Fear on missing out on a vaccine. Misvaccinophobia

We recommend these books for self help


Fear of missing out on a vaccine is the fear that someone will not be vaccinated and due to this they will catch an infectious disease.
This section is about the fear of missing out on a vaccine. This fear is usually strong enough to cause people to get vaccinated, but it can also be overcome through rationalizing that the odds of getting an illness are low.
The problem with vaccines for some people, who like to think critically, is that many vaccines are not tested in enough depth to warrant their effectiveness. For example, during the Zika virus outbreak there were many cases where people were told they had been successfully immunized from Zika when they had not been given enough time for antibodies to form due to insufficient time-frame between vaccination and infection.
