AMA statement on CDC changes to website on autism and vaccines: http://spr.ly/61887iC34

AAP President Dr. Susan J. Kressly responds to the recent changes on the CDC’s website - “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website has been changed to promote false information suggesting vaccines cause autism. Since 1998, independent researchers across seven countries have conducted more than 40 high-quality studies involving over 5.6 million people. The conclusion is clear and unambiguous: There’s no link between vaccines and autism. Anyone repeating this harmful myth is misinformed or intentionally trying to mislead parents.

We call on the CDC to stop wasting government resources to amplify false claims that sow doubt in one of the best tools we have to keep children healthy and thriving: routine immunizations. The American Academy of Pediatrics stands with members of the autism community who have asked for support in stopping this rumor from spreading any further."

Flu season has begun and there are signs that this year's influenza strains are producing particularly severe symptoms.
We strongly recommend that everyone age 6 months and older receive their seasonal flu vaccine as soon as possible. Flu vaccine reduces the risk of getting the flu, but even more importantly, strongly reduces the risk of becoming severely ill or dying from influenza.

Seasonal influenza activity is low.
