Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

Today's ACIP meeting is usually a time where experts come together to inform the future of vaccines. That is not what today will be. That is not what we can stand behind. The AAP will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule -- just as we have since the 1930s

Hepatitis B can be passed from parent to baby at birth - and when that happens, the consequences can be deadly. It is unscientific and dangerous to intentionally ignore the success of U.S. vaccination programs or argue that the U.S. should not vaccinate babies for hepatitis B at birth.

An update from Dr. Sean O’Leary on this morning’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meeting:

Thimerosal is a preservative found in some flu vaccines. False information and faulty “science” about thimerosal are frequently used to mislead parents in an attempt to scare them out of vaccinating their children.

This week's ACIP meeting was full of the same intentionally misleading fearmongering that causes vaccine hesitancy. Children and families deserve better — public health information grounded in science.

The worrying over the cost of eggs and gas should never be more than the cost of your civility and humanity…
