Stuck

How Vaccine Rumors Start - and Why They Don't Go Away

De: Heidi J. Larson

Narrado por: Chloe Cannon

Vaccine reluctance and refusal are no longer limited to the margins of society. Debates around vaccines' necessity - along with questions around their side effects - have gone mainstream, blending with geopolitical conflicts, political campaigns, celebrity causes, and "natural" lifestyles to win a growing number of hearts and minds. Today's anti-vaccine positions find audiences where they've never existed previously.

Stuck examines how the issues surrounding vaccine hesitancy are, more than anything, about people feeling left out of the conversation. A new dialogue is long overdue, one that addresses the many types of vaccine hesitancy and the social factors that perpetuate them. To do this, Stuck provides a clear-eyed examination of the social vectors that transmit vaccine rumors, their manifestations around the globe, and how these individual threads are all connected.

Amazing book, terrible performance

One of the most interesting, fascinating, enlightening and good books I have ever listened to. It is a shame that the reading is robotic and detracts from enjoyment

Clear compelling evidence and data

An Easy to understand, Well researched look at the rise of vaccine hesitancy. Written without judgement and with a desire to understand issues are trust and misinformation.
