Vaccines are necessary to children’s health. There are no risks for health defects. Vaccines are safe. They are tested before released to the public. However, it is a misconception that vaccines cause children to develop disease, as they weaken the immune system. This is false, they release antigens into the body. The body creates antibodies to prevent disease, strengthening the immune system.
Dr. Wilderman, DO, osteopathic pediatrician believes that vaccinations are healthy. He states that vaccines are “... eliminating diseases like polio”. Vaccines prevent diseases from developing and spreading, many diseases are now obsolete. Families are destroyed when their unvaccinated children die from something preventable.
Zinsser’s Teachings
I used mood changers to contrast the benefits to introduce the misconceptions of vaccinations. I contrasted from supporting to vaccines to why people don’t support it. When talking about vaccines, credibility is established. No statements were exaggerated, and facts are accurate. I did not use overstatements. I did not describe that anti vaccinators are committing mass murders. Exaggeration is not needed to make a point. "Should Your Child Be Vaccinated?" American Osteopathic Association, n.d. Web. 25 Sept. 2016, http://www.osteopathic.org/osteopathic-health/about-your-health/health-conditions-library/general-health/Pages/vaccines.aspx.
You use ethos by using a doctor as a credible source and figure, pathos by using words such as "destroyed", and use logos by making the blog post simple to understand and factual. The article gets across the message that vaccines are necessary.
