Myths about vaccines.

Childhood vaccines offer protection from a variety of serious or potentially fatal diseases.

If these diseases seem uncommon — or even unheard of — it simply means that vaccines are doing their job.

If we don't give vaccines, these diseases will be common.

Myth: Vaccine side effects are dangerous
Vaccine side effects are usually minor as low-grade fever, and soreness, redness or swelling at the injection site, temporary headache, dizziness, fatigue or loss of appetite.

Rarely, a child may experience a severe allergic reaction or a neurological side effect, such as a seizure.

Although these rare side effects are a concern, vaccines are much safer than the diseases they prevent & Of course, vaccines aren't given to children who have known allergies to specific vaccine components.

Myth: Vaccines cause autism
Researchers haven't found a clear connection between autism and childhood vaccines. Although signs of autism may appear at about the same time children receive certain vaccines — such as the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine — this appears to be simply a coincidence.

Myth: Vaccines are given too early
Early vaccination — sometimes beginning shortly after birth — is essential because serious or potentially fatal diseases are most likely to occur when a child is very young and the risk of complications is greatest. If you postpone vaccines until a child is older, it may be too late.

Myth: It's OK to skip certain vaccines if you have safety concerns
In general, skipping vaccines isn't a good idea. This can leave your child vulnerable to potentially serious diseases that could otherwise be avoided. Besides: For some children — including those who can't receive certain vaccines for medical reasons or those who don't seem to respond to certain vaccines — the only protection from vaccine-preventable diseases is the immunity of the people around them.

If you have reservations about particular vaccines, discuss your concerns with your child's doctor. If your child falls behind the standard vaccines schedule, catch-up vaccinations are typically available. It usually isn't necessary to repeat earlier doses of a particular vaccine.
