I got a shocking wake-up call at my annual physical: my childhood measles vaccine had worn off. How was that possible? This experience made me realize just how much I didn’t know about vaccines despite getting them without question my whole life, an experience I wrote about here.
In this episode, I sit down with immunologist Dr. Paida Katsande to uncover the surprising truths behind vaccine technology. Why do some vaccines last a lifetime while others fade? How do cutting-edge mRNA and viral vector technologies actually work? And what else don’t most of us know about the shots we take for granted?
Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about vaccines. Listen now—and consider getting an MMR booster!
