Have you heard about research that suggests that childhood immunizations are associated with the development of autism? Have you heard that the publication that reported this research and it’s principal author have been discredited? Why do you think that many parents are still very fearful about having their children immunized? Your posts should be at least 300 words in length

Strategy to Succeed and Homeostasis
Anatomy and Physiology can be a daunting (but also exciting!) course. We will cover every body system in this course and Anatomy and Physiology II. It’s a good idea to take a moment this week to self-reflect and get yourself organized for the upcoming term.
Throughout this course, we will often return to a common principle which regulates the human body: homeostasis. For your discussion post, provide one example of homeostasis within the body. Provide a brief 3-4 sentence explanation of the example you choose.
Additionally, identify and discuss 1-2 obstacles you may face with this course while learning anatomy and physiology. Examples may include being new to online learning, time management issues, personal or family commitments, test anxiety, etc.
