Our 8, for Why Vaccinations are Essential


 * 1) Vaccinations are the main way to control disease. They can almost completely prevent the disease
 * 2) Vaccinations strengthens peoples immune systems. They introduce altered bacteria or viruses into our immune system, which then allows us to defend against it.
 * 3) Vaccinations prevents diptheria, tetanus, whooping couph, polio, measles, mumps, rublia, and pheumonia
 * 4) The best way to kill something harmful is to use itself. In other words mother nature against mother nature.
 * 5) With out vaccinations the only way to prevent the spread of the disease was to keep people home and isolate them, but if people have the vaccination for the disease they do not need to worry about the person who has it or getting it from them because they are immune to it.
 * 6) In 1990, 894 people died of smallpox. In 1920, 7,575 people died of measles. In 1920, 13,170 people died of diphtheria. In 1922, 5,099 people died of pertussis. All of these people could have lived if they would have been vaccinated.
 * 7) Vaccinations are quick and effective. They are simple and take very little time.
 * 8) Its and in and out procedure that is safer than most of the other treatments.
