Today is a day to remember the importance of standing up to and fighting fascism and white supremacy in all the ways we can and importantly when it shows up at your front door. I’m forever in debt to those who led the fight in our community 9 years ago - at great impact to them personally.

Asking for all the pediatricians I know - Congressman John McGuire do you want to stand between families and their doctors? Shouldn’t parents and families have the choice about their medical care including vaccines? Doesn’t sound like common sense or freedom to me.

You know what pediatricians don’t have time for in the last few days before school starts as we hustle to fill out every form known to man and give checks ups to ALL the kids- some more anti vaccine bullshit. Let us protect kids and communities as we are trained to do 😡 The end.

18 years in & I’VE NEVER seen a vat of vaccine. Please stop interfering with pediatricians’ ability to keep kids & communities safe. “Large amounts — like vats — of vaccine are currently pumped into your child’s body,” Trump said in the Oval Office, flanked by Health Secretary RFK Jr

Trump demands major changes to childhood vaccine recommendations
The president signed an order advising states to revise their rules. He also called for narrowing which vaccines are administered to children and splitting shots into multiple appointments.

Thursday update shows ongoing increase in measles cases in the Buckingham outbreak. Good news —- it has not spread outside of the Piedmont health District. However, the BRHD shares multiple borders w/buckingham so we remain on alert and recommend early vaccination for babies and toddlers.
Cases up to 91 for the year. Current Buckingham cages up to 69 for the year.

If you’ve been thinking about giving a donation to a food bank, this is an awesome time of year to do it! When kids are out of school for the summer, those who rely on schools for meals, often find themselves without enough food for the entire family.
