New recommendations have been provided to counter vaccine misinformation, after a flawed analysis gained publicity this year around anti-vaccination.
Henry Ford Health, the health system whose records were used, has published a fact-check describing the findings as preliminary, unreviewed and open to misinterpretation.
The article, published in Clinical Infectious Diseases, also recommends ways to counteract the widespread misinformation that bolsters anti-vaccination talking points.
Follow-up was also unequal: the median was 970 days for vaccinated children and 461 days for unvaccinated children.
The research also sets out recommendations for tackling misinformation and poor-quality evidence.
