Standardization
Conclusion – Parents and guardians should be more cautious regarding vaccinations and should not be
forced by others for vaccinating and immunizing their children.
Premises
1.1: The vaccines that are directly injected into the blood vessels of children and babies contain organic,
poisons and chemicals which lead to various fatal diseases.
1.2: The studies of AVAG indicate that some vaccines might cause side effects in children and might be
fatal.
1.3: The common ingredients of vaccines include harmful cells of animals and aborted foetuses and
dangerous metals.
1.4: Some pharmaceutical companies might withhold the possible risks of vaccination usage for achieving
their own interests of business.
1. Some vaccinations might be fatal and invite severe issues while the parents might be unaware of such
facts due to the information being withheld by pharmaceutical and vaccination producing companies as
well as doctors who are in turn directed by the companies for the usage of such vaccinations.
2.1: Children in Australia are vaccinated for Hepatitis B irrespective of proof against them being infected.
2.2: Parents only care about the benefits and not the risks of vaccinations.
2. Babies are vaccinated for STDs on the very day they are born.
3.1: Litigations settlements are carried out against big companies every year.
3. Studies have shown that vaccine companies have mostly turned out to be fraud.
4.1: Prior to the initiation of mass vaccination, the rate of deaths caused due to infectious diseases had
decreased by 1950.
4. The death rates had lowered in Australia before the introduction of vaccinations.
5.1: Developmental diseases were know about in the past but did not affect the children as frequently as
they do now.
5.2: Allergies have become more common than before.

4
5. Developmental disorders have increased after the introduction of vaccinations.
6. The age of vaccination should be delayed by the parents for their children, because the children who
are older in age can withstand the vaccine side effects in a better way than the infants and new born.
C: – Parents and guardians should be more cautious regarding vaccinations and should not be forced by
others for vaccinating and immunizing their children.
Strengths and weaknesses
Both the judgments as well as the arguments are provided on the basis of the premises (Chinn, Buckland
and Samarapungavan, 2011). The strength of an argument would be added by an acceptable premise on
the basis of its reasonableness. Hence, the assessment has been analyzed by the means of premise.
Sub-arguments supporting 1
Premise 1 concentrates upon the risks and side-effects of vaccination, and the Australian Vaccine
Awareness Group (AVAG) supports the sub-argument by the means of three provided facts, the
hazardous and harmful substance found in the vaccination, the information that is withheld by the
pharmaceutical companies and the possible risks caused by the vaccinations which lead to various
diseases amongst children. Even though the argument seems to be very strong at a glance, it has been
revealed by a close scrutiny that there is weakness within the argument due to the lack of sufficient
supporting evidence. Apart from vaccinations, almost all types of medicines consist of organic ingredients
or chemicals that might be harmful. Injections do indeed carry the risks because of the fact that it is a
direct internal procedure, which cannot be potentially be prevented by the externally present immune
system of the body such as the skin layer and mucus layer. However, it cannot be denied that the most
secure and preventive mode of prevention against most of the infectious and harmful diseases from
spreading across the globe would be immunization and vaccination. Additionally, vaccinations and
immunization are more feasible and affordable for the poor or backward families than the high level
expenditure on the treatment of the diseases that are caused as a result of the infections.
Furthermore, the reliability and appropriateness of the studies of the AVAG remains to be a question. The
justification for the reliability and appropriateness of the study has not been provided sufficiently. The
participants as well as the scale have not been introduced clearly. It should be noted that high emphasis
has been provided by the AVAG on the problems and issues of vaccination with children. Hence the
studies and research conducted for adults might be irrelevant. Besides these, the strength of the
generalization of the studies would be weak if the studies’ scales are tiny and insufficient. Hence, the
