Cases of measles are on the rise globally, including in Europe, Central Asia, and North America. In the UK, cases are the highest they've been in 25 years. But why?
Join hosts Naomi Stewart and Karl Byrne in this bonus episode of LSHTM Viral as they speak to Professor Liam Smeeth, Director of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine about the very real consequences of the highly contagious disease and the damage of false claims about the MMR vaccine dating back to the 90s. We also speak to Professor Heidi Larson, Director of The Vaccine Confidence Project about the rates of trust in vaccines globally and how to engage with empathy to tackle falling vaccination coverage.
