Dr. Milton, chair of the Maryland Institute for Applied Environmental Health, was a guest on Destination Casa Blanca (The Latino Voice in Politics) last week, and the episode has now been made available online.
In the episode, "H1N1: The Vaccine Debate," Dr. Milton shares his expertise regarding who is most at risk for catching the virus, and why. According to him, the risks of taking the vaccine to protect against H1N1 are much lower than risks associated with actually catching the virus. He especially encourages those born after 1957 to get vaccinated. He adds that it's not just a matter of protecting ourselves, but our loved ones around us, because there are some for which the vaccine is not as effective, and others who can't take the vaccine due to allergies.
