Barriers to Adult Immunization
The American Journal of Medicine, 2008Our aim was to provide a better understanding of why many adults fail to receive recommended immunizations. Consumers (N = 2,002) and healthcare providers (N = 200) completed structured telephone interviews concerning their attitudes and knowledge about adult vaccines and factors affecting their vaccination decisions.

Active Immunizations for Adults
Annual Review of Medicine, 1980Lack of effective antiviral drugs has led to dependence on vaccines for control of many viral diseases.
