Vaccine Myths

Dr. Bernadine Cruz  on Pet Life Radio

The debate over the need and safety of vaccines in pets and people seems to always be in the news.  Is their risk worth their purported benefits?  Do vaccines cause autism in children?  Do vaccines cause cancer in pets?  You got your flu vaccine last year and you still came down with the flu…what gives? 

To answer questions on vaccines in pets is my guest Liza Rudolph.  She is a boarded veterinary technician specialist in Canine and Feline Clinical Practice along with Small Animal Internal Medicine.  She works in both general and referral practices, lectures and publishes articles for pet owners and veterinary professionals.
