Vaccinations for and against

Уже не первый год среди мам и пап активно the question of "grafting the pros and cons" is discussed. The controversy does not cease for a minute, the opinions of various specialists, not always the medical profile, both in favor of vaccinations, and those that deny them, add to it. If we add here populist statements about the dangers of "interference in the forces of nature", frightening stories of side effects until the death of children, it becomes clear why more parents are starting to refuse vaccinations. But the question of "grafting the pros and cons" is a matter of children's health, which requires the most careful and balanced approach.

Прежде всего, что такое прививки и зачем они Need? Vaccination or vaccination is a method of protecting the body from dangerous infections by introducing into the killed or weakened pathogen (its components). As a result of this introduction, the immune system responds by producing antibodies, that is, the person becomes, as it were, "already ill" and unresponsive to this disease further. In this case, the benefits of vaccinations are obvious. There are many deadly diseases (poliomyelitis or epidemic children's paralysis, diphtheria, tetanus, etc.), very common earlier and incurable so far, but their massive "victorious" procession was hampered by the introduction of vaccinations. As for the interference in the "natural protective forces of the organism," alas, we have not lived in natural conditions for a long time, but on the contrary, we live in metropolitan cities, which, in fact, are a "non-existent" congestion of people, very favorable in terms of distribution various infections.

As with every drug, vaccines also have"The reverse side of the coin" in the form of side effects, which, in general, and do the opponents of vaccination. The most formidable complication is the development of the disease, from which the vaccine is called to protect. Yes, when applying a "live" vaccine, this is possible. So it was, for example, in America in the forties, when they developed a drug against molio. But, first, it was at the dawn of development of this trend in medicine, and modern technologies for vaccine production minimize such a risk, and secondly, the disease still occurs in a much lighter form and in the overwhelming number of cases in children with low immunity . Therefore, often ill children have a hard medical guide from vaccinations. The statistics figures say that the incidence of such complications to date is 1 case per approximately 100,000 vaccinated. Another complication is a possible allergic reaction to the components of the drug. But modern medicine has an arsenal of potent antiallergic agents of almost instantaneous action, so timely medical assistance allows you to successfully cope with this "misfortune".

Если все же возникает сомнение, стоит ли делать vaccinations, it is worthwhile to just think and imagine - from what terrible diseases they protect. Recently, in the discussion of vaccinations, the pros and cons are often of the opinion that, since there is no spread of diseases, they are already defeated and they are not to be protected from them, but this is a very dangerous delusion! The fact is that among the population there must exist a so-called "immune stratum" that also hampers the mass manifestation of the disease.In practice, this means that at least 80% of all potentially at risk of being vaccinated should be vaccinated.Disclosure of vaccines reduces this saving layer, making possible outbreaks of infections and the first victims of them are precisely unvaccinated children.Practice shows that in recent years it has become more frequent such cases, for example, diphtheria with fatal outcomes.

Учитывая все вышеизложенное в полемике «прививки for and against "you can put a fat point, since the need for them is obvious. The only exception is children with low immunity, which can really damage the vaccine. But in each case, the doctor must decide on the need for a medical worker.
