Why are childhood vaccinations so important?
A recent outbreak of measles in Texas has affected two dozen people, including a 4-month-old infant. All cases have been linked to a mega-church that emphasizes faith healing and discourages vaccinations. According the Rachel Vreeman, M.D., many parents are refusing to vaccinate their children due to the myth that vaccinations cause autism, even though evidence has shown this to be false. Dr. Vree....

Childhood Vaccine Beliefs Reported by Somali and Non-Somali Parents
Conclusions:
Statistically significant differences in perceptions and use of vaccines were reported by Somali and non-Somali participants. Somali parents are more likely to believe that the MMR vaccine causes autism and more likely to refuse the MMR vaccine than non-Somali parents. These beliefs have contributed to an immunization gap between Somali and non-Somali children.

Comparing the health and social protection effects of measles vaccination strategies in Ethiopia
Publication date: Available online 16 June 2015 Source:Social Science & Medicine Author(s): Julia Driessen , Zachary D. Olson , Dean Jamison , Stéphane Verguet Vaccination coverage rates often mask wide variation in access, uptake, and cost of providing vaccination. Financial incentives have been effective at creating demand for social services in a variety of settings. Using methods of extended cost-effectiveness analysis, we compare the health and economic implications of three different vaccine delivery strategies for measles vaccination in Ethiopia: i) routine immunization, ii) routine immunization with fina...

Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Titers in Air Force Recruits Below Herd Immunity Thresholds?
Conclusions Seroprevalences for measles, mumps, and rubella antibodies among a large cohort of recruits entering U.S. Air Force basic training were generally lower than levels required to maintain herd immunity. In order to reduce the incidence of mumps infections, the Department of Defense should consider obtaining antibody titers for measles, mumps, and rubella and vaccinating all individuals susceptible to one or more of the viruses.

Predictors of Vaccination in India for Children Aged 12–36 Months
Conclusions India’s immunization coverage remained low in 2008, with just slightly more than half of all children aged 12–36 months fully vaccinated with UIP-recommended vaccines. A better understanding of the predictors for vaccination can help shape interventions to reduce disparities in full vaccination among children of differing demographic/cultural groups.
