Ep. 35 - Flu Vaccine Update: Inefficacy and Double-Dose Shots for Babies?

from The Vaccine Conversation with Melissa and Dr. Bob · host Immunity Education Group

While flu season is wrapping up, policy-makers are already planning changes in how we vaccinate for next year’s flu season. One concerning change is the ACIP’s recommendation to give all babies the same dose we give adults, instead of the half-dose it’s always been. How will babies react? We also examine flu vaccine efficacy over the past two years and uncover some concerning findings that may surprise you. Sources: tinyurl.com/VaxConv
