REMAINING FLU CLINICS AVAILABLE:

Annual influenza vaccination for people aged 6 months and older is an important way to reduce the risk of influenza and its potentially serious complications that can result in hospitalization and death. CDC ‘s clinical recommendation for the 2025-26 annual influenza vaccination is that all persons aged 6 months and older who do not have contraindications receive a dose this year. Per NJ law, anyone 6months up to 5 years old will need a flu shot to attend daycare or preschool starting January 1, 2026 or be excluded from daycare/school.

CAUTION: ByHeart Whole Nutrition Infant Formula Recall

Do not use any ByHeart Whole Nutrition infant formula. This includes formula sold in cans and single serve packets.

What to do:

If possible, take a picture or record the lot number and best by date.

If you have leftover ByHeart powdered formula, label it "DO NOT USE" and keep it stored in a safe place for at least a month.

If your infant develops symptoms of infant botulism, your state health department may want to collect it for testing. If no symptoms appear after a month, throw the leftover formula away.



Monitor for symptoms of botulism such as poor feeding, loss of head control, difficulty swallowing, or decreased facial expression, seek medical care immediately if symptoms appear. Early intervention is critical.

Wash items and surfaces that may have touched the formula using hot soapy water or a dishwasher.
