Good Health: The oldest current standard immunization is from the mid-20th century. There are no known serious long term side effects. The long lasting effects are less disease, healthier children and millions--that's right-- millions of lives saved!

This is the truth. Go to an old graveyard and see how many people died as children before immunization.
