Note Vaccine safety and effectiveness – facts and fallacy
Vaccines are considered to have had the greatest impact on public health of any health care intervention, yet are treated with suspicion by a large percentage of the community. Vaccination has led to the elimination of smallpox, is on the brink of eliminating polio and has saved the lives of many millions of people. This presentation will focus on the history of vaccine development with particular emphasis on efficacy and safety concerns.
Open Mic Science features discussions by leading local scientists the first Monday of every month at the Treehouse Cafe.
