A friend of mine just recently gave birth to her first child, and she has been dealing with the issue of vaccination. Based on what I've read, I am against vaccinating infants. An infant's immune system is not yet fully developed and I think it's absolutely foolish to inject live viruses into a tiny body that is only 2 months old.
In the U.S., infants are supposed to be given vaccinations at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, and 12 months. If it was my child, I would refuse. The effectiveness of vaccines is questionable (at best), and in my mind, vaccines should NOT be given to infants (children under 2 years). There is even good evidence against vaccinating adults.
Here is a very sarcastic video that decribes the dangerous ingredients found in most vaccines (including the flu shot).
