CUGH Webinar: Vaccines and Vaccine Hesitancy

July 3, 2019

Vaccines have been a vital asset in reducing childhood mortality and morbidity. They have saved millions of children’s lives around the world and are one of the most cost-effective public health measures.

Despite overwhelming evidence to the life-saving properties of vaccines, there has been an increase in vaccine hesitancy in many parts of the world. This has resulted in a deadly resurgence of preventable infectious diseases that is claiming an increasing number of children’s lives.

Join on Tuesday, July 16 from 3 until 4 p.m. for a webinar by two global leaders in the field of vaccines and vaccine hesitancy to learn about this challenge and what we can do to enable children to access the vaccines they need to protect them from an array of preventable and potentially lethal diseases.
