Vaccines are a debate, whether we want them to be or not, and we're living in the age of misinformation, digital noise and social media conspiracies. 'Vaccinate' demystifies the strange and intricate world of vaccines: it explains what a vaccine is, how they work, how thy are developed and what happens when they meet our bodies. David Miles has worked in immunology - as a scientist and latterly as a communicator, for two decades.
