The criticism

“How do I know it's safe?”

It is the most common doubt, and a fair one: any medicine can have side effects, and so can vaccines.

Supporters of the program answer with what can be checked. A vaccine only joins the schedule after it is registered with Anvisa. And polio and smallpox disappeared from the country after mass vaccination.

To get vaccinated: bring your vaccination card and an ID to the nearest health clinic.

One question remains: whose decision is it when one person's disease can pass to another?
