Total number of vaccinations per year?

More than 10 million vaccines per year are given . This is according to the vaers website. It scares me that they talk about making vaccines mandatory and some states already have, like California. How can you make something mandatory in the name of health that is related to hundreds of deaths per year

200 / 10 milion = 0.002 % of deaths, and lots of lives saved.
I don't like mandatory vaccines but I also think there is not much to be scared.
It's a risk / reward situation, nothing more... but every individual / parents should choose.

The deaths are the more vulnerable populations too. Over 40% are under 1 and another higher proportion in the mid 70s

I agree. It should always be a choice! Those are just deaths not to mention the over 40000 other adverse events reported each year. Again a small number about 0.4% but those are the ones reported to the system. I began with deaths because that was the easiest to graph. I think vaccines are pushed on us out of fear also. There are studies after studies showing the effectiveness or lack of effectiveness of some vaccines, namely the flu which is around only 30%. Others may be good likepolio or measles that actually got rid of the disease, but the flu is something advertised every year and is not even that effective.

So are vaccines bad for you or not? I have my biology teacher saying they are good for you because you build an immune response to he vaccine.

Its not that simple. Some vaccines are good some aren't. It may build up the immunity or it may just introduce foreign junk that shouldn't be there in the first place. Some vaccines are more effective and it is very much person dependent. There is not one size fits all answer. There is always a risk/reward to consider with any medication. What I don't like about them is that they are being pushed on you. You should be able to decide for yourself whether you would like the vaccination or not.
