Half of Pet Owners Skip Essential Vaccines, Jeopardizing the Health of All Pets

A recent trend fueled by misinformation and financial barriers is causing growing vaccine hesitancy among pet owners in America. A new study has shown that pet owners across the country have become increasingly fearful that vaccines will cause autism in their pets. This completely baseless fact is endangering our pets and, by extension, our communities. 

Sign the petition to demand the American Veterinary Medical Association work with state veterinary boards to make essential vaccines mandatory and freely available at vet locations throughout America! 

The study revealed over 37% of dog owners have the incorrect fear that vaccines could cause autism in pets. However, many scientific studies have thoroughly debunked the fear that vaccines could cause autism in humans and animals alike, making this new trend all the more dangerous. 

The resistance to vaccinating pets threatens the fight against deadly diseases such as rabies and distemper, posing risks not only to animal welfare but also to public health. It is essential to reverse the tide of vaccine hesitancy, and the American Veterinary Medical Association can help. 

Sign the petition to urge the American Veterinary Medical Association to work with state veterinary boards to make life saving vaccines mandatory and freely available through America.
