Is it possible that all of the vaccines that children receive today can “wear out” the immune system?
The human immune system (even a baby’s) is very complex and has the ability to respond to repeated stimulation. In fact, scientists’ estimate that infants are able to respond to about 10 000 foreign substances at one time. The body sees vaccines as foreign substances so, “wearing out” the immune system by giving routine childhood immunizations is not possible.
