Research by headline is not the same as critically reviewing the data. When I’m reviewing a study, I start with a few questions to see if it actually has helpful info for me or my patients:
1. What is the question they are trying to answer?
2. Who did they study?
3. Are the results generalizable or realistic?

When you start to look closely, you’ll notice that a lot of disinformation out there claims studies show something they were never designed to show.
Also, scientists love to talk about their work! We need the media to talk to them even if there isn’t a super catchy title.

Nuance is hard. Things can evolve. One thing that hasn’t changed is that pediatricians remain willing to talk things through with their patients. As routine childhood vaccination rates drop, risk of the diseases increases. As newer germs continue to evolve, we learn more and more in real time- again changing risk.

This is a real gov’t website.

Forgotten diseases are back and devastating lives
Food recalls are daily events
Children are being detained in detention facilities
Families can pay for their basic needs anymore…
…so let’s play a game.

Reminder that there is actual data to support playing real Tetris after traumatic events as a way to lessen ptsd and trauma flashbacks.

The math isn’t mathing.
They are just making up numbers.
Children will pay the price.
My condolences to the families of those who are hospitalized due to infections and to those who have lost loved ones to the disease. We know you exist.
We can do better.
Vaccinate Your Family

RIP Dolly Parton
In addition to bringing joy to millions through her music, she was a champion for child health. It feels like we are putting up with an awful lot of rain lately, but we’ll get there. We will always love you Dolly!

TW: infant death
We need to talk about babies and safe sleep. Unsafe infant sleep is different than SIDS, though the things that reduce their occurrence are similar. Unsafe sleep deaths are suffocations, even a sheet across a baby’s face can obstruct their breathing. Unsafe sleep deaths can be prevented and there is more we can do to help support new parents to lessen the likelihood of tragedy.
