Health & Living Jr 2019 Part 3 of 4: The Battle Over Vaccination

The biggest ongoing battle in medicine today is over the issue of vaccination. What is fuelling parents’ anxieties about vaccination, and is the medical community able to counter the anti-vaccination movement with scientific arguments alone? This is an edited recording of the panel discussion that was held at the BFM Health & Living Jr 2019 by AIA Vitality. Members of the panel are: Dato’ Dr Musa Mohd Nordin, Consultant Paediatrician and Neonatologist; Dr Karim Bettache, Social Psychologist, Monash University Malaysia; and Chan Li Jin, Health Activist.
