COVID-19 cases are still high, so be sure to know the facts and avoid the myths in order to protect yourself and others.

Today’s update on COVID-19 vaccines is that there really is no update yet, but we haven’t forgotten about you. We’ll be back for more updates as soon as we’re allowed to get started (or before then, if it takes a while).

There is, and always will be, lots of misinformation about vaccines for kids, but the facts have not changed: Vaccines are safe and save millions of lives. Getting your child vaccinated protects them from preventable deaths and disability and protects the people around them.

We hope to see you all🎨🖌️
