The truth about anti-vaxxers
When it comes to whether parents should vaccinate their children, there can be a lot of conflicting arguments to be made.\n\nEveryone has heard the myths, the studies, the "real-life" cases, but what should we believe? Well, the answer is pretty simple -- the anti-vaccination movement is wrong.\n\nAccording to exclusive Ipsos polling conducted for Global News, two-thirds of parents believe vaccinations are necessary but one in three still worry about side effects.\n\nAnd while 85 per cent of parents surveyed say they believe vaccinations are safe, 85 per cent also feel there is a lot of misinformation out there.\n\nOn this week\u2019s episode of the Global News original podcast This is Why, Global reporters Heather Yourex-West and Jeff Semple sit down with Niki Reitmayer to discuss their new series, Unvaccinated: Canada\u2019s public health at risk.\n\nIf you enjoy the\xa0This is Why\xa0podcast, please take a minute to rate it on\xa0Apple Podcasts\xa0or\xa0Google Podcasts, tell us what you think and please tell a friend about the show.\n\nTwitter:\xa0@thisiswhy\n\nEmail:\xa0thisiswhy@curiouscast.ca
