A tiny fraction of infants react to infant vaccinations.

But the harm those children experience is a infintesimal fraction of the harm all children would feel if there were no infant vaccinations.

It's a trade off but it's one that must be made. The parents whose child died did the best thing they could do. Until we can screen for the infants that will react, vaccinations are the best choice.

Seatbelts and airbags sometimes kill people, too. Sometimes people die in unlucky ways.

My cousin died in 2021 at the age of 28 after AstraZeneca vaccine. Quite unfortunate, they starter increasing the age group of people receiving that vaccine literally days after he got it. His parents obviously are obviously still struggling with it and will never really accept it.

I don't have to imagine, I lost relatives to people who didn't get vaccinated. A lot of people did. Probably literally billions.

> Imagine if you had lost a son or daughter due to this

And imagine if you lost a son or daughter due to not doing this.

You are making a choice either way. If the opposite choice was made there are different consequences. Its not like you can opt out of consequences by not choosing.
