Question 29

“The WHO has declared the anti-vax attitude as one of the 10 most important threats to human health in the world today.” Ofer Levy, 2019
Vaccines do not cause autism
Let’s talk about autism all right so we all know people are worried that they’re going to get autism that their child is going to get autism if they’re vaccinated how did this start how did this mess start: 1998 doctor published a study in the Lancet it’s which is an English medical journal saying that there was a link between Autism and then MMR vaccine - his peer review false information - time proven that he lied this information was out so easily spread and still to this day what 20 years - 25 years later we’re still and people still have a fear of vaccines fear
The vaccine injury this is a little different than the autism topic but this is also kind of what fuel some of that that movement that that anti-vax movement is vaccine injury a thing do people get hurt after vaccines; are minimal: shoulder injuries one of the biggest ones and usually that’s Administration but there’s absolutely injury yet there is such a thing as vaccine injury as nurses you know we support this you know we support evidence-based medicine and this is what that is this all of the education all the research supports vaccines and as nurses that’s what we support we’re all free to have our own opinion
Can be compensated because of vaccine injuries it’s a very minimal because it’s not that common this is very strict guidelines on following it you know when was the injury when was the vaccine have you had a previous one there’s all this stuff to go through but we do recognize

Answer 29

Vaccine injury
