Yes, I do believe mandatory vaccine programs should be instituted as a public health initiative. Those who are not immunized put other people at risk to these dangerous diseases. Vaccines are meant to help prevent and stop the spread of these viruses to others. It is not fair to those who are medically sensitive and have a suppressed immune system be exposed to these unvaccinated individuals because of their personal beliefs. Many parents do not want to vaccinate their children because they think their child will have a “regression”. There have been many studies where there is no correlation between vaccines and autism or any other type of disorder. These individuals have a hard time understanding science and its facts. The measles outbreak in Disneyland occurred because the individual was not vaccinated and had the virus. In a matter of time it spread to over 100 infections to different states around the country. If vaccines were mandatory, this outbreak would have not occurred.…

Let's say it is the future and your only child just turned three. You haven't gotten your polio vaccines yet. Because why would you get one, they're just a waste of time right?

In my opinion vaccinations should be mandatory for all children. It is dangerous and irresponsible not to. Our job as parents is to protect our children and their future by not vaccinating we are not doing so. If I had it my way and everybody vaccinated I would no longer be worried of my loved ones, myself and others being affected with an incurable deadly disease.…
A vaccine is a substance used as a preventive inoculation to obtain immunity from a specific disease, commonly using an innocuous form of the disease as an inactive pathogen to stimulate antibody production. Even though the first vaccine was created 215 years ago in 1796, many people today are still apprehensive about vaccines due to fear of vaccines’ negative side effects. This investigation studies whether vaccinations should be made mandatory or otherwise, considering both the negative and positive impacts of vaccines.…
I believe that everyone should be up to date on vaccinations. One reason I believe everyone should be vaccinated is because others do not get sick. Another reason is that the person who is not vaccinated doesn’t get sick and having to go to the hospital. One more reason why people should be vaccinated is because they should be able to go to school and not be kicked out because they don’t have their vaccines.…

Some are against children getting vaccines because they view the vaccine as dangerous and unsafe. Some feel that diseases aren’t as harmful as they really are. Vaccines have saved countless children’s lives and have eradicated and eliminated many diseases. Vaccines should be required for children because they save lives, protects future generations, and save a lot of money.…
Vaccines save lives. I believe that and so do the majority of people. Vaccines prevent diseases that are easily spread. The more people who are vaccinated the better it is for those who really cannot be vaccinated because of herd immunity. There are no reasons not to vaccinate but many reasons to vaccinate. Unless there is a documented medical reason, all people should be vaccinated so that there is less disease spread and so we can protect those who are unable to protect themselves.…
Could vaccinations cause autism? One vaccine ingredient that has been studied specifically is thimerosal, a mercury based preservative used to prevent contamination of multi doses of vaccines. If herd immunity drops below 90% there will be a huge outbreak in diseases. All 50 states require certain vaccinations for children entering public schools, they point out illnesses such as smallpox and whooping cough and are now prevented by vaccination and millions of children's lives are saved.

Is it a good idea to vaccinate children? Whether for religious or personal reasons some parents choose not to vaccinate their children. Although there are no current laws about vaccinations, according to “Risk Factors Associated With Parents Claiming Personal-belief Exemptions to School Immunization Requirements: Community and Other Influences on More Skeptical Parents in Oregon, 2006,” “48 states allow exemptions to immunizations for medical, religious, or philosophical reasons, but legal definitions and enforcement differ.” The effects of failing to vaccinate children can compromise the child's immune system, put those around the child and their doctors at risk, and can led to reviving diseases.…
I believe that having vaccines and getting vaccinated is very important in the United States. Vaccines protect your life from deadly diseases, it protects the lives of the people around you from getting a disease from you, and it will protect the lives of the future generations to come after you. This is why it is important for everyone in the United States to be properly vaccinated.…
It has helped eradicate smallpox around the word. Mandatory vaccinations impose on personal and religious beliefs. This is what the First Amendment protects. Voluntary vaccinations safe guards children with known allergic reactions. Voluntary vaccinations are allowing certain diseases to resurface and spread to locations once thought to have no known cases. You have many pros and cons for mandatory and voluntary vaccinations. When weighing in on whether to vaccinate or not. You have to consider the risk to a child whether it would be better off to have the vaccinations or to take the chance of the child becoming deathly ill, The cost could be totally devastating to a family not to mention the long term effects on a child and the…

In conclusion vaccinations are for the greater good even though some people do not see it that way. They are meant to protect the population of the world. They are produced in order to help us survive in times when disease and illness break out. The ideas that vaccinations do not help get rid of diseases, herd immunity, and the fact that people would rather take their chances of contracting the disease instead of saving themselves a ton of money are all close minded ideas. In fact according to May “the problem faced by the public health community is one of convincing the public to accept vaccination”, this is due to their close mindedness of vaccines (410). These people are not looking at the bigger picture, they are not thinking about the…
