A\u00a0story from 2011<\/a> about a baby who died after vaccination is again trending.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_custom_heading text=”The Facts:” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text css=””]This story is about a baby, born at 35 weeks gestation, who ultimately died of SIDS around four months old. Before his death, he was hospitalized with RSV in February. On March 1, he was vaccinated and found dead during the night, March 4<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unlikely that the vaccine caused Mason\u2019s death, as\u00a0SIDS\u00a0is a known cause of\u00a0death, and vaccines are\u00a0not<\/strong>\u00a0correlated with\u00a0SIDS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

SIDS\u00a0often occurs in the age range when infants receive vaccines as part of their routine immunization schedule. Also, premature babies and babies who have recently had respiratory illnesses are at\u00a0increased risk<\/a>\u00a0of SIDS.<\/p>\n

The overwhelming consensus from multiple studies and medical organizations is that there is no evidence to support a causal relationship between vaccines and\u00a0SIDS.\u00a0 In fact, research has shown that infants receiving vaccines are at a\u00a0lower risk<\/a>\u00a0of\u00a0SIDS\u00a0than those not vaccinated.<\/p>\n

We also have the claim that the chance of death with pertussis is 0.00000625%. This claim is likely\u00a0comparing the number of deaths from pertussis to that of the entire population. However, if you look at just babies who\u00a0get pertussis in the first six months of life, half\u00a0will end up in the hospital,\u00a020% of them will end up with pneumonia, and\u00a01 in 100 will die<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also, prior to vaccination, the\u00a0mortality rate<\/a>\u00a0of babies due to pertussis was 0.0045%. Because so many babies are now vaccinated against pertussis, it looks like vaccines have lowered that number significantly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
