Charlotte lost her sister to measles. She has a hard time watching today's outbreaks.
Flu is the cause of so many doctor's visits every winter.

An apple a day might help you, but a flu shot will too.

Influenza is harder to get over if you’re pregnant. It’s extra important to get a flu shot if you’re expecting.

We love this little guy and his family. Like many ANE parents, they are such great advocates. ##vaccinessavelives #AcuteNecrotizingEncephalopathy

4 year old Beckett had the flu, and had to relearn his motor skills.

Please help us make sure he doesn't get it again 💉

Beckett’s body overreacts to common viruses like influenza. We’re a little anxious about this fall & winter.

Fact: the people who make ivermectin literally give it away, and have pledged to do so "for as long as needed" to eliminate parasitic diseases.

Look up Mectizan Donation Program. Mectizan is ivermectin.

No one was ever hiding this drug from us.

If you get a flu shot, you can get a donut after.

It's not free I just had two good ideas.

Last flu season my 9-year-old contracted flu and lost 10 pounds in the course of 2 weeks. Fortunately she never needed to be hospitalized, a miracle I attribute to her having had her flu vaccine. I'm so sad for Zach and other parents who are not so fortunate.

Zach lost his daughter to influenza. His wish is that your family doesn't underestimate the disease.

I lost my child to Flu. Trust me, you need a shot.
Once reality set in, I became angry and wanted some answers. I felt cheated of the opportunity to protect my daughter

When we talk about needing 'herd immunity' to disease, kids like Beckett are why.
October 19, 2025 at 8:46 PM
Beckett cannot protect himself from influenza or COVID.

His family needs your help this fall.

Beckett Wear could lose a lot if he gets flu again. He's one of many kids who can't fight it on their own, and need others to help out by vaccinating.

This organization does important work around a complication of vaccine-preventable disease, and has helped us share some stories about influenza.

You should follow them!
Neurological complications from #influenza - ANE is one that Doctors dread. It typically occurs in previously healthy children. ##vaccinessavelives #ANEawareness
Check our website for symptoms to be aware of. www.aneinternational.org
Influenza can cause or trigger a brain condition called ANE. Beckett experienced it last flu season.

With vaccines, we hope he doesn't have to again.

4 year old Beckett has a rare condition where viruses like flu can cause brain inflammation. His parents do all they can to protect him. If you get vaccinated, you're helping too.

CDC changed vaccine recs in 2019 for Tdap, so if your tetanus booster was before then you may not have gotten the "p" (whooping cough) part in a while...I learned from experience 😖
