In this episode of The Birth Lounge podcast, HeHe sits down with Dr. Alok Patel, a board-certified pediatrician and national medical contributor for ABC News, to have the real talk about vaccines—no fear, no judgment, just facts and empowerment. Together, they unpack the difference between vaccine hesitancy and being anti-vaccine, why open conversations matter, and how parents can confidently navigate their child's health choices. Dr. Patel breaks down what you actually need to know about vaccine schedules, ingredients like aluminum and thimerosal, and the incredible public health wins that vaccines have created. They also dive into hot topics like the RSV vaccine, the “tripledemic,” and how misinformation spreads faster than the truth (and what you can do about it). Plus, HeHe unveils her brand new course—Pushing Out Your Big Ass Baby—to help you shut down “big baby” scare tactics and advocate like the badass parent you are. This episode is packed with clarity, confidence, and evidence-based insight so you can make informed choices for your family—without the fear. 00:00 Introduction and Vaccine Hesitancy 01:00 The Myth of the 'Big Baby' 03:15 Introducing the New Course: Pushing Out Your Big Ass Baby 05:21 Vaccination Conversations: Should I or Shouldn't I? 06:57 Meet Dr. Alok Patel: Pediatrician and Media Contributor 11:26 The Science Behind Vaccination Schedules 16:36 COVID-19 Vaccine Controversies and Communication Issues 26:41 Global Vaccination Comparisons and Herd Immunity 43:39 Natural Immunity vs. Vaccination 46:45 The Impact of RSV on Children 49:20 The Triple Demic: Flu, RSV, and COVID 50:52 Healthcare System Strain During the Pandemic 51:49 Personal Trauma from COVID-19 57:17 The Importance of Accessible Healthcare Information 01:00:54 Ethical Considerations in Vaccine Studies 01:17:41 Addressing Vaccine Ingredients Concerns 01:23:24 Final Thoughts and Resources Guest Bio: Dr. Patel is a board-certified pediatrician on faculty at Stanford Children's Health where he works as a pediatric hospitalist, taking care of everything from premature babies to adults and running into all sorts of medical conditions from the routine to bizarre to outright rare.

RSV 22 It was the feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem; 23 it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered round him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me;

Featuring articles on severe acute malnutrition with gastroenteritis in children, medical imaging and pediatric cancer risk, moderate hypertriglyceridemia, preventing RSV disease in healthy infants, and treating hypertension in rural South Africa; a review article on monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance; a Clinical Problem-Solving on a shifting frame; and Perspectives on insight into corporate governance, on pharmaceutical tariffs, and on OUD medications.
A new meta-analysis in HeartRhythm found that SGLT2 inhibitors reduced sudden cardiac death risk by about 18% across patients with type 2 diabetes, heart failure, or chronic kidney disease, with consistent effects and minimal trial variation. A Cochrane review of over 100,000 participants showed RSV vaccines are highly effective and safe: protein-based shots cut severe lower respiratory infections in older adults by ~75% and protected infants when given to pregnant mothers, halving RSV-related care and hospitalizations. Finally, WHO and EMA reaffirmed acetaminophen's safety in pregnancy, rejecting suggested links to autism or neurodevelopmental harm, noting decades of safe use and the risks of untreated pain or fever.
“Vaccine counseling is really a team sport. — Dr. Anne Pham-HuyVaccines can stir anxiety for patients and confusion for clinicians, especially when biologics enter the mix. Dr. Mariam Hanna is joined by Dr. Anne Pham-Huy, clinical immunologist at CHEO, member of the Special Immunization Clinic Network, NACI member, and chair of Immunize Canada. Together, they break down the science of vaccine responses and tackle some of the trickiest questions allergists face in daily practice.On this episode:The major types of vaccines — from live attenuated to mRNA — and what sets them apart.Why live vaccines often produce strong, durable protection, but may require caution in certain patients.How adult immunization is still underutilized, with gaps in boosters, pneumococcal, HPV, and influenza coverage.Which “special populations” need tailored vaccine strategies, including patients on immunosuppressants, transplant recipients, and those with chronic disease.Practical guidance on timing vaccines around biologic use and which precautions truly matter.When to check titers and antibody responses — and why it's only relevant for select patient groups.Strategies for counselling vaccine-hesitant patients with empathy, focusing on disease risk and building trust.What's next: combination mRNA vaccines and nirsevimab for RSV prevention in infants.The questions are simple — are they vaccinated, special, or special enough — but the answers matter.Visit the Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical ImmunologyFind an allergist using our helpful toolFind Dr. Hanna on X, previously Twitter, @PedsAllergyDoc or CSACI @CSACI_caThe Allergist is produced for CSACI by PodCraft Productions

Samantha Rux from OSF HealthCare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about flu vaccines and future flu clinics. As fall draws near, health officials are reminding the public that timely vaccinations are key to preventing illness. Families should arrange vaccine appointments for their children, as school-based flu clinics in Kewanee will not be held this year. Adults are also encouraged to keep current with vaccines such as the flu, COVID-19, RSV, and others like hepatitis B and shingles. These shots offer vital protection, especially for older adults, pregnant women, and those with underlying health issues. Talk to your provider about updating immunizations to keep yourself and your community healthy.
RSV 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 He who is a hireling and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
