Recent changes to vaccine recommendations are creating unnecessary confusion for families and providers. When decades-old policies change without new safety data, it undermines the stability that pediatricians and parents rely on. www.healthline.com/health-news/...

Great to see this work be published, it has been such a wonderful opportunity to be involved with the #IMPACC network - these important findings re immune response to #COVID will be useful for future pandemics especially for vulnerable populations @ast-idcop.bsky.social @niaidnews.bsky.social

Excellent read from @danielleofri.bsky.social on the reality for clinicians as NIH, CDC, FDA recs are put under political controls: “Medical professionals can no longer fully trust federal health guidance, and our patients are the ones who will suffer the most.” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/o...
