Publication Type: Journal Article

In a nutshell: This study corroborated some previous qualitative work but indicated that the shrinking group of parents now rejecting MMR comprises those with more extreme and complex anti-immunisation views, whilst parents opting for single vaccines may use second-hand information about the controversy. In reponse policy makers and practitioners should revise their expectations of today’s MMR decision-makers, and their methods for supporting them.
