Middle aged Asian male with black hair very straight. He has a somber expression behind a pink KN95 mask. He is standing in front of a Helmet I series vaccine fridge. It is blue with a glass door and an LCD status panel.

If you're worried about vaccine availability moving forward talk to your pediatricians. While there is a routine schedule, there is flexibility.
For example Gardasil is usually given at 11 but can be dosed as early as 9.
MMR is given at 12 and 48 months but dose 2 can be given earlier.

On a day like this, it’s important to say THANK YOU to all the science and public health communicators for all you do. Your work will be even more critical in the coming years. Keep going! You are very much needed and appreciated. ❤️

Could This Be the End of PEPFAR? Short email from a longtime colleague, working in Africa at a PEPFAR site: Without USAID, PEPFAR is essentially dead. I got chills reading this. PEPFAR, the abbreviation for the President’s Emergency ...

After hearing from two of my colleagues in Africa who work with USAID/PEPFAR, and the consequences already of recent events, I had to write this.

So sad. And so pointless! #IDSky

Global health partnerships are essential for tackling antimicrobial resistance Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is recognised as one of the most significant global threats to public health. In 2021, it was estimated that there were 4.7 million deaths associated with bacterial AMR,...

Global health partnerships help combat AMR by strengthening antimicrobial stewardship and education, as seen in a Zambia-UK collaboration training pharmacy champions and improving prescribing practices.

Vaccines have saved millions of lives.  This is a historical fact.  Denying it is completely absurd.
