VIVA – Not a few parents think that children do not need to be given immunization because vaccine contain hazardous materials. This makes a number of children do not get their right to be protected from various kinds of diseases that have a dangerous impact.
According to the Pediatrician at Pondok Indah-Puri Indah Hospital, dr. Ellen Wijaya, Sp.A, parents often accuse vaccines of containing harmful substances for children so they choose not to immunize. In fact, children who are not immunized can have fatal consequences such as paralysis and even death.
Doctor Ellen gave an example, the presence of aluminum as an adjuvant in the child vaccine, useful for boosting immunity. In addition, the aluminum makes the level of immunization given to children not too much.
“It has been confirmed that the content of immunization is safe. The embedded substance is safe for protection,” said Doctor Ellen in a virtual media gathering with RSPI, recently.
