Cool stories on vaccines, privacy and creativity
In this week's Editor's Picks...
Time magazine weighs in on vaccine safety and health (the individual's and society's): How Safe Are Vaccines?
"More and more, all this wrangling over risks and benefits is leading confused parents simply to opt out of vaccines altogether.... That is forcing both policymakers and parents to wrestle with a dilemma that goes to the heart of democracy: whether the common welfare should trump the individual's right to choose."
The San Francisco Chronicle explains one way in which your private health information isn't as private as you might think: Hospitals, Patients Clash on Privacy Rights.
"When patients check into hospitals or doctor offices, they presume their information will be kept in strictest confidence, but often, amid the pile of papers, they overlook fine print describing how their personal information can be farmed out for fundraising."
And Scientific American ponders the inner workings of ourselves: How to Unleash Your Creativity.
"Three noted experts on creativity, each with a very different perspective and background, reveal powerful ways to unleash your creative self."
