[https://tr.cloudmagic.com/h/v6/emailtag/tag/2.0/1524254459/348fcc70f9116f84e0a6bbf56163b0d6/4/baa07b5e7a594291352a8bb94fdfcc76/0333c1526243d477b2210e6d5828bdd2/bfb3fe240884b000d67a50f469d64f28/newton.gif]U.S. public health officials and physicians have been combating misconceptions about vaccine safety for over twenty years. They've had mixed success.

Researchers now link falling immunization rates to recent resurgences of vaccine-preventable diseases.

Attached are some papers on the issue. Please skim them before the discussion. They will provide sufficient background. This discussion will focus on the overwhelming data supporting vaccinations and serves to educate Pre-Health students on the topic.
