Second Conference on Controversies in Vaccination in Adults, Munich, Germany
Vaccines are responsible for many global public health successes, such as the eradication of smallpox and significant reductions in other serious infections like polio and measles. Even so, vaccinations have also long been the subject of various ethical controversies. For adult vaccinations, it has been advocating to protect against illness, absenteeism from work, hospitalization, or even death; however, adult vaccination rates, on average, are far lower than other population age group for immunization and infectious diseases.
Over the years, the field of adult vaccination has undergone enormous expansion in clinical and basic data, as well as that of field-related technology. With the problem of diseases reaching epidemiological dimensions, treatment possibilities have digressed diversely. This development has created a need for debates on the numerous controversial issues, and to attain clinical conclusions.
The conference will bring together researchers and scientist in this field to debate on unresolved clinical and therapeutic dilemmas, resulting in agreement over all issues, and supported by evidence-based medicine and opinions of experts. It will aim at reaching solutions, and providing clinicians with conclusive recommendations.For further information, please visit:
