Friday = VaxFacts!

💉This week, the last week of National Immunization Awareness Month, we highlight the importance of pertussis immunizations for family members and friends to protect infants from whooping cough.

👶🏼 Babies can’t receive their dose of DTap until they’re at least 2 months old. This time unprotected leaves them vulnerable to pertussis infections that can be life threatening.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 To keep newborns safe, parents, grandparents and other close contacts should receive appropriate pertussis boosters.

👩🏻‍⚕️Thank you to Petrea Cober for sharing how her experiences in practice impacted immunization decisions for her and her family.

As always, if you have questions about what vaccines are right for you or your loved one, talk to your pharmacist or primary care provider!

🚨This Friday’s VaxFacts is an important announcement from our the PPA President, Kim Novak, and the PPA President and the Immunization Committee.🚨

📃The recently released executive order (EO) by the White House on Childhood Vaccine Recommendations does not align with PPA’s core values in public health.

💉The evidence on vaccines remains safe and effective.

💡PPA members can take action by continuing to engage with patients, families/caregivers, and the community regarding immunizations.

👋🏽Welcome back to Friday VaxFacts! This week we’re talking HPV Vaccines.

📊Current recommendations are for a multi-dose series, but emerging evidence shows that one dose may provide sufficient coverage.

💉Single-dose regimens would provide benefits for both patients and health systems, including improved ease of access and decreased costs.

🔗Check out our references and learn more by scanning the QR codes on each slide.

🧑‍⚕️As always, if you have questions or concerns about immunizations for yourself or a family member, talk to your pharmacist or primary care provider!
