Last Friday (under the sponsorship of the Institute for Policy Innovation and the expert direction of Dr. Merrill Matthews) I participated in a discussion of the importance of vaccines, why the CDC may be restricting access to a new meningitis vaccine for infants, the impact this may have on patient care, and a new study evaluating the disparities in how government programs place economic value on human life.
