Every vaccination (for critter or human) has risks associated with 
it.  Toxins can be introduced into the body (mercury has been a 
common one), and some studies show that there may be a relationship 
between vaccinations and the increase in auto immune 
diseases.  Further, there is always the risk of anaphylaxis from shots.

While the potential for damage from any of the above may be small, 
and the potential for serious damage or death without vaccination may 
be high, the risks nevertheless should always be factored in to every 
decision to vaccinate.  Even the most common of veterinary and 
medical procedures have resulted in death (I've been witness to 
that).and that's what all those routine warnings are about in the 
advertising and on the product labels.

I'm not saying don't get horses vaccinated for rabies, but rather 
that deciding to give vaccinations isn't without potential negative 
consequences.
