Routine vaccination has been hailed as one of the top public health achievements of the last century. However, despite the reduced number of cases of and deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases such as pertussis and measles, outbreaks continue to occur as more parents fail to adequately vaccinate their children because of misinformation about immunizations. This article describes the challenges of making sure all children in the United States are fully immunized and what physicians need to know to effectively work with parents who may be hesitant to vaccinate their children.
常规疫苗接种被誉为上个世纪最重要的公共卫生成就之一。然而，尽管百日咳和麻疹等疫苗可预防疾病的病例数和死亡人数有所减少，但由于更多家长因对免疫接种存在错误认知而未能充分为孩子接种疫苗，疫情仍不断爆发。本文描述了确保美国所有儿童都能完全免疫所面临的挑战，以及医生为有效与可能对给孩子接种疫苗犹豫不决的家长合作所需要了解的事项。
