Then they stopped the three vaccinations being given separately. That meant anyone with a known possible reaction couldn't opt not to have any of them, it was all or nothing. My son had a known possible reaction and rather than him risk this none of those vaccinations were given.
This was noticeable in the number of parents who wouldn't allow all three to be given. That means vaccinations against the other two were not given so leaving that child at risk. I can't recall the exact details as it was around 35 years' ago now.
Sometimes these things are not always thought through enough.
