Vaccines are the Clark Kent of health care.

Unassuming, quiet, not super sexy... But when the bad guys
start causing problems, they're powerful allies.

October's Topic of the Month is a primer on vaccines:  

  • their importance
  • how they work
  • safety
  • what's in them
  • why they're sometimes combined.

Also in this month's TOM, important tips on how to tell good health information from bad.  (..and that can certainly be a challenge in today's world!) 
Luckily, asking the right questions and watching for a few red flags will help you filter out inaccurate information and focus on information that's trustworthy.
