Dr. Tony Moody Infectious Disease Specialist with Duke Health

The North Carolina Department of Human Services Kindergarten Immunization Dashboard reports 93% of kindergarteners statewide are up to date on required vaccines. However, the vaccination numbers in Durham County are lower compared to neighboring areas. Dr. Tony Moody, a pediatric infectious disease specialist who sees patients with Duke Health, said Durham County’s low numbers are surprising. Dr. Moody joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss the importance of vaccinations when school begins.
