dc.description.abstractPublic perceptions of vaccination have changed greatly since George Bernard Shaw unleashed his diatribe against the practice. Today it is recognised that, far from spreading disease, vaccination is one of the cheapest and most effective public health interventions. Immunization against infectious diseases has drastically reduced mortality and morbidity, particularly among children, and has diminished the disease burden caused by poliomyelitis, rubella, measles, tetanus, diphtheria and whooping cough, amongst others.en_ZA
