Facts
The flu vaccine causes more deaths per year than chicken pox.
The direct injection of RSV immunoglobulin, commonly known as the "RSV vaccine" would prevent 16x more deaths than the flu vaccine does, but is too expensive.
There is a vaccine for the plague, and that is why it is no longer an epidemic.
Ebola is caused by vaccines.
There is a vaccine for autism, but it causes mumps.


Opinions
Vaccines do not contain thimerosal, a known toxin.
If you snuck up on your neighbor's kid and cut open his skull, you would be arrested.  But when brain surgeons do it, and charge hundreds of thousands of dollars, it considered "medicine."
99% of vaccines do not cause autism (HT JJ1000).
Every pedi has seen healthy kids become sick physically & mentally hours after a vax (HT Baryochai)
Vaccines cause cancer, infertility, astma, adhd etc (HT Baryochai)

If he got it younger than 12 months it would be because he was younger than the recommended vaccine age.
by an outbreak they do give sometimes under 12 months

I don't want to go into the whole discussion of vaccines but if I can change the mind of one person/family then it's worth it:
My young brother wasn't vaccinated for the measles and he got it when he was a young baby. He was then completely healthy until the age of 9 when we realized something was wrong. After many tests, scans & MRI, the doctor found that it was a rare complication of the measles that comes out only years later and no one till that day recovered from it. The body just stop functioning in many stages and people were able to stay alive for a maximum of 8 years with an average of 4 years. This happens 1 in 10M measles cases.
I don't remember all the details, the name of this complication, and why my brother wasn't vaccinated for the measles (although we were all vaccinated in my family), and I don't want to ask my parents any questions about it.
Someone called me a few months ago after there was a big controversy in CH about vaccines and ask me; "is it true your brother had complications because he got vaccinated?" I was shocked from this question but I still had to verify to be 100% sure. My only question to my mother was if my brother was vaccinated or not and she confirmed he wasn't.
My brother past away 3 years later at the age of 12. It was 3 painful years with a hospital bed at home with many machines and a surgery or visit at the hospital every few months.
If he just had the damn vaccine...
What a devastating story, I am so sorry for your loss - and thank you for being willing to share it. Most likely he developed subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) a rare but known complication of measles that occurs years after the infection clears.

They're riding the current wave of contempt for the medical establishment; 75% of Lakewood is currently flouting the medical recommendation of social distancing and masks ("Corona is over").

Wouldn't shock me to see a non-zero amount of currently vaccinating parents to "switch sides". The 'blind' trust has been broken, it's a slippery slope for many people; hard for many who aren't educated to differentiate between the current Covid-19 state of "doctors don't know much" and all the other proven medical knowledge.

Have to agree. The anti vaccine wackos are sensing the vulnerability of the Lakewood doctors and exploiting it for all its worth. The physicians are unfortunately shooting themselves in the foot by insisting on strict SD guidelines that are out of touch with the reality on the ground. They should really be weighing the potential impact to their credibility going forward even if they are technically correct in their position. חכם עיניו בראשו

As someone who's still practicing strict SD, I hate to agree with you - but you're probably right. I just hope it's not too late.

There are vaccines with known serious, but fairly rare, side effects. Nobody should be denying that.
