Great discussion with Marc Siegel MD today! Our latest research suggests that #COVID19 in pregnancy can cause serious problems for both mom & baby. But the good news is that getting your vaccine (or the latest booster) can help keep you safe. gh.bmj.com/content/8/1/e0…

New in JAMA Pediatrics: A summary of 17 studies with nearly 11 million vaccinated kids ages 5-11 shows COVID-19 vaccines are effective at reducing infection and severe consequences with rare adverse events. A major work showing safety and efficacy. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…

#COVID19 can cause severe and occasionally fatal disease in all age groups. Given the amount of information currently available to parents, the decision to vaccinate their children should be an easy one. -Paul Offit jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…

Great to see Emily R Smith, ScD MPH and Erin Oakley's work on test-to-treat disparities on a ZIP code level now published in American Journal of Preventive Medicine (AJPM). As we move past the public health emergency, ensuring continued access to treatments in these areas should be a priority. ajpmonline.org/article/S0749-…

Excited to share a new paper today with Brian McGarry and Ashvin Gandhi published today in NEJM TL;DR Nursing homes with higher use of COVID-19 tests for staff had 30% fewer resident cases and 26% fewer deaths than low testing facilities. That's a LOT. /1 nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

A moment for reflection, for remembering those we’ve lost, for gratitude to the many who helped us get here, and for a renewed commitment for improving health globally. 🖤
