Dr. Gifford addresses common misconceptions about vaccines, clarifying that their primary purpose is to prevent severe illness rather than infection. He also highlights the need to understand individual vaccine hesitancy and advocates for using motivational interviewing techniques to build trust and encourage vaccination.
