    Old Diseases Are Coming Back: - Amy Miller

    Introduction

    THE TERM VACCINE is derived from Vacca, a Latin word meaning horse. This unique name derives from the following historical event. Edward Jenner, a physician, observed a peculiar trend that the milkmaids who developed cowpox were later immune to smallpox.

    In 1796, to confirm his hypothesis, he took some contaminated cowpox matter and revealed another healthy boy through a cut in his leg.

    The kid got cowpox. Upon  recovering from this simulated infection, he then injected him to smallpox, but the boy remained healthy. He invented the first cow-named vaccine.

    Each parent in the world wants to do the best for their kids; their primary focus is to keep their kids safe from harm. But unfortunately, many parents don't know that the best way to protect their children is to vaccinate them.

    Most parents are concerned with the concept of vaccinating their child or not, so here's a brief explanation of when vaccines are developed and what function they serve.

    There is no adequate evidence as to who invented vaccination, it might be Persians, Chinese or Indians.

    Yet Edward Jenner developed the first vaccine for smallpox. Since then, medical science has continued to evolve and medical researchers have created vaccines for many diseases including rabies, tetanus, polio, cholera, tuberculosis, typhoid, etc.

    The reason for creating vaccines was to protect people from life-threatening diseases. Vaccination is inserted into a person's body's bloodstream; vaccination is sometimes offered at an early age, while in some instances it should be repeated after a few month intervals.

    In this ebook, I will look at the pros and cons of vaccination, discussion on both sides of the issues.

    Chapter 1

    Immunizations

    IN MANY FAMILIES, CHILDHOOD and teenage immunizations are unclear. This is a simple guide to help parents understand vaccines.

    What's vaccination or immunization?

    The immune system detects pathogens (germs) as foreign substances when entering the skin. Doctors call these foreign substances antigens, and when they enter the body, the immune system develops antibodies to fight antigens. Immunizations (also called vaccines) include damaged or dead antigens.

    The antigens in our bodies cannot generate the signs or symptoms of the antigen that cause infection, but they stimulate the immune system to create antibodies.

    These antibodies help protect and defend your child against possible exposure to the disease. Immunizations not only help keep your child safe and healthy they also benefit all kids around the country and the world by stamping out major childhood diseases.

    Is vaccination safe?

    Vaccines are usually very healthy, Lawant to Brock says. Protection by immunizations greatly outweighs the very low risk of severe problems. Vaccines have made most dark and serious childhood diseases rare and sometimes kill (meaning extinct) the pathogen so that it is no longer around.

    Does vaccination cause autism?

    Vaccines are extensively studied and the CDC tells us they cannot cause autism. Despite a lot of speculation, researchers have not found a connection between autism and childhood immunization.

    Yes, the initial study that sparked the controversy years ago was removed. Because signs of autism that occur at about the same time as children receive such vaccinations, it is because this is the developmental period doctors discover.  It's just a coincidence, and you shouldn't worry about getting sick from these immunizations.

    Will vaccines have side-effects ?

    Some immunizations at the injection site can cause mild temporary side effects including fever, irritability, or soreness. Researcher Lawant to Brock advises that your child may grow a lump under the skin of the shot. The healthcare professional will speak to you about possible side effects with certain vaccines.

    When is my baby immunized?

    The generic guidelines for immunizing your baby (also called vaccinated) vary from time to time. You can get a copy of the latest infant and adolescent immunization schedules from an agency like the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), or ask your child's doctor for one.

    Many facilities vaccinate before the child leaves after conception. Others include vaccines once your baby is 2 months old. Anyway, most immunizations stop when he's 6 years old.

    Are there reasons not to immunize my child?

    Kids should NOT be vaccinated under special circumstances. For example, certain vaccines shouldn't be given to children with certain illnesses or cancer types. Some kids who shouldn't get immunized are also taking drugs that reduce  the body's ability to fight infection.

    If your daughter
