Vaccinations: Pros and Cons
Recently, television, the press, the Internet,simply are full of "exposing" materials on the theme of vaccinations. You will look, you will listen and you come to a confusion - what to do? To be vaccinated or not? Especially acute is the problem of vaccination before future or already established young mothers.
According to the traditional vaccination calendar,a newborn is already vaccinated against hepatitis already in the first hours of life, and BCG for the first three to five days. At the same time, many mothers are afraid how the vaccine will affect the unformed immune system of the baby. Will the vaccine be useful or, on the contrary, will only bring harm? To date, vaccinations can be refused for medical reasons (medotvod) or at the request of parents. Do I need to vaccinate a child? Let's try to weigh all the arguments "for" and "against".
Let's start by recalling that in general it is an inoculation. Graft Is the introduction of an attenuated strain into the bodyvirus or microorganisms in order to develop antibodies to this causative agent of the disease. That is, vaccination, in fact, is a disease in mild form. But when antibodies are worked out, the organism is no longer afraid of the causative agent of the disease in its natural form. But this is - ideally. Mass, polls, vaccination does not take into account the important factor - each organism is individual. So, in addition to the causative agent of the disease, the vaccine also contains additional components, such as formaldehydes. For example, the organism can give an allergic reaction to one of the vaccine components and complications.
Opponents of vaccinations argue that Inoculations are ineffective From the point of view of its direct designation, thereforeNot needed. Indeed, the transfer of many diseases does not produce in the body a permanent lifelong immunity and the ill one day can just as surely get sick again. So the vaccination is meaningless.
Vaccinations are made for the prevention of variousdiseases. And the opponents of vaccinations argue their position by the fact that one does not need to be vaccinated against what can never and will not get sick. But if it were not for vaccinations, we would still be sick with you with black pox or with the plague. And, unfortunately, to give a 100% guarantee that your child will not pick up the diphtheria somewhere, for example, no one can. Therefore, most doctors believe that, despite its not absolute safety, vaccinations are still needed. Another question, how to properly vaccinate?
Vaccinations should be done only when the child is completely healthy. This means that since the last diseasemust pass at least two weeks. Children with weakened immunity, which literally "do not get out" of colds, it is difficult to get vaccinations. For such children, an individual vaccination schedule is most often set. In addition, if the child is ill with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, or if some pathologies are found, the vaccination should be given no earlier than 1-1.5 months or even more after a full recovery. Also, the rest of the family should be healthy.
When vaccinating a doctor is always obliged to strictly follow the instructions! All tools must be sterile, the vaccine - not expired.
To vaccinate did not bring complications instead of benefits never vaccinate a child immediately before entering kindergarten. After all, a kindergarten, as a rule, is a source of pathogenic bacteria and additional stress for the child. These factors greatly weaken the child's immune system.
Eat, do your child vaccinations or not, of course you. But there are a lot of difficulties ahead for you,connected, first of all, with the fact that to refuse vaccinations you will have to sign a lot of papers. Therefore, if you are sure of your decision, be prepared to defend your point of view and rights. Nobody except you knows what is best for your child.
