Vaccination : examining the facts / Lisa Rosner.

Rosner, Lisa, (author.).

Summary:

"Everyone has opinions about vaccines, but what are the facts? This resource provides clear, unbiased, and up-to-date information on vaccination, which protects the world's populations not only from pandemics like Covid-19 but other dangerous diseases as well"-- Provided by publisher.

"This latest addition to the series is the first reference work on vaccines written through the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic. It asks--and answers--questions raised by the pandemic, such as how vaccines work, what causes side effects, and how COVID-19 vaccines were developed so quickly. It also addresses broader questions, such as how to protect vaccine supply chains and how to prevent public health issues from being politicized. In addition to correcting or clarifying well-known misinformation and misunderstandings about vaccines (such as false claims that they have been linked to autism), this book also provides up-to-date research on ways to counter disinformation and decrease vaccine hesitancy." -- Publisher's web site.
