Why vaccination is required ?
Vaccines teach your immune system how to create antibodies and Immunizations are the single most important way to protect your child from disease. Vaccines can help save your child’s life. Vaccinating children helps prevent the development of deadly or incurable viruses and diseases.
Over the years, vaccines have generated some controversy over safety, but no convincing evidence of harm has been found. And although children can react to any vaccine, the important thing to know is that the benefits of vaccinations far outweigh the possible side effects.
