Nevertheless, the anti-vaccination campaign is on the increase, disseminating false information about vaccine safety on the internet and leading to a significant drop in immunization rates throughout the world. Throughout this historical moment, it is critical to comprehend the causes for vaccine apprehension and to devise effective methods to counter anti-vaccination proponents' propaganda. As a result, we looked at how anti-vaccination activists behaved on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Quora, Instagram, and YouTube. Anti-vaccination advocates, in comparison to provaccination supporters, share conspiracy ideas and utilize emotive language, according to one study. We show that anti-vaccination activists are more active on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Quora, Instagram, and YouTube, and that they distribute their material with the help of powerful influencers. Based on the contents created by a small percentage of profiles, we show that the movement's success is dependent on a strong feeling of community, with the community at large functioning as a sounding board for anti-vaccination speech to spread online. Based on these findings, we support measures that attempt to stop the spread of misleading vaccine information by focusing on the anti-vaccination movement. We also offer ways to enhance health organization's communication strategies and establish a community of motivated influencers that promote the transmission of scientific discoveries, particularly concerns connected to vaccinations and their safety, based on our findings.

We recently completed a study involving nine serosurveys from 2018 to 2020 in five districts of India among three age groups (children 9 months to < 5 years; 5 to < 15 years of age, and women 15 to < 50 years of age before and after the measles and rubella (MR) vaccination campaigns). In Palghar district of Maharashtra all individuals in 30 selected clusters were enumerated, and 13 individuals per age group were randomly sampled. We established the procedures to return the results to the respondents for each stage of the survey. Of the 1,166 individuals selected for the measles and rubella serosurvey, 971 (83%) agreed to participate and were enrolled. Participants were informed that they will only be contacted if they test seronegative for measles and/or rubella antibodies. Overal...
