🦠 Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that can cause serious respiratory illness, especially in young children.

❄️ It spreads like a cold, through contact with infected saliva or mucus, and usually peaks from late fall 🍁 through early spring 🌼.

πŸ‘‡ Who is at risk?πŸ‘‡

πŸ‘Ά Infants.

πŸ§’ High-risk children under 2 years old.

❓How can you protect your child❓

🀰 If you're pregnant, receiving the RSV vaccine between 32–36 weeks can help protect your baby from RSV after birth. This means your baby may not need an additional immunization after they're born!

πŸ’‰ For infants under 6 months who didn’t receive this protection in pregnancy, an immunization called nirsevimab (Beyfortus) can help protect them.

πŸŽ‰ This immunization has been shown to reduce RSV-related hospitalizations and healthcare visits by 80% in infants.

πŸ‘‡ When to get it?πŸ‘‡

🩺 The immunization can be given with or between your baby’s routine shots. Talk to your healthcare provider about whether your child needs RSV protection.

πŸ₯ RSV is the leading cause of hospitalization in infants under 1 year old. Keep your baby safe this winterβ€”ask us about RSV immunization today!
