The need to teach vaccine safety to basic scientists and public health officials.

Vaccination has been shown to be the most successful measure in preventing millions of mortalities and morbidities related to infectious diseases. Higher rates of vaccination lead to a greater number of protected individuals in the community. While vaccine safety is a primary concern, misinformation accessed through various communication channels can lead to misconceptions about vaccination that are often hard to address. When the public collects information, they usually do not check for accuracy. To overcome the problem, the most effective way is to disseminate information through teaching facts about vaccine benefits and harms to the public and the authorities in advance. To encourage the public to participate and support vaccination programs, basic scientists and public health officials must be trained and updated about vaccines and vaccination benefits and harms to be able to inform the public.
