FAQs on Vaccines and Immunization Practices by Vipin M Vashishtha,Ajay Kalra,Naveen Thacker Pdf

This book is an attempt to fill this void by providing contributions from experts who have a vast information and knowledge on the subject of Vaccines and Immunization. They have devoted a lot of time and efforts to answer the questions on the basis of the latest information that is available today right from the Basics of Immunology to Vaccines in the pipeline and Therapeutic vaccines, besides talking about the changes in technologies and evolution of different adjuvants and combinations. There is a paucity of a decent book on immunization in this format. Often, the FAQ books are criticized as being meant only to provide a superficial account of the subject; however, our effort is to provide a more in-depth account of the given subject. The hallmark of this book is its comprehensive nature—almost all the aspects related to pediatric vaccination today are covered in depth. Hopefully, the book will not only be handy for the busy practitioners but even Postgraduate students will find it attractive to browse pages to find answers of their queries.

Vaccine Science and Immunization Guideline by Pamela G. Rockwell, DO Pdf

This book is a comprehensive resource on vaccines and immunizations for primary care physicians, advanced practice providers, and trainees. We are now seeing a rise in measles and the potential for rises in other previously rare infectious diseases, significantly due to public and physician misconceptions and misinformation about vaccines. The text addresses this issue by consolidating historical and current advances in vaccine science from how vaccines are developed to CDC recommendations on how and when to administer them. Expert authors also address barriers to improving vaccination rates in the U.S. and offer evidence-based recommendations on overcoming those barriers. This is an essential guide for primary care physicians, family physicians, pediatricians, internists, residents, medical students, mid-level providers, and learners for understanding vaccines and improving preventative care for their patients.

Immunization Safety Review by Institute of Medicine,Board on Health Promotion and Disease Prevention,Immunization Safety Review Committee Pdf

By two years of age, healthy infants in the United States can receive up to 20 vaccinations to protect against 11 diseases. Although most people know that vaccines effectively protect against serious infectious diseases, approximately one-quarter of parents in a recent survey believe that infants get more vaccines than are good for them, and that too many immunizations could overwhelm an infant's immune system. The Immunization Safety Review Committee reviewed the evidence regarding the hypothesis that multiple immunizations increase the risk for immune dysfunction. Specifically, the committee looked at evidence of potential biological mechanisms and at epidemiological evidence for or against causality related to risk for infections, the autoimmune disease type 1 diabetes, and allergic disorders.

The Ethics of Vaccination by Alberto Giubilini Pdf

This open access book discusses individual, collective, and institutional responsibilities with regard to vaccination from the perspective of philosophy and public health ethics. It addresses the issue of what it means for a collective to be morally responsible for the realisation of herd immunity and what the implications of collective responsibility are for individual and institutional responsibilities. The first chapter introduces some key concepts in the vaccination debate, such as ‘herd immunity’, ‘public goods’, and ‘vaccine refusal’; and explains why failure to vaccinate raises certain ethical issues. The second chapter analyses, from a philosophical perspective, the relationship between individual, collective, and institutional responsibilities with regard to the realisation of herd immunity. The third chapter is about the principle of least restrictive alternative in public health ethics and its implications for vaccination policies. Finally, the fourth chapter presents an ethical argument for unqualified compulsory vaccination, i.e. for compulsory vaccination that does not allow for any conscientious objection. The book will appeal to philosophers interested in public health ethics and the general public interested in the philosophical underpinning of different arguments about our moral obligations with regard to vaccination.
