User:Bangalamania, here are a few fairly readily consultable selections that I made based on this GoogleScholar search (I got as far as the bottom of the third page, and there are about 7 more pages you might like to consult).
Goldenberg, Maya J. (2016). "Public Misunderstanding of Science? Reframing the Problem of Vaccine Hesitancy". Perspectives on Science. 24 (5): 552–581. doi:10.1162/POSC_a_00223. ISSN1063-6145. (Quote: The National Vaccine Information Center in the United States and the British group JABS (Justice Awareness and Basic Support) are strongly reproached for playing an instrumental role in misinforming the public, misdirecting health resources, engendering spurious controversy, and facilitating declining vaccination rates to levels below those needed for “herd immunity” in some regions by way of their emotional pleas (Fitzpatrick 2004c, 2004d; Offit 2011).)
