Vaccines
Disease"Vaccination is a simple, safe, and effective way of protecting you against harmful diseases, before you come into contact with them. It uses your body’s natural defenses to build resistance to specific infections and makes your immune system stronger. Vaccines train your immune system to create antibodies, just as it does when it’s exposed to a disease. However, because vaccines contain only killed or weakened forms of germs like viruses or bacteria, they do not cause the disease or put you at risk of its complications" Source World Health Organization

Infectious Diseases 
We are in the midst of a vigorous debate as to the use of vaccines in the admission into schools, the prevention and cure of diseases. Vaccines have a long history of preventing diseases and thus preventing the death and long term illness and disability of individuals. It is a world wide success story since it has saved millions through out the Earth. It reduces the risk of infectious disease for not only the individual but their families and the society at large, since it can and will create what is called a herd immunity. More than 30 diseases along with infections have been prevented world wide. The movement to band or restrict vaccines is dangerous. Many will die or be injured long term if this movement is succesful.
