In this episode of the Healthy Project podcast, I sit down with Dr. Shah, a physician geriatrician and Chief Medical Officer at Broadlawns Medical Center, to discuss the importance of vaccination in protecting both individuals and communities. We delve into common misconceptions about vaccines, such as the idea that they change DNA or make women infertile, and explain the concept of herd immunity. Dr. Shah also shares personal stories of how vaccines have positively impacted the lives of patients and communities, particularly in minority populations. Listen to this informative and enlightening conversation to learn the facts about vaccines and why they are crucial in the fight against infectious diseases.
