We find ourselves at a pivotal moment in public health.
On one side, we are experiencing an extraordinary wave of vaccine innovation, offering new platforms, protections, and avenues for disease prevention. Conversely, we face an unprecedented decline in public trust. Vaccine misinformation has transitioned from a fringe concern to a dominant force influencing clinical practices, public health strategies, and national policies. In 2025, while vaccine science has never been more robust, science alone isn’t sufficient. Sister brands, Infection Control Today and Medical Economics, convened a prominent panel of experts, including frontline physicians, national policy makers, and specialists in infectious diseases, to help us understand this shifting landscape.
