Here are a few ideas to get you started: http://www.voicesforvaccines.org/blog/ http://www.thinktwice.com In a Word Document, create a list of at least 4 websites. Then, create a table that lists the PROS for vaccines (from those in support) and CONS (for those against) with the number of the resource shown behind it. List at least 6 PROS and 6 CONS.

You must use these resources and make a list of the 6 Pros and Cons. Provide a list of the specific resources you used. These must be peer-reviewed resources. You will create a copy of the Table you made in Part I and then add a column that summarizes your research finding with the resource(s) noted. You will be evaluated on both your summary as well as whether the resources you utilized are peer-reviewed and quality resources. Part III: What are the potential side effects and benefits of vaccines (5 points) Pick 2 vaccines that are currently administered to children in the U.S. Find the vaccine on the CDC’s website and list the disease that the vaccine protects against (benefit) as well as the side effects (both mild and serious).
