Hello!

I'm currently working on my PhD in Public Health at UNLV. My husband and I have been discussing this a lot lately, it's terrible to see this disease making a comeback.

My question is: what steps do you think we need to start taking to reverse the distrust in science and the medical field? Many people seem to be "doing their own research" but in the wrong direction (ie. following science deniers). How can we as public health professionals begin fixing this? I know this is an intense questions, but I look forward to your response!

Great question! As many others have said - any doctor would be thrilled to help you out. They will also help you with any vaccinations you may need. You can get several at one time and be perfectly fine. It's a scary situation if you've never been exposed to it before. If you don't want to go to your normal doctor, your local public health department will also help you out.

Best of luck! You can do this! :)
