Fresh off the press: CDC’s forecast of the upcoming respiratory season ✅Covid: Moderate season ✅Flu: Normal season ✅RSV: Normal All eyes on healthcare systems. (We should be doing more than crossing our fingers and saying a prayer that these don’t peak at the same time).

New data from the Barouch Lab on BA.2.86. 1. NAb responses to BA.2.86 were lower than to BA.2 but were comparable or higher than to current circulating variants. 2. NAb titers to all variants including BA.2.86 increased following XBB infection

Using the word ‘surge’ for recent Covid seems unhelpful to me. The increase is real, but tiny in both proportion and absolute numbers compared with others over the last few years. I think it’s misleading to use the same term for this and eg delta, BA.1 or BA.2. Don’t devalue it

Flu can be wild. But a flu vaccine can shield both you and your cub from flu’s more serious symptoms. Ask your OB/GYN about a flu shot to protect you and your baby after birth — when they’re too young to be vaccinated. More: bit.ly/47eVnJc #FightFlu
