There’s a lot of scary information online about vaccines and their ingredients, but vaccines keep kids healthy. Kids who aren’t sick are able to go to school, play with friends and thrive in their communities.

And while the internet doesn’t always have your best interests at heart, pediatricians do. If you have any questions about vaccines, don’t hesitate to reach out to your pediatrician.

The MMR and MMRV vaccines help children build immunity against serious diseases. While the MMR vaccine protects against measles, mumps and rubella, MMRV is a combination vaccine that provides additional immunity for varicella (or chickenpox).
Both vaccines are critical for keeping these vaccine-preventable diseases at bay. Talk with your pediatrician to make the most informed decision for your children.

We are heartbroken by the shocking acts of gun violence that occurred yesterday, which reverberate through our communities and are witnessed by children – in more ways than we often realize.

On September 11th, which happened 24 years ago today, we learned how repeated footage of tragedy affects children. On 9/11, children couldn’t escape the TV footage of planes crashing and buildings falling. Now, graphic videos of shootings circulate on social media, exposing kids to violence they aren’t ready to see. Children shouldn’t carry the weight of the world’s tragedies on their screens.

Parenting through these moments is scary and overwhelming, but parents can help support children by checking in, limiting exposure, and offering comfort and safety. And as pediatricians, AAP remains deeply committed to advocating for gun violence prevention and its lasting impact on young people.

💉 Why Your Newborn Needs a Vitamin K Shot
When babies are born, their vitamin K levels are naturally very low—putting them at risk for dangerous bleeding problems (VKDB). Just one safe shot given in the first hours of life protects your baby from serious complications like brain bleeding. 🌟

Talk to your pediatrician if you have questions—the vitamin K shot has been safely recommended for newborns since 1961. 🍼❤️

It’s a busy time of year for parents as kids go back to school. While ensuring they have everything on their school supply list, don’t forget one of the most important ways to set your child up for success: making sure they’re up to date on their vaccinations.
When your child’s body develops lasting immunity, they stay healthy and can play, learn, and grow. Vaccines keep their friends at school healthy, too. Because when more kids have immunity, it’s harder for contagious diseases to spread. Talk with your pediatrician if you have any questions about the American Academy of Pediatrics’ recommended vaccine schedule.

If you have questions about vaccines, or other health topics in the news, have a conversation with your pediatrician at your next visit. They care about your child and your family, and they've been with you every step of the way.
