Important post for pedes with kids on on fence about standard vaccines. I found this out out digging
So we know cdc guidelines for children vaccines are BS. Dont go by cdc guidelines for vaccines instead go by what your local schools recommend.
CDC wants like 70 something shots by the time your child is 18.

My local states school only needs around 12 of them. They are the same I got when I was a child. Polio, chickenpox, MMR, etc.
No flu vaccines even on my public school list. Not saying to have your kid go to public school but use this to tell your doctor you are following these guidelines not cdc.
Yeah, if you must then just get the minimum required.
Yes. This is what I'm saying.
Why get any?
What's more probable: your child becoming autistic (1 in 44) and possibly having their IQ lowered/behavior changed OR your child contracting one of these diseases in the US?
Since 1979 no cases of Polio have originated from the US. And there were 149 reported cases worldwide in 2020.
Smallpox has been extinct since 1980.
Chickenpox is another one schools push. There are about 20 chickenpox deaths in the US per year and death rarely ever occurs in children.
Measles has maintained "elimination" status in the US for the past 2 decades. The reason why there are even dozens of cases that pop up in this country each year is because of illegals crossing the border and bringing their diseases with them. Even after the extremely rare chance that someone manages to catch it, there is a .1-.3% chance of death. However, according to the CDC, there is a .08% chance of getting febrile seizures with the MMR vaccine in 12-23 month-olds. .03% in children under seven.
Mumps, .01-.03% chance of death on the very rare chance that you catch it.
Less than 10 cases of Rubella are reported each year and I can't find any info on anyone in this country dying from it for decades.
Using the CDC's own data, we see that there is a higher probability that an MMR vaccinated toddler/child will get febrile seizures than a non-vaccinated child will contract measles, mumps, or rubella. Even less of a chance of dying from any of them. This isn't even addressing the autism and developmental disorders that children are getting diagnosed with in droves nowadays.
Most illnesses are a nuisance and not deadly. Like you said, occasionally there are deaths for those diseases, but the risk benefit does not justify mass inoculation for chicken pox, mumps, measles, rubella, covid, etc. Vaxes are nothing more that a way for Big Pharma to get rich.
