I'm not sure if you're trolling or simply misreading that document, but under the section you cited it says that getting Measles, mumps, and rubella can cause serious complications or death. Not the shot which vaccinates against those diseases.
- zedzedb5 12y agoNot trolling. Under "Adverse Reactions", death is included under "Other".
- daeken 12y agoThat listing is all of the adverse events that occurred during clinical testing. We don't know if it's the vaccine, or because a kid slipped and hit his head, causing death. If you were to continue reading, you'd see this: > No deaths or permanent sequelae were reported in a published post-marketing surveillance study in Finland involving 1.5 million children and adults who were vaccinated with M-M-R II during 1982 to 1993. It's quite unlikely that any of the marketed MMR vaccines have ever caused a death.
- eli 12y agoI'm having a hard time believing you are not willfully misreading this document.
- ben_pr 12y agoI nearly died from an MMR shot. I didn't read the linked doc but I can assure you people can die or have very serious complications from the MMR shot.
- tedunangst 12y agoAnd was that better or worse than nearly dying from measles?
