Description

Understand the historical roots of vaccine hesitancy with Vaccinations and Public Concern in History. Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Studies in the History of Science, Technology and Medicine series, this book examines the vernacular beliefs and practices that influence decisions regarding inoculation. Dr. Andrea Kitta uses ethnographic, media, and narrative analyses to explore the explanatory models people use when making health decisions. By studying the nature of inoculation distrust and miscommunication, this work provides a deep look into how rumors and risk perception shape public health outcomes. The research presented here is designed to assist in the development of public health education programs. It offers insights that help create promotional materials capable of responding to patient fears, doubts, and specific understandings of risk. This is an essential resource for those studying the history of science and the social complexities of medical communication.
