Most of us are acutely aware that the topic of vaccines has become extremely controversial over the last several years. And in a world where this topic is heavily censored, there has to be a place for open discussion, evidence-based education, and informed decisions. Today, you’re going to hear a balanced perspective on vaccines, vaccine history, and what the research actually says. Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh is a board-certified pediatrician who specializes in integrative medicine. He’s also the author of the new book, Between A Shot and a Hard Place. Today, he’s back on The Model Health Show for an important discussion on the nuances of vaccines and the truth about vaccine safety. In this conversation, you’re going to learn about how vaccines work and why they’ve become so divisive in our society. You’re going to learn the truth about vaccine studies, and what’s missing from the general conversation on long-term side effects. This may be one of the most polarizing topics of our time – but Dr. Warsh brings common sense, research, and truth to the forefront. I hope you enjoy this interview with Dr. Joel Warsh!
