I'm sure most if not all of you are anti vax but I was curious to hear your opinions on this. What is the possibility it could cause autism and other debilitating side effects ?

Vaccinated is a broad term here. What are you getting him vaccinated FOR? Go as slowly and as deliberately as they will ever let you, and then try a little harder. Kids born today will get 34+ before they turn 5 years old. I'm only 15 and I'm pretty sure I received a dozen or less. My grandpa probably got about three by that age. I'd say get it done for the things that can harm him the most; MMR, DTaP, Chickenpox. Do NOT give him the Covid shot or the flu shot. I and everyone I know have a direct correlation with skipping the flu shot and not getting the flu, it gets worse every time and could cause brain damage or death.
You do not need:
3 HepB shots
3 Rotavirus shots
5 DTaP shots
3 Influenza B shots
4 PCV shots
4 Polio shots
2 MMR shots
2 Varicella shots
2 Hep A shots
4-5 flu shots
TL;DR It's complicated, I'd look at schedules in other countries and determine from there what's best. Don't give flu shot though, and please be careful with him. If he'll be going to a public school or another place where he'll interact with a large group of kids I'd maybe advise having several more because it's piss-easy to get sick from some random niglet, and if he won't be, then take more caution because his immune system won't have as much exposure and you could risk having something resembling an immune disorder.

>Chickenpox
Lol, wut? Everyone used to get Chickenppx as a kid and hardly anyone had permanent damage. It's only dangerous now because everyone is vaxxing their kids so no one catches it young (like polio and measles).
My kids aren't vaxxed for this despite having almost everything else recommended; if they don't catch it naturally by 18, maybe then.

Our son is unvax and hes healthier than all the vaxxed kids. We let him basically play with anyone (not honeless weirdos, ghetto brats) so i dont think you need to shelter kids until they are actually sick and they can recover at home past a fever etc.
In your post, imo, You are right until you mentioned MMR and dtap as dangerous. If you go to even wikipedia read about how rare severe illness is for these diseases. Measles is not dangerous. Mumps isn't either. And rubella is only dangerous for some pregnant women who contract it and can hurt the baby in utero.
Chicken pox is not dangerous to children and the vaccine has shown correlation with shingles reoutbreak in old people which is much more dangerous.
Dtp is a mixed bag and Im not sure off the top of my head except that diphtheria is rare and most cases are asymptomatic, pertussis is fatal in less than a percent of children that contract it under a year old, tetanus is quite sketchy however and would consider the vaccine for this above the others.
The question to really ask though, is do these vaccines even work? And for how long? They say you are supposed to get boosters for instance, for tetanus every 10 years. And I have not. Yet I haven't gotten tetanus.
Thanks for the response, I must admit my knowledge is VERY limited and flawed. Tetanus though I do agree in that matter, it's no joke and probably one of the scariest diseases out there. I'm wary about vaccines like many, but if I touch a rusty nail I'm hauling ass to a clinic.
Tetanus seems to exist in soil everywhere so we probably just develop immunity at some point. Idk much either tbh. But my logic is: if you are arguing for an intervention, you must make the case to do it. We are living with the reverse where the intervention (vaccinating) is the standard and we must make the case not to do it. Its an inversion of the scientific principles of proving assertions.
