To shed light on the differing views surrounding childhood vaccinations, I found two articles that look at both sides of the argument.

The other article was based on public opinion, gathered through an online poll of 2,306 American adults. The article used those opinions to delineate the circumstances in which people believed that childhood vaccines should be required (Over Three-Fourths, 2014).
