To vaccinate, or not? What would you do to protect the ones you love?

Diseases that were largely eradicated forty years ago are returning.
Across the world children are getting sick and dying from preventable
conditions because nervous parents are skipping their children’s shots.
And it’s not just kids: adults, too, are being hard hit. Yet the stories
of vaccine reactions are frightening, with rare cases of people being
damaged, even killed, by vaccines. How do we decide whether to vaccinate
or not, and what are the real risks? JABBED, made by 2012 Emmy
Award-winning Australian documentary filmmaker Sonya Pemberton, travels
the globe to look at the real science behind vaccinations, tracks real
epidemics, and investigates the real cost of opting out. Talking with
vaccine-makers, alternative healers, psychologists, anthropologists, and
parents, the film posing the potent question: what would you do to
protect the ones you love? Two years in the making JABBED will confound
your expectations, whatever your position on the most important and
divisive public health question of the decade.
“JABBED is a thrilling ride through the turbulent vaccine debate
that has caused some parents to refuse vaccines for their children. The
movie walks a careful line by at once showing the anguish of parents
confronted with the choice of injecting a biological fluid into their
children’s arms and the science that supports vaccines as the right
thing to do. The movie also shows what can happen–and what is
happening–to communities that now suffer outbreaks of diseases like
measles and whooping cough because too many people are more frightened
of vaccines than the diseases they prevent.”
Dr Paul Offit, USA
“A refreshingly well balanced and informative look at
vaccination. ‘JABBED’ doesn’t’ shy from the small risks of serious
complications following immunisation, yet clearly highlights these risks
are minor when compared to the risks of living in an under-vaccinated
community. I hope that every parent facing a decision about whether to
vaccinate their children will take the time to watch this, and think it
through.”
Professor Ian Frazer, Australia
