All Sides of the Issue
[REGISTER FOR WEBCAST HERE]
We would like to extend a personal invitation for physicians, health officials, legislators and parents to join in a historic discussion on October 23rd, at Hackensack University Medical Center. “A Forum on Vaccines: All Sides of the Issue” will address issues relating to the safety of the recommended vaccine schedule for infants and children, which continue to emerge as a national debate resulting in numerous news articles. This is particularly true here in New Jersey.
The forum and panel discussion will provide differing perspectives on vaccinations, vaccine policy, parental concerns and finding common ground. The guest speakers will be:
- Deirdre Imus, founder and president, The Deirdre Imus Environmental Center for Pediatric Oncology®
- Heather Howard, New Jersey Commissioner of the Department of Health and Senior Services
- Jeffrey Boscamp, M.D., FAAP, chair, American Academy of Pediatrics/NJ Chapter Infectious Diseases Committee, chairman and physician-in-chief, The Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital at Hackensack University Medical Center
- Margaret C. Fisher, M.D., FAAP, chair, Section of Infectious Diseases, American Academy of Pediatrics, and medical director, The Children’s Hospital at Monmouth Medical Center
- Lawrence Rosen, M.D., chief of Pediatric Integrative Medicine, The Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital at Hackensack University Medical Center
- David Kirby, journalist and author Evidence of Harm: Mercury In Vaccines and The Autism Epidemic: A Medical Controversy
Each speaker will provide a professional perspective and will then participate in a panel discussion and question and answer session.
This forum will bring together physicians, health officials, legislators and parents and present great opportunities to share information vitally important to all of us. The forum also hopes to stimulate discussion and further consideration about the trajectory of public health policies.
The forum will be held in the Hekemian Conference Center at Hackensack University Medical Center, 30 Prospect Ave., Hackensack, New Jersey from 1:30pm to 5:00pm.
As seating is limited, we are reserving a place for you. Please confirm your attendance by contacting Ms. Bonnie Eskenazi at 201-336-8071 or beskenazi@humed.com by Friday, October 17th.
We look forward to your participation in this important and unprecedented discussion.
