Newsmakers: A Rise Of US Measles Cases, Along With Continued “Vaccine Hesitancy”

Recently, the West Virginia Legislature passed a bill which could allow more vaccination exemptions for students not attending public school.

In a WTOP-FM interview, Health Affairs Editor-In-Chief Alan Weil mentioned that public health research has observed a correlation between more vaccination exemptions and increases in preventable diseases, as evidenced by a current rise in measles cases.

Weil noted that parents’ reluctance to vaccinate their children can stem from multiple sources, including mistrusting public health information campaigns.

Weil also mentioned a new Health Affairs study about the growing rate of perinatal mood and anxiety (PMAD) diagnoses in the US, by Kara Zivin and coauthors, part of the upcoming April edition, a theme issue about perinatal mental health and well-being.
