Assa 1 Christina Assa ENC1101, 1954644 Professor Hofman 30 April 2015 Mandatory Vaccinations There is much debate to whether or not children should or shouldn’t be vaccinated. Every day there are many children and even adults who have died from diseases that could have been prevented before they came up. Immunizing our children is important so that they will stay healthy and so will other children around them. Children are at the most risk for developing diseases when they are growing up. They
when I found out I would be bringing a new life into this world in late August, many thoughts and options began flowing through my head. At this time I didn’t know routine vaccinations were a choice for parents to make, I always thought they were mandatory. This being said, I began my research on the pros and cons of vaccinations. While I learned there are cons of vaccinating children, I also learned that the benefits of routinely vaccinating children significantly outweigh the risks. I chose from
The government should mandate vaccinations, and although it would sacrifice the liberty and choice for public health it would keep the well-being and health of everyone much more safe and away from the risk of disease. Most people agree that vaccinations should be mandated because of how being vaccinated keeps people safer in public environments since being vaccinated helps stop diseases from being spread, as proven by science, but people who do not agree with vaccination mandation most of the time

Between 1924 and 2013, vaccinations prevented 103 million cases of polio, measles, rubella, mumps, hepatitis A, diphtheria, and pertussis (Bailey). Vaccinating is “the process by which pathogenic cells are injected into a healthy person in an attempt to cause the body to develop antibodies to a particular virus or bacterium—successful creation of antibodies is referred to as immunity to the disease caused by the particular pathogen” (Introduction to Should Vaccinations be Mandatory).

Vaccines should be Mandatory in order to Attend School Standard Number: 6.4.B Protecting a child’s health is very important to parents! That is why they should vaccinate them as a young child. All children should be required to have vaccinations in order to start school in every state. Each year about 85% of the world’s youth receive vaccines that protect them against several diseases like, tuberculosis, pneumococcus, and many more. Even with great success, and improvements with vaccinations, more than
Should Vaccinations be Mandatory? Vaccinations are dangerous and threaten the health of the immune system in both adults and children which is why vaccines should not be mandatory. Immunizations contain mercury and other harmful toxins. Vaccinations can cause allergic reactions in both adults and children. The flu vaccine is one of the worst offenders as well as the chicken pox. Vaccinations should not be mandatory because they produce painful and sometimes fatal side effects, it opposes on
In the past century, vaccinations have progressed to the point where some vaccine-preventable diseases have been eradicated. After the development of vaccines in 1776 by Edward Jenner, vaccines began to help to prevent outbreaks of deadly diseases and control the number of deaths. Ever since the creation of the varicella vaccine in 1995, the number of children who have fallen victim to the disease and died has also decreased. Even people who are unable to be vaccinated have been protected to some
Vaccination. Should parents be able to choose whether to vaccinate their children for any reason? Why is there a debate to this routine practice? Is the real debate making it mandatory? Or is it whether vaccination benefits outweigh the underlying concerns? Are there real concerns to each side? Are we taking the right away from the parent in making this mandatory? Is this an inevitable wave in history of extremist that oppose or fight against modern medicine? Is there real panic of mass transmission
Audrey Miller Research Paper Draft Laura Thompson 10/21/15 Should Vaccinations be Mandatory? In today’s society, it is very common for parents to have their children vaccinated and to be vaccinated themselves. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Source 1), more than 80% of children from the ages of 19 months to 35 months were immunized for several different diseases. I myself have always been vaccinated, but I believe that it is a person’s right to decide whether or not
