Summary
Diseases that were largely eradicated in the United States a generation ago--whooping cough, measles, mumps--are returning, in part because nervous parents are skipping their children's shots. NOVA's 'Vaccines-Calling the Shots' takes viewers around the world to track epidemics, explore the science behind vaccinations, hear from parents wrestling with vaccine-related questions, and shed light on the risks of opting out.
