Half of the parents thinks that flu shots cause the development of this disease. Amazing to such conclusion the American researchers.
A large number of dads and moms mistakenly believe that flu shots can cause the development of this disease, as found by researchers from the United States. In the vaccine against flu contains inactivated virus, it is recommended for all citizens, but especially for the most vulnerable, because it reduces the risk of infections or attenuates the intensity of the virus if the person is still infected them. However, the number vaccinated in the USA is constantly decreasing, and, according to the chief surgeon of the country of Jerome Adams, this decline has led to the fact that last year in America died from influenza 80 000 people. A new study involving 700 parents allows you to discover one of the reasons for the negative trend. 47% of respondents believe that the flu shot is dangerous, and 66% said that it threatens their children.
“It’s a question I hear from my patients every day, says pediatrician from Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital Jamie Walters, who conducted the study. Again for all moms and dads: the flu shot consists of dead virus! There is no way in which your child will get the flu from this injection. Yes, in the area of injection may appear painful, but I assure you that it is much better than a full-fledged sick with the flu. Last year the number of deaths from the disease Americans has reached record levels since the beginning of the collection of such statistics. 80% of deaths from flu in children have not been vaccinated”.
Alas, fears vaccines continue to persist and to gain momentum. This contributes to the so-called antivaccination movement based on absurd from the point of view of science claims that through vaccines doctors allegedly infecting children and adults. These claims are made despite the overwhelming evidence that vaccines much lower risk of disease in the regions and countries where these vaccines are not conducted, the incidence is ten times higher.
