With so much information on immunization available and public concern about vaccine safety on the rise, it’s easy to get overwhelmed or confused about the facts. Parents and caregivers may have questions about vaccination:
- Does my child need all these shots?
- Do vaccines really work?
- Are the vaccines safe?
Your Child’s Best Shot answers these questions, and more. The updated 3rd edition features:
- new chapters on the most recently available vaccines: rotavirus, human papillomavirus (HPV), and hepatitis A.
- the latest research on vaccine effectiveness, safety and side effects.
- an expanded and updated Questions and Answers chapter, and
- information about new vaccines in development.
Your Child's Best Shot still includes detailed information on all recommended childhood vaccines and reproducible fact sheets that health professionals can distribute to parents. It's a must for anyone involved in childhood immunization.
First published by the Canadian Paediatric Society in 1997, Your Child’s Best Shot is the definitive source of information on vaccines and immunization programs for parents nationwide. Revised, expanded and updated, this user-friendly edition of Your Child’s Best Shot is the best general guide on vaccines for parents and health care professionals alike.
