Some individuals wrongly assert there is a link between vaccines and autism. Before the claim was discredited, researchers took it seriously, investigated it thoroughly, and found no link. This research, in many countries, involving thousands of individuals, has spanned multiple decades. Any effort to misrepresent sound, strong science poses a threat to the health of children and does a disservice to the autistic community.

Immunizations are important to help children stay healthy, so they can learn, grow and thrive. If parents have questions about vaccines or autism, we encourage them to talk to their child’s pediatrician. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4nI0Rnb

Today’s White House event on autism was filled with dangerous claims and misleading information that sends a confusing message to parents and expecting parents and does a disservice to autistic individuals.

We know autism is complex, highly variable and increasingly linked to genetics. Individualized plans, often involving a combination of developmental, behavioral, educational and social-relational strategies, can help improve outcomes that are meaningful to individuals and families. We also need and welcome additional investments in federally funded research to better support families of autistic children.

Families who have questions about their child’s medications, autism care plans or other health care should consult with their pediatrician or health care provider.

Should you (or your kids) get a flu vaccine? Here's Dr. Roy's take!

BTW, here's a reference to the seat belt statistics -- interesting, the overall effectiveness for seat belts to prevent severe injury is about the same as the effectiveness of a flu vaccine to prevent serious cases of flu! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30594164/

Emory had been helping about 60% of their undergrads with need-based aid. Now it's 80%, with many students tuition-free -- and this is in addition to merit scholarships and GA programs to help w/ room/board, etc. Some good news!

Launching in fall 2026, Emory Advantage Plus is a major expansion of the university’s longstanding commitment to making a preeminent education more attainable for talented students.

COVID vaccine update! It's ... confusing. Dr. Roy tries to give you a coherent update on what's been a chaotic process.
