Officially launching on February 9, 2011 but already shipping from amazon.com, Vaccine Epidemic is a whole new way of looking at the vaccine debate.
I am proud to be a part of this effort. Over twenty authors have contributed chapters on a wide array of topics, including law, ethics, media, human rights, medicine, epidemiology, history, philosophy, and personal stories of vaccine injury. In addition to my role as contributing editor, I also authored a chapter on vaccine exemptions and forced child removal.
We offer parents, medical professionals and others ways to critically examine the issues surrounding vaccination. But let's be clear, "Vaccine Epidemic" is NOT anti-vaccine. It is pro-vaccination choice. It is in favor of informed consent concerning vaccination. Parents (and others), regardless of what they ultimately decide is the right choice for themselves and their family, should have the opportunity to make their decision from a position of knowledge. Their decision should not be based on fear, coercion, and lack of knowledge concerning their rights and the potential risks and benefits of vaccination.
Vaccine Epidemic" rises above the name-calling and rhetoric and offers a studied and serious look at the issues concerning vaccination and why the book is not closed on the link between vaccines and a wide variety of diseases and disorders. It is an eye-opening read, no matter where you stand on issues surrounding vaccination.
