Ohio AAP knows many pediatricians and their practices are struggling with plummeting vaccine rates. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, parents may be delaying or skipping their child’s wellness visits which results in children missing important and routine vaccinations. Maintaining immunization schedules is always important, but especially true during COVID, as vaccines will help prevent other vaccine-preventable outbreaks and will lessen unnecessary burdens on the healthcare system.
Ohio AAP is here to help with our just released podcast, Let’s Talk Vax: Boosting Pediatric Immunization Rates. Hosted by Ohio AAP Board Member, Dr. Denise Warrick, and joined by Ohio AAP President-Elect Dr. Chris Peltier, Dr. Nicole Baldwin and Dr. Robert Frenck, who all gathered for a robust discussion on boosting immunization rates! Join these pediatric healthcare experts for a discussion on how to impact immunization rates, “catch-up” on well care visits, and hear an update on the COVID-19 vaccine trials in Cincinnati.
