Abundant information regarding immunizations and vaccines is available on the World Wide Web. This report was prepared as a guide to reliable Internet sources for health care providers, researchers, and patients or parents interested in gaining Web-based information on these topics. I describe comprehensive Web sites about immunizations, meetings on immunizations, and clinical trials on vaccines and for journals and publications on vaccines, organizations providing immunization information, and pharmaceutical companies and vaccine manufacturers.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 April 2012.
All research outputs
#14,602,949
of 25,377,790 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#12,400
of 16,854 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#123,901
of 147,715 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#77
of 87 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,377,790 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,854 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 31.7. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 147,715 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 87 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
