“Vaccines get new scrutiny” article–U.S. News & World Report
At this point, most of my readers know that I am an active advocate for vaccine safety and that I work with the Department of Health and Human Services on this issue. To know me is to understand that I am passionate about this topic. I believe much can be done to improve the current system we have in place for vaccines…to improve their efficacy and their safety for our children.
The U.S. News and World Report just published an online article (I believe it maybe be published be in the February 2009 issue) on the current scrutiny of vaccines which can be read at http://health.usnews.com/articles/health/childrens-health/2008/12/11/vaccines-get-new-scrutiny.html. I was interviewed for this article and cited, ever so briefly, at the end. Overall, I would say it is a fair article about vaccines and public concerns…it is certainly better coverage that most mainstream media have given to this topic. If vaccines are of interest to you I would encourage you to take a little time to read the article.
