Joo cheoi Professor Diane Pearman ENGL-1302 section -042 30 September 2020 Anti Vaccination Movement The ongoing debate over the vaccination of children has been expanded to new limits; there are some clear divisions of opinions among the parents about the process of vaccination. The debate is like the process through which, the safety concerns of the parents across nation come forward. The health and immunity of children remain on high priority; but in the absence of vaccines, the children might be prone to several unwanted risks related to the healthcare. The rejection of vaccination for some communities is criticized by media and other social factors that support it. What makes this whole topic relevant is to see the significance of vaccination in covering the healthcare risks and what counterarguments are given. I favor the vaccination given to children because it ensures their safety for life and at the same time, it prepares them to be an immune person for the future. At first, it is significant to note here what arguments and their counters are provided in order to either support or denounce the vaccination process. The two different ideologies are provided as below: The supporters of vaccination movement refer to various diseases whose cure is either critical or not yet found. It is only the early childhood vaccination that can save the lives of children, in case they are disposed to risky environments. The whole process is not looked or examined by the parents; they feel that their children are safe in the hands of doctors who are professional care takers of not only their children but also of the vaccines. There are various diseases that have no known cure so far; once the child is trapped in it, his or her life is surely in danger. The only way of protection is vaccination. However, the opposing community to the above does not support that their children should be given any kind of vaccine because a vaccine is a mild form of virus that is injected in the body. The myth is that the body of the children is too weak to handle the process of developing antibodies against the virus and, therefore; several problems related to the immunization of the child begin. Parents are unable to handle these complications though; most of them are just myths as there are no strong evidences given to them. In the light of the recent medical researchers, some myths related to the vaccination have been justified. Some vaccines have adverse effects. For example, the vaccine of chicken pox developed in 18th century is said to have some complications to affect the child with mental disorders. These disorders lead to problems related to the overall wellbeing of the child. The rise and accessibility of internet also have played a pivotal role in making people aware about how a vaccine works. In spite of having several profitable aspects, the process of vaccine is compromised for some communities in the light of the knowledge that they have. Hussein A & Ali S. 2018. The Anti-vaccination Movement: A Regression in Modern Medicine. NCBI. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6122668/ The study highlights that the etiology and pathophysiology of this disease is far from being elucidated and there is currently no curative therapy, despite substantial progress in the study of the epidemiology and genetics of autism. While solid scientific study continues, a number of nonscientific and pure theories about autism have arisen in an effort to find explanations and solutions. Hussein also concludes that in view of the highly infectious existence of diseases such as measles, 96 to 99 percent vaccination rates are important to maintain herd immunity and avoid potential outbreaks.

Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a cause of autism—myths and controversies Vaccination as a Cause of Autism-Myths and Controversies. NCBI. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5789217/ In this article, Davidson details some of the facts related to the problems and myths that are common with vaccination. On medicinal grounds, some of these myths are concluded i.e. they are given proper explanation and are not perceived as null and void. However, some string perceptions still exist because they are justified by medical researchers. This is one of the main sources behind anti-vaccination movement to take place. For example, it is proved that due to the impacts of some of the vaccines, frequent symptoms of Autism in children become prominent. The question before the parents appears that how they can permit something that increases the degree of vulnerability of their children to something which would not occur, if they were not given any vaccine. Such myths break the morale of the parents and they oppose the idea of vaccination. Till now we have seen about the myths and negativity being inculcated by certain anti vaccination groups or population and trying to showcase it to the larger audiences about the same. But under the guidance of WHO and the support of all major countries of the world the helpful actions and benefits are seen and cannot be ignored. The child mortality rates have reduced drastically across the globe. Disease like Polio, small pox has been eradicated form the planet eventually. This is all due to the adoption of various vaccines. For that matter, in the current pandemic scenario across the glove at the moment, serious research and works are being carried out in all the countries to find the right vaccine to fight Covid 19 virus. This is all being done to save the human race and build better immunity against such highly contagious diseases. In the developing countries also the government gives free vaccination doses to the children up to 7 years to help the common mass get the dosages to save the kids safe from diseases like measles, diphtheria, rubella etc. WHO has been very aggressive and vocal in promoting the vaccination and its positive facts on human life and survival. Various policies and projects are being undertaken along with various government agencies and healthcare units to promote the usefulness of vaccines in the grassroots level. The health care staffs and nurses also conduct seminars and community health care awareness programs, to eradicate certain taboos and myths which the people have been believing over the years. In the developing countries, specially the village headman and religious leaders are also being taken into confidence before such vaccination awareness programs. This is done so that the human race gets immune to combat certain contagious and life taking diseases. Due to all these endeavours, on a constant basis, certain organizations give free vaccination to their workforce in the factories and plants for flu and measles so that they do not fall sick and miss work and hence lose an opportunity to sustain themselves and their families. Though it is a time taking movement which needs lots of relentless efforts from all the stakeholders to educate the people about the usefulness of vaccination and eradicate the anti-vaccination thoughts and movement once and for all in the years to come.
