Another trend doctors are seeing -- parents asking to space out their kids' vaccines so they don't get multiple shots all at once. KING 5's Jean Enersen reports on how pediatricians are responding and which three vaccines experts say parents shouldn't put off.

Oh god people we've all been getting vaccinated for decades. I don't think the animal cells in them (if there really are any) are doing anything to us. I've had all vaccines, and get my flu shot every year. In fact, I JUST got my flu shot a few days ago..... gosh.. if you guys don't hear from me in a couple of days on here... expect the worst!! I may have died!!!!!!

7 apartments in my hall. 3 have Whooping cough. 2 are totally up to date with vaccines (jobs require it). Other apartments vaccine history unknown (but adult vaccines for us working families are over $100 each and do NOT work)... except my family -- vaccine free AND Whooping cough free!. Did you read the article about China jumping into the vaccine production game? Why not eat real food and exercise? Easier to take drugs, eh? Enjoy, but stay out of MY choice of health instead of drug addictions! 1 more note: 2 of the Whooping cough neighbors work in restaurants. Seattle's paid sick leave begins Sept. 2012. Still think we don't need sick leave? Still think we don't need Health Care for All??

Think about how you would feel if your kid got polio.... I promise you 23 shots would seem like a stroll in the park.

You're against them because your child has 23 in his short life? I wonder how much shorter his life would be if he didn't have any!

Well, hey, sorry your kid got so many shots. If you didn't want him to get them, then you should have declined them. Don't want monkey cells with your dead virus? Decline the shots. All there is to it. DEAL!

I'm sorry but I'm almost against vaccines period. My son is 2 and has received 23 shots in his short life. TWENTY THREE! And in one day he got 4 shots and an oral. Thats just ridiculous and you can easily exempt yourself from having your child get all these. Its a simple form you have your doctor sign saying you understand what these vaccines are and you do NOT want your child to have it. Do you know what is in vaccines besides the virus live/dead? Try animal cells. They have to grow the virus on something...its usually rat cells & monkey cells. Think about it....
