UNDERSTANDING VACCINES: the Benefits, the Risks, the Science
Since the Covid-19 pandemic, support for public health policies has gradually declined. At the federal level certain policies and practices regarding vaccines have been thrown into question.
Vaccine proponents note the long-time and widespread benefits of the traditional MMR vaccine; vaccine skeptics generally insist it causes autism. Some say the approval process (Operation Warp Speed for Covid-19) was either rushed or rigged; others say the process was instrumental in reducing suffering and saved the lives of millions of people.
Often claims about safety and efficacy of vaccines go unanswered because they’re raised within their own particular camp or silo.
This program is different. It will give you the unusual opportunity to hear from both perspectives at the same time and place. Speakers will be able to ask questions of one another.
How can we determine the best course of action with respect to vaccinations? How do we (and the FDA) draw the line between significant benefits and a dangerous risk? How can we, the public, recognize the difference between good science and misinformation?
