occur whether or not a child has had immunizations.. Posponing immunizations puts your child at risk for acquiring diseases that can be prevented.

Waste of time: Emerging data shows a link to distortion of cell DNA (codon changes)in kids with Autism. These are found in all cells in their. body. This was found first in families with more than 1 affected child.To do that the change had to be present from the point of conception,and likely in the egg. Shots after birth cannot do that, nor will any other post natal exposure.
