Vaccinating children against preventable diseases is not only unnecessary but also dangerous To what extent do you agree or disagree.- discuss the extent to which do you agree or disagree.

Vaccinating

children

has become increasingly unpopular among certain demographics of society. These people claim that

vaccinations

are hazardous to

children

’s health and as

such

are not needed.

This

essay will argue why vaccinating against spreadable diseases is entirely necessary despite some potential risks. Parents have always been wary of vaccinating their

children

. They are justifiably worried about injecting their

children

with unfamiliar substances that could potentially make them sick. Parents naturally feel protective of their

children

. Indeed, there have been some recorded instances of

children

unfortunately reacting adversely to their injections. These few instances have bolstered existing fears in parents that

vaccinations

are not necessary and potentially more dangerous than the possibility of contracting the communicable disease itself. Despite the minor risks associated with vaccinating

children

, the idea that they are unnecessary and dangerous is completely preposterous. Vaccines have prevented vas numbers of deaths over hundred of years in countries around the world. The number of deaths so far prevented far outweighs the number of

children

who have been adversely affected by the immunizations themselves. Some diseases have actually been completely eradicated through vaccination campaigns. Overall, the idea that

vaccinations

are unnecessary and dangerous is ill-informed and dangerous in itself and could potentially lead to a far worse outcome for society.

This

essay argued that people who are against vaccination have a flawed understanding of

vaccinations

and underestimate the effects of what they believe. In my opinion, vaccinating

children

is an absolute imperative

that is

entirely justified despite the small and occasional risk involved.
