Journal of Vaccine Research 2024, Vol.14, No.6, 287-296 http://medscipublisher.com/index.php/jvr 294 8.4 Strengthening education and awareness Teaching people about how safe and effective vaccines are is very important. Good education can help fight myths and fears about vaccines and encourage more people to get vaccinated. Campaigns should share clear messages about the strong protection and low risk of vaccines. Studies show that vaccines like MMR and MMRV have high success rates and only mild side effects (Zepp et al., 2007; Deichmann et al., 2015). Future research should also find the best ways to talk to the public and help them make informed choices about vaccines.
