Vaccination protects children from dangerous infections such as measles, rubella, polio and whooping cough. Many parents fear side effects, but the risk of complications from the diseases is much higher than from vaccines. It is important to follow the vaccination schedule approved by doctors so that immunity develops in good time. Before vaccination, consult a pediatrician and check for contraindications and possible reactions of the body. Remember that mass vaccination not only protects your child but also helps to reduce the overall spread of disease.
