Program Overview
This presentation will discuss vaccine hesitancy and measles are both on the rise. Federal policies have mirrored increasing public distrust of vaccinations and have created confusion among families of small children. More and more parents are refusing vaccinations at the point of care, creating threats to herd immunity and public health in general. As of February 21, 2026, the CDC has reported 982 confirmed cases of measles in the U.S., with states around Alabama reporting rising cases. The measles resurgence across the country is a prime example of this downward trend in rates of immunization. Many pediatricians have never seen measles cases in their practices, and this program will provide information to help them be prepared to address this disease as well as take steps to prevent it in their patient populations.
