MMR
As with any medicine, there is a chance of a vaccine causing a serious injury or death.
The safety of vaccines is always being monitored. For more information, visit the vaccine safety web site.
This information is based on the LAIV VIS.
With any medicine, including vaccines, there is a chance of reactions. These are usually mild and go away on their own, but serious reactions are also possible.
Getting MMR vaccine is much safer than getting measles, mumps, or rubella disease. Most people who get MMR vaccine do not have any problems with it.
After MMR vaccination, a person might experience:
Minor events:
If these events happen, they usually begin within 2 weeks after the shot. They occur less often after the second dose.
Moderate events:
Severe events:
My MMR vaccine was to contract all the diseases by the age of 5. My mother ensured it by taking me to “MMR Parties”.
The same with my 3 sisters.
Though it is rumored that up to 1 in 1,000 of us suffered “complications”. Some of those complications were brain damage, or eve, in rare cases, death.
But I would STILL avoid the MMR vaccine for any of my kids.
It preserves a true “herd immunity”, embedded in our genes. As nature and God intended.
This modern era of vaccines will eventually destroy that. Preserving and promulgating genes incapable of surviving basic childhood diseases.
And thereby weakening the entire species of man.
I say anyone forcing their way into the US along the Southern border should be detained for as long as it takes to administer a full spectrum of vaccines before being released.
I'd prefer they be sent back but if they're going to be let through anyway, why not make sure they aren't going to infect the populace of legal citizens? Serious injury? Death? No problem. Ask them which they would prefer; That, expulsion or indefinite detention?
