This image and article is about a measles outbreak real going on in Indonesia: more than 2,000 cases. 17 deaths.
(16/17 unvaccinated)

Arizona/Utah: now up to 24 +8 =32 cases in a mostly unvaccinated fundamentalist community of Colorado City. The kindergartens in these areas report 7-40% MMR vaccination rate.

Do we really want to see what happens when vaccine rates drop in larger cities?????

Indonesian authorities have rolled out a vaccination campaign in response to an outbreak that has caused 17 deaths.

Flu SHOTs only for the drive-thru, no flu mist.

Our in-office flu clinics will be all day on Tuesday, September 23 and Thursday, October 2nd, between 9 am-4 pm.
We can give flu shots or Flu mist in the office, in addition to any other vaccines your child may need.

You must call to book an appointment for any of the clinics above. Kids can also get their flu vaccine during regular well-child visits between September and December.

We are happy to share information, but cannot give specific medical advice here.

Just because a political figure says something, does not mean it’s TRUE! Between 2020 and 2022, there WERE healthy kids who caught COVID and died( not as many as older adults, but not ZERO) if you want your kid to get a Covid vaccine, talk to your doctor about it. Please don’t take medical advice from Politicians. Yes, Rand Paul is a senator and a doctor, he was a board certified ophthalmologist from 1995-2005.

Roxbury Pediatrics is NOT a provider in the Blue Shield TANDEM network. If your Blue Shield card says TANDEM or CALPERS, you may need to switch.
