Dr Langille missed the most important point in his review of Your Child’s Best Shot.1 It’s published by the Canadian Paediatric Society, which represents more than 2000 pediatricians. Its credibility is therefore very high, making it an extremely valuable resource for practitioners and parents. This cannot be understated in the current age of Internet misinformation.
Parents concerned about vaccines, most of whom are educated, are looking for credible sources of information. Your Child’s Best Shot should be on every family physician’s bookshelf and recommended to any parent who questions the value of immunization.
