Global Vaccine Action Plan has two great ambitions. First, to deliver vaccination to everybody. This is because, about 1.5 million children still die every year of diseases that can be prevented by the vaccines that humankind has developed. Secondly, to unleash vaccines’ vast future potential -because their impressive history is just the foundation stone of greater achievements to come. With these two great ambitions, the Global Vaccine Action Plan aims to make 2011-2020 the ‘Decade of Vaccines’ ( WHO

Vaccines are the most important health practice in combating and preventing deadly diseases. Vaccinations are considered the most cost-effective method in preventing infectious diseases. Vaccines are undervalued and under-utilized, which continues to allow preventable diseases to threaten the world. To better explain the importance of vaccines, this paper reviews scholarly journals, articles, professional research and clinical evidence, that proves vaccination are cost-effective and vital to human
with ASD produced the same amount of antigens from vaccines as kids who did not have ACD did (CDC, np). In total, the CDC has conducted nine studies, all of which show no link between autism and vaccines (CDC, np). Another study done on 95,000 children showed no link between vaccines and autism (Ross, np). Another claim anti-vaxxers make is that vaccines contain mercury which is toxic to humans (Ross, np). Thimerosal, which was in multi-dose vaccines to prevent bacteria growth, did in fact contain traces

Parents who see vaccines from this viewpoint believe that the harm caused by exposing their children to the questionable components of vaccines is greater than the possible risk of the infection. However, the proponents in this argument see things from a different angle. Proponents view
