Further evidence refuting link between MMR vaccine and autism (p 963)
A UK study published in this week's issue of THE LANCET provides further evidence that measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) immunisation is not associated with the development of autism or other pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs) in children. view more (2004-09-08)
Combating anthrax: Results of study published this month as researchers look for a better vaccine

Childhood vaccines cause financial burden to many health care providers
The costs that health care providers are charged and reimbursed for childhood vaccines vary widely, and the high cost of some immunizations is leading to significant financial strain for some physicians, according to a pair of new studies from the University of Michigan Health System. view more (2008-12-01)
