My understanding is that vaccines are the provisional protection that can have adverse reactions to a SEVERE infant and can cause adults to contract the diseases that have not continued their vaccines that adults had received the disease measels which, The mumps epidemic, as reubella chidren would have little likelihood of adverse reactions and now would be completely immune to them verses seriously at risk of death from their contract because an adult … is this correct?

I honestly had a very hard time reading that.. and I hope I understood the question correctly.
Most vaccines given to children now contain “dead” viruses, which mean that they are in no way contagious, so there is no way that the disease will be contracted to adults or other people.
You can ask your pediatrician if the virus in the vaccine is “live” or “dead.” and if it is “live,” would it be contagious.
okay.. for what I think is another part of your question..
again, with most of the vaccines, they either will make the person completely immune for the rest of their life.. or will make them completely immune for a certain number of years. At which time the person will need to be re-vaccinated..
but again, this is a question that the pediatrician will be able to answer for you, as it depends on the vaccine.
and last. Unless you have allergies that run in your family, I wouldn’t worry about the “severe adverse reactions” in the child. If bad allergies do run in your family, get the child tested for allergies before the vaccinations, and tell the pediatrician(assuming you’ve used a different Dr to test the allergies) about them before the vaccinations take place.
Many people now worry that the vaccinations cause autism. There is no statistical proof of the connection, it is simply made because the symptoms of autism usually start becoming apparent after the vaccinations. But again, there is no statistical difference between the occurance of autism in children who received vaccinations, and the children who did not recieve vaccinations

From internet research that me and my husband did for our children before we decided whether they should be vaccinated or not, we learned that it is the preservatives (such as mercury based preservatives) that are used in vaccine that could create problems. Although it is claimed that the level of preservative is very low, I believe the fact that vaccine is given to mostly children and babies, this level can cause severe reaction. If you go to any medical practitioner, they will strongly suggest you to vaccinate (your) kids. However if you are interested in finding out another opinion, I suggest you to check Australian Vaccination Network website (http://www.avn.org.au). Hope this helps.
