Original Note:
There is no evidence that vaccines increase incidence of ear infection. In fact, millions of ear infections annually are caused by streptococcus pneumoniae infection, which is vaccine-preventable, and other vaccines (e.g. influenza) also reduce risk. https://www.bmc.org/otolaryngology/conditions-we-treat/ear/infection-vaccines https://www.cochrane.org/CD010089/ARI_influenza-vaccine-preventing-acute-otitis-media-middle-ear-infection
