Vaccination Persuasive Speech
Attention Step
In present day, the majority of doctors have not seen a single case of the measles, but before a vaccine was available, almost every person in America contracted it.
Like all of you, I am part of the lucky people who have been vaccinated, however, there are many people around the world who are not as fortunate and others who are simply beginning to deny vaccinations.
After researching vaccinations, I have become very aware of how much they actually benefit our society.

You decided not to get you child vaccinated because you were afraid that they would be harmed in the process or that they just were not necessary.
