I have experienced the results of lack of vaccination twice. First, my daughter developed chicken pox a year before the vaccine was approved. Normally, Chicken Pox is just itchy but her body reacted to the virus and she developed Thrompocytopenia. We spent a week in the hospital and two months afterward of weekly blood tests.
Several years later I caught Whooping Cough from one of the unvaccinated children in our school. For five months I was coughing so hard that I would black out. I was unable to drive, and underwent lots of (expensive) tests to make sure I had not torn, ruptured or injured something during the blackouts and subsequent falls.
Failure to vaccinate shows a disregard for the health of others around you.
