I'm skeptical simply due to my family history.

My brother is one of the few living survivors who had a major allergic reaction to the live pertussis vaccine. Kids like him are why the vaccine uses dead material now. He's in his thirties but has the mind of a 3-5 year old, is non-verbal, has no fine motor skills, and can't even wipe his own butt.

Me, personally, guess what happened after my first MMR? I got measles. That was a trip and a half. Thank God I was a healthy teenager at the time so I could handle it. I even still have the scars to prove it.

If I ever had children (since no one will take my reproductive organs), I would advise the adoptive parents to be very cautious simply due to history.

I'm sorry to hear that, anon. That's horrible, and I'm sorry it happened to you.

However, I hope you understand that this has nothing to do with vaccines' ability to prevent a host of horrible diseases.

I generally believe vaccines are a good thing, but I do agree people need to be careful, preferably getting an allergy test beforehand, if possible.

For instance: Fluvax is based on eggs. It is also not a once-off, because flu has thousands of strains. Someone with an allergy to eggs has to find out if there's a non-egg version or just spend the flu season being wary of getting close to potentially sick people.

THANK YOU. This. THIS.

(As someone who wishes she could be vaccinated against the flu but lives in one of those areas where they won't get the non-egg version since "who cares about poor folks in Appalachia"...this is my sentiment.)

I personally don't have any allergies (except maybe a mild reaction to pollen), but they are something I have no problem acknowledging, maybe because I have lived my whole life with a mother who has a handful of allergies, including one to a number of insect bites that will have itching like crazy, and a gluten intolerance that ha shifted my diet a bit, because it's cheaper to just buy gluten free for some things.

If your brother is in his thirties, he has the mind of a person in his thirties.
