AUSTRALIAN parents who refuse
to immunise their children are the
target of a new campaign run
jointly by the Australian Academy
of Science and the Australian
Medical Association.
The campaign is aimed at
educating parents about
immunisations via the publication
of a new booklet which tackles the
misinformation about vaccines
which has contributed to a current
six-fold increase in parents who
reject immunisation for their
children.
The booklet, titled The Science of
Immunisation, is written in an
easily-accessible style and
supplemented with clear
illustrations, and answers common
questions and dispels common
myths about the pros and cons of
immunisation.
To obtain a copy of the booklet,
