Research shows that a physician's recommendation is often the single most important factor in parents' decisions to immunize their children.


That's why it's so important that you, as a physician, prepare to address questions and provide the relevant resources to your patients' families, and we're here to help.


The handout linked below provides answers to 10 common questions parents may have about vaccines for children. Learn how to answer these questions and more:

  • Are vaccines safe?
  • Can vaccines cause autism?
  • Would it be better for my child to have the disease rather than become immune through the vaccine?
  • Is it true delaying some vaccines may be better?
