Parents may ask questions about the safety of their children receiving multiple vaccines at once, the safety of each vaccine, vaccine side-effects, ingredients, and linkages to autism. It is important to remind parents that there’s no proven danger in getting all recommended vaccines at once. Vaccine-preventable diseases can be especially dangerous for young children. And the disease-prevention benefits of getting vaccines are much greater than the risks of possible side effects.
