Written by Martin G. Myers, MD and Diego Pineda, MS, recognized immunization experts, “Do Vaccines Cause That?” is a clear and comprehensive discussion of the concerns related to vaccine safety.

Myers and Pineda, colleagues at the National Network for Immunization Information (NNii), have co-authored more than 80 peer-reviewed articles on vaccines. Dr. Myers is the former director of the National Vaccine Program Office and is a professor in the Departments of Pediatrics and Preventive Medicine and Community Health at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Texas.

“Do Vaccines Cause That?” is divided into two sections. The first section focuses on side effects, risks, cause versus coincidence and reliable information sources. The second half is devoted to specific vaccine safety concerns, such as autism, asthma, immune disorders, SIDS, birth defects and cancer.

The take home message for parents: Separate the facts from the myths.
