11. my daughter could have died because someone didn't get their kids a vaccine |

and those kids attended daycare and carried in pertussis (whoopping cough) one day...
My daughter's vaccinations were what allowed her to only have a mild version of it...but her asthma didn't react well to that at all.
Many kids get religious or other exemptions due to their fears of vaccines. There are more kids out there with no vaccines. My pediatrician gets really upset about this.
After almost a week in the hospital, my daughter was able to come home but no kid should suffer through whoopping cough.
