Icymi- My latest post looks at early childhood infections
There’s some infections you simply can’t avoid

It baffles me to see RFK Jr continuing to chip away vaccine access while cases of vaccine-preventable diseases continue to increase. There are so many other things that he can focus on that would make America healthier.

#Medsky #IDsky #pedsky #publichealth Maternal #SARSCoV2 infection during pregnancy is associated with altered immune profiles in newborns, primarily through the transplacental transfer of IgG antibodies.
It's a @nfidvaccines.bsky.social double feature later this month with webinars about measles and HPV.
#MedSky + #PedSky + #IDSky - also need to get these speakers to move to @bsky.app.
We get it: parents of #newborns are especially vigilant, & often request urgent consultss on the weird, transient ‘#rashes’ on their baby skin. Fortunately, the nearly all of these cases are benign--a ‘tincture of time’ resolves the issue. Reassurance is a must, but we must listen too. #pedsky
For all that my young patients mention an interest in medicine for a career...quite a few are horrified to think of the prospect of always learning-past when schooling ends. (And, some docs feel that way, too...I actually like it).
