While some vaccinations are a requirement for students to enter public school, there are many parents who object to the vaccinations for personal reasons.

Our guests Dr. Jon Abramson, Pediatric Infectious Disease Specialist and Dr. Lance Rodewald director of the Immunization Services Division at the CDC share with host Dr. Bill Rutenberg their feelings on vaccination exemptions and what doctors can do to help minimize the risk to the community at large.
