Description

Here is a straightforward presentation of the facts surrounding the controversial topic of vaccines, a book that perplexed and worried parents can turn to for answers and reassurance. Most parents have questions about vaccines that doctors are too busy to answer, and too many parents, because of this, don’t seem to be having their child vaccinated at all, thus putting them at risk.

This timely book answers such questions as:

  • Aren’t most of these diseases eliminated anyway?
  • Should my child have the new chicken pox vaccine?
  • Could my baby get a bad batch of the vaccine and end up getting infected?

Comprehensive information on the history of vaccines, the diseases that can be controlled through vaccination, and the risks and benefits associated with each vaccine will help parents come to a decision whether or not to have their children vaccinated and which vaccines to approve. With this essential resource, parents can make the right decisions for their childrens’ health and safety.

New! In September 2000, Paul is launching a vaccine education page on the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia website. Check it out!

In the last couple of years, the controversy over whether or not to vaccinate children has raged some of the parenting set. Opponents say that vaccines don’t work and that they ceaselessly cause more harm than good. Proponents say that vaccines do work, and that the saving of lives and the general improvement in health of the vast majority far outweighs the low incidence of mishaps from vaccines. What Every Parent Must Know About Vaccines, by doctors and infectious-disease experts Paul A. Offit and Louis M. Bell, weighs in heavily on the side of vaccination, but it’s also an important book for those parents considering not vaccinating their children. Each vaccine and the disease it prevents–from the standard ones that every child gets to vaccines administered only in special cases, such as in another country go back and forth–is explained in detail. Offit and Bell give an explanation for and dismiss vaccine myths, as well as discuss up-and-coming vaccines for the future. This book will answer many of the questions that your pediatrician may not fully give an explanation for to you.
