Is this Normal? episode six is here

On this week's Is This Normal? Public Health Agency's Health Protection Consultant Jillian Johnston talks to Sheena and Claire about vaccinations and why we shouldn't fear them.

A sometimes contentious issue particularly around the MMR vaccine , Jillian reassures parents they are 'doing the best for their children'.

We also discuss babies and kids vaccination programmes, pregnancy vaccines and the new HPV vaccine for boys which is set to be introduced this September across Northern Ireland.

You can listen to all of the Public Health Agency's expert advice on vaccines as well as Sheena and Claire's own experiences of taking their own kids to get the dreaded jabs on the podcast below.
