i can just tell you this.
the main work that talks about vaccines having adverse effects is fake. like totally fake. the guy fabricated his results and even admitted that later on.
now i'm not saying some vaccines don't have side effects (that would be stupid), but i'm saying, be critical of what you read.
wiki page on the article in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MMR_vaccine_controversy

Autism caused by vaccines IS FAKE. But adverse affects are not fake xD I mean - all kind of medical products have them. Even those sold without prescription.

Oh boy. Yeah I know why kids should be vaccinated xD I just wanted to point out the same what Tinypurple - to be critical when reading :) Some vaccines are safe, other have small side effects and some are dangerous.
Vaccine against rabies is good example. Rabies is deadly for any animal. Yet we do not vaccinate people. New vaccine is quite safe, but old one was created in living animals. It was received directly from sheep(?) brain and it contaigned a lot of animal proteins. It was saving life in case of beeing bitten by sick animal, but it caused extreme inflamation in place where it was injected. That was 13 extremely painfull injections. New vaccine against rabies is better (just 3-4 injections, not that painfull) but we still do not vaccine people if it's not needed.
Some vaccines may cause side effects from immunological system, including autoagression.
Some may cause skin changes in place of injection. Small and not really dangerous like in case of vaccine against smallpox. Yet - I have seen malicious cancer couple of times in place of such injections.
So yeah - vaccinate if you want protection against dangerous diseases. But don't vaccinate against everything as you may cause more harm then good.

I know about all of this. The main reason I choose this subject is because all the controversy that's been going around lately. But let me tell you this....adverse effects do appear! They don't cause autism or something like that but they are medial "mistakes" and that's why we try to develop new ways for safe vaccinating.

so you want to read epi studies on vaccines
or biological studies on vaccines?

Bump and meow. I had an adverse reaction once to the flu shot - I got a rash on the arm in which the shot was injected. The rash went away after (from memory) 24 hours. I've had flu shots subsequently and haven't had any more reactions.

I think this site has some links, to articles about actual side effects of various vaccines(like getting infections and such):

Hello everyone! I'm finishing college! I will soon be a biologist! But before that I have to turn in a paper with a subject chosen by me. I choose to finish my 3 years of college with the subject "Adverse effects associated with vaccines" - I liked imunology very much.
Ok...so I'm asking here for a helping hand. If anybody can point me some articles about methods for preparing vaccines (attenuated, inactivated, subunit, synthetic, DNA) or adverse effects associated with them, will be much appreciated.
I know this is not very much but here is a small train
