My Comment:

There is a lot of confusion and fear surrounding vaccines (or so-called immunizations). You can find information supporting vaccines on the Internet and you can find anti-vaccination information.

For parents in Michigan, you can hear an vaccination expert speak on this subject.

Mary Tocco will be speaking about vaccinations during the month of April at various locations in Michigan.

Mary Tocco is on the Board of Directors for WAVE, World Association for Vaccine Education, is the Director of Vaccine Research and Education for Michigan Opposing Mandatory Vaccines, is also affiliated with Mothering Magazine as a member of Ask the Experts.
