I would like to share a resource for vaccination information that (for the first time) I can heartily recommend. There are dozens of books on the subject, and hundreds of websites. Mostly they are portraying one side or other of the debate. This does not help families make INFORMED decisions regarding immunizations.
The book is “Make an Informed Vaccine Decision” by Mayer Eisenstein, MD, JD, MPH. I am an analyticalperson by nature and I thoroughly appreciate the “one vaccine at a time” approach throughout the book. The ingredients, the risks, VAERS reports, what each illness looks like , the risk in our population of acquiring said disease, etc. It’s all there, with citations.
Thanks. I’ve been putting off the vaccines while I look into and haven’t found anything useful yet. I’ll look for that book.
I’d love to hear what you think of it Mary!
Fabulous! I’m off to purchase it now.
I feel like I’ve never truly made a decision about vaccines because, as you said, most of the information is so skewed in one direction or the other. Thanks!
I would love to have a review from you for this book Summer!
