There should be zero shots given to any child under 2 years old because their immune system is not yet developed. Any doctor that tells you otherwise is not to be trusted.

Subtext: zero paediatricians in USA are trustworthy.

That is correct.

Children under 2 are the ones most likely to die of childhood disease because their immune systems are not developed.

No they are not. All of those diseases have either been eradicated or are so difficult to transmit to babies that the harm caused by the shots is not justified by the protection it offers. Babies can easily be protected from exposure to those diseases.
