RSV isn’t something to leave to chance. A seasonal vaccine can help protect infants, pregnant people, and older adults from severe illness.

It’s National Influenza Vaccination Week and a reminder that it’s not too late to protect your family. The flu vaccine helps prevent serious illness, especially in young children. #NIVW #fluseason acponline.org/acp-newsroom/i…

National Influenza Vaccination Week is here! Flu can be serious for infants, children, and families but prevention is powerful. The best protection is the annual flu vaccine, recommended by the AAP for everyone 6 months and older. #VaccinesWork #NIVW

Today, ACIP will meet again to potentially vote on changes to the U.S. childhood immunization schedule, including a proposal that could remove or delay the birth-dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine for most newborns.

During National Influenza Vaccination Week, we’re reminding families that flu season runs from fall through spring and the best way to stay protected is with the annual flu vaccine! Protect your family by asking your pediatrician about getting the vaccine. #NIVW #FluSeason
