It's #ScienceAppreciationDay! Immunize Colorado board member Angie is grateful for the science of vaccines because they help keep her daughter -- and those around her -- protected from diseases that might mean hospitalization or worse. Why do you appreciate science?

Today is 3/17 -- a great day to tell Congress to increase funding for Section 317! Section 317 is a federal program that supports public health programming across the U.S., including providing free vaccines to uninsured adults and responding to disease outbreaks.

🚨 A judge blocked RFK Jr.'s recent changes to the childhood vaccine schedule. The changes, not based on scientific evidence, sowed distrust and confusion for families. The ruling reinforces the importance of making public health decisions with data, not misinformation.

It's Monday! Time to tackle more vaccine misinformation. You may have heard the claim that vaccines can lead to an autism diagnosis in children. Scientists have studied this question for decades and have found the same answer: no, vaccines do NOT cause autism.

Research shows that negative outcomes are not more likely for those who received a Tdap during pregnancy than those who didn't. Whooping cough is dangerous for new babies. Before the vaccine, 9,000 babies died from it each year. Tdap vaccination during pregnancy is essential!

Pediatricians, on the other hand, chose their demanding profession because they care deeply about children and families. They overwhelmingly support vaccines. So whenever you have vaccine questions, turn to your pediatrician for answers. 🩺 #ColoradoChoosesVaccines
