Archived Webinar: Vaccination and Vaccine-Preventable Childhood Diseases: Data and Trends

The recording of our July 8 webinar on vaccine-preventable childhood diseases, with a special focus on California data, is now available.

California has 39% of the nation’s whooping cough cases. Vaccines are one of the simplest, most cost-effective tools to improve public health. This webinar explored trends in vaccination and vaccine-preventable childhood diseases and the policy implications of these trends.

Regan Foust, Senior Manager for Data and Research at the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health, highlights trends for the U.S. and California and gives an overview of kidsdata.org. Beth Jarosz, research associate at the Population Reference Bureau, and Reshma Naik, senior policy analyst at the Population Reference Bureau, present trends in vaccination coverage and vaccine-preventable childhood diseases for major world regions.
