Receiving Immunizations

In recent years vaccines have been a major topic of discussion. While some people still think having your children vaccinated against common illnesses such as chicken pox and the flu is dangerous, I myself think it is perfectly fine to have your children vaccinated on the schedule recommended by pediatricians. Some parents choose to have their children vaccinated on a delayed schedule, which I still find acceptable. However, the parents who choose not to have their children vaccinated at all are a danger to the public.

It is very important to get vaccinated and to get checked out to see if you already encountered the disease. It is very important because, it saves you from catching a horrible disease and getting very sick. Also, if it’s a communicable disease you wouldn’t want it to harm others around you.

(1) I would not take steps in reducing the flows of people, but I would take steps to reduce the flows of food and manufactured goods. Reducing the flows of people would lead to racism and prejudice towards someone's country of origin. Racists are looking for any excuse to demean a race or a country different than theirs, so the results would be catastrophic. Instead of banning the flow of people, I would rather take steps in recommending everyone to (mayoclinic, 2015):

The article in the textbook concerning child vaccinations touches on the importance of vaccines and some of the reasons why children aren’t vaccinated. Vaccinations are very important to prevent diseases; the injection is a small dose of inactive virus to allow the body to guard itself against the disease. Some common beliefs are that children who are vaccinated are at risk of chronic illnesses which the textbook reveals that these illnesses have no correlation to the vaccinations. Another reason why children aren’t vaccinated is due to income, poverty levels affect the children who are not vaccinated because the families cannot afford them.

Zoe was a thirteen month old baby who became very ill from the chicken pox disease. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2013) reported on their website, one day her mom noticed blisters on her cheek and at first did not think it was anything to worry about. Throughout the next couple of days her mother noticed more blisters developing all over her body. Amy decided to get Zoe to her pediatrician who said that Zoe had chicken pox. Zoe was up to date on all her vaccines except for the chickenpox vaccine which she was scheduled to receive when she was fifteen months old. Zoe showed no signs of being sick and seemed fine. Everyone told Zoe’s mom that she was lucky that Zoe caught chickenpox and told her not to worry. Within a

The vaccination of children is a common practice in the United States. It has helped prevent the spread of infectious diseases that has plagued our society since the dawn of time. Since the decline of those infectious diseases, the United States and other countries have gone to what is called “herd immunity,” which is a mandatory vaccination of a majority of children to protect the mass population from contracting those easily communicable diseases (Orenstein & Yang, 2015). However, as of late the numbers of unvaccinated children are going up. Why is this happening? Why are so many parents choosing not to vaccinate their children? To answer those questions one must look at the reason why childhood vaccinations are required and why people choose to have their children vaccinated. Many parents believe some vaccinations help build their children’s immune system, but for other parents vaccinations are looked at as a risk to their children’s health and well-being. Many studies have been conducted to compile information to quantify the need for mass vaccinations, but childhood vaccinations have become so common in today’s society, that it’s hard to find a large percentage of unvaccinated children to gather a significant amount of data from. This is because the groups of unvaccinated children are too small and wide spread to consistently provide relevant data. This has led to a very controversial debate between parents, medical professionals and government officials about

It is very important to have vaccinations for diseases because it will help protect the body from germs, diseases, and even the swine flu. It can also boost your immune system. And it can even help boost your mood.

Vaccinating your child can help be a preventative measure against serious diseases that are not fully extinct yet. One example of a preventable disease is the increase in whooping cough outbreak that was reported recently. 28,000 cases of whooping cough were reported in 2014 and 2012 was a record year with more than 48,000 cases. Almost all of the deaths were babies younger than 3 months of age, who are too young to be fully protected against whooping cough through vaccines. Another disease that is fully preventable with the help of vaccination are the measles. Measles is still fairly common in many parts of the world, like Europe, Asia, and Africa. Measles is unfortunately

With a development of media and technological ways of social communication, is it vital to trust information from the reliable sources. Many people who do not trust or not satisfied with the quality of medicine, and usually quest the material from unreliable sources. Therefore, matter of reliability of immunization is still a huge topic for debate. For example, people sometimes rely on anecdotes, rare cases or even opinions that they have heard from others. The following article presents different point of view of the opponents, and emphasizes the evidences that support benefits of immunization.

Vaccinations hold the keystone in the health society today. The vaccinations cure many diseases, which in turn saves many lives. Immunizations date back to the late 1700’s to the vaccine’s creation by Edward Jenner. (B) Ever since then immunizations stop infectious diseases and save lives. Vaccines serve as an important purpose in society and have many advantages; however, because they are so easily avoidable, something needs to change.

Preventative health services are those services offered by heath care providers aimed at finding the potential health problems before an individuals or the population feel sick, (Szilagyi et al., 2000). It includes immunizations, prescriptions, physical examinations and laboratory tests. After determining the chances of a disease outbreak, vaccination is taken into account to prevent the outbreak (Richman, Grossman, Sloan & Chepke, n.d.). Vaccination is the administration of antigenic materials commonly referred to as a vaccine to stimulate a person’s immune system to develop strong immunity to a pathogen, organisms causing diseases. Vaccines can either ameliorate or prevent morbidity from infection (Richman, Grossman, Sloan & Chepke, n.d.).

Health is a very essential part in the child care facilities the child care administration is hundred percent responsible for the child health and well- beings. Maintaining a commitment of professionalism, staff must carry their CPR, first-aid medical training record. They are ready to serve a child had an emergency situation or until the emergency services arrive. In Ontario, Immunization records are very essential requirement for the child admission in the school and the day care centre. Every parent need to consider these matter. However, some culture some exception cases, if a parent or guardian to claim exemption from immunization due to religious beliefs a written statement signed by the Child’s parent or guardian who state the reason

Vaccinations have been proven safe for consumer use time and time again, yet people are still wary or hesitant to have their children receive vaccinations. Often times, people who argue against vaccinations are undereducated or miseducated about the real advantages and dangers of vaccinations, and many times these concerns are due to widely spread misconceptions. However, these have been proven wrong by a plethora of reputable pharmaceutical companies. Proven by many , vaccinations prevent epidemics, save money for the nation, and protect the future.

Immunizations prevent millions of deaths not only in the United States, but also throughout the World. Nesson (2016) explains that “vaccines now protect people from diseases that once killed in masses.” Even if certain diseases are on the decline, immunization is still necessary since there is a possibility for it to spread. In 1974, due to Japan’s successful pertussis (whooping cough) vaccination program, there was a large decline of pertussis cases with no deaths (Otsuka, 2012). Rumors spread that the pertussis vaccine was no longer needed which led to only 10% of infants vaccinated and created a major pertussis epidemic with more than 13,000 cases of whooping cough and 41 deaths (Otsuka, 2012).
