Abstract:
An international workshop organised by the Mérieux Foundation with the co-sponsorship of Aventis-Pasteur and the European Vaccine Manufacturers (Annecy, France; Feb 26-28), assembled policy makers, paediatricians, and journalists as well as representatives from industry, patient advocacy groups, research agencies, international organisations, non-governmental organisations, and coalitions to discuss "vaccination in tomorrow's society: new information pathways". The purpose of the workshop was to identify problems inherent to the social acceptance of vaccination, and ways of enhancing information sources and exchange of data. The discussions revealed three key areas for action: improving benefit and risk assessment tools, attentiveness to public concerns, and education and timely information for health-care professionals. For all these areas, it was agreed that greater financial and human resources commitment is needed.
