I was asked recently, what the biggest improvement in critical care that has occurred in my career: without hesitation, it has been vaccines. Varicella, HIB, Meningococcus type B, COVID-19, rotavirus and now RSV, on top of the previous ones. Diseases that used to cause so much death. #PedsICU

Damn it - THIS is why we developed a vaccine for this highly contagious and potentially devastating disease.

As awful as this looks…it’s even more frightening when they’re on a ventilator and do this. The advice a few years ago for pregnant women to get vaccinated was a great move.
Antivaxers want to see what life is like without vaccines. I got you.

Whooping Cough in an infant.

96% of all whooping cough deaths occur in infants.

But no, do you...

A reminder that the improvements that we’ve seen in life expectancy over the centuries are largely driven by preventing infants and children from dying. If you survived past childhood, you probably were going to live to 60.
