A member asked:
Can you please describe the downsides and risks of vaccinations?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaccinations: The potential side effects from vaccinations that are most common are pain at the injection site, fever, or allergic reaction. The biggest downside of vaccinations is not getting them and then dying or becoming severely debilitated when you get the disease that the vaccination would have prevented.
