Respiratory syncytial virus is common, but it can be dangerous for some infants and young kids. Hear more from experts, including Dr. Christy Sadreameli (Christy Sadreameli or @pedlungdoc on bsky), about everything caregivers need to know. ➡️ bit.ly/4lEWIiR #RSV #PedsPulmonology #KidsHealth

But none of this is true: outside of annual flu vaccines it’s closer to 30 immunizations, all or most tested in placebo-controlled trials. We’ve gone from immunizing kids vs 8 diseases when I was a resident in the 1980s, to 16, including 4 for bacterial meningitis, 2 for cancer
