Measles vaccines are one of the best buys in public health, but not everyone has access to them. Explore interactive maps of recent outbreaks and learn more about the vaccine's impact in @ShotAtLife's "Fight Against Measles" tool: shotatlife.org/measlesmap

📷 Celebrate #AIAW23 with a new episode of @UnityConsortium’s FACTSinnated podcast! Listen with us as we hear from @drpauloffit on the importance of adolescent and young adult voices in conversations about their health. Listen at 11:00 a.m. CT: unity4teenvax.org/factsinnated/

Most of us will get human papillomavirus (HPV) at some point, often without symptoms. HPV can cause cervical, anal, head and neck cancer, and more. The #hpvvaccine protects against 90% of HPV-related cancers. #hpvawarenessday canceriowa.news/hpv-awareness-…

Iowans: Take action to ensure adolescents continue to receive reliable information about HPV and the vaccine that can prevent infection! secure.everyaction.com/oTsBRxO8ak2bL0…

My latest video blog is my thoughts on the #CovidVaccine. Why do we vaccinate our livestock & not ourselves? A #PSA with help from experts like @iowaimmunizes @KizzyPhD @ZDoggMD @nataliexdean & more. Think of each other this holiday season. #publichealth youtu.be/y8wr0j9U3PA

The antibodies you make after getting a vaccine are just as natural as any other antibodies you make. Calling it “artificial immunity” is like calling a treadmill run “artificial cardio.”

I cannot tell you how much of a joy it was to talk with @ChelseaClinton for the Vax Talk pod, and the episode is up! We cover everything from global vaccine efforts, to disinformation, to reaching the vaccine hesitant regardless of political affiliation. voicesforvaccines.org/its-chelsea-cl…

This is happening in Iowa. @PedsGeekMD leads the grassroots pro-Vax advocacy group @iowaimmunizes. This, plus @IowaChapterAAP advocacy, is the best way to combat misinformation and support #publichealth. #ThisIsOurShot #VaccinesSaveLives
