The need for a multi-disciplinary perspective on vaccine hesitancy and acceptance

The authors of this article were invited members of a workgroup sponsored by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in the fall of 2013. They came away convinced that a more holistic perspective of childhood vaccination is necessary in order to understand and ultimately address the complex, multi-faceted issues surrounding vaccine hesitancy and vaccine acceptance in the United States. The authors suggest that such a holistic view can only be obtained by carefully considering the findings and perspectives of research from a variety of disciplines, including, but not limited to, public health.
