Although most people know that vaccines effectively protect against serious infectious diseases, approximately one-quarter of parents in a recent survey believe that infants get more vaccines than are good for them, and that too many immunizations could overwhelm an infant's immune system. The Immunization Safety Review Committee reviewed the evidence regarding the hypothesis that multiple immunizations increase the risk for immune dysfunction. Specifically, the committee looked at evidence of potential biological mechanisms and at epidemiological evidence for or against causality related to risk for infections, the autoimmune disease type 1 diabetes, and allergic disorders.Compass series (Washington, D.C.)ImmunizationComplicationsVaccinationComplicationsImmunizationComplications.VaccinationComplications.614.4/7Stratton Kathleen R1797964Wilson Christopher B(Christopher Bruce),1946-1810952McCormick Marie C1806833Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Immunization Safety Review Committee.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957423303321Immunization safety review4362526UNINA
