8/ It's me 🧕🏽😷
Hi 👋🏽
I am this #Pediatrician ➡️👩🏽‍⚕️
recommending vaccines 💉
bc #CovidIsNotOver 🚫🦠
It's me!

#VaccinesSaveLives #MaskUp #IVax2Protect

#vaccines provide an important layer of protection to help people everywhere esp with airborne diseases.

We all have to breathe!

#vaccines & #masks make society safer for people who are most at risk of serious illness & even "healthy" ones as we learn more about long-term #LongCovid risks

we can all help protect each other

3/ my friend and colleague (and her kids!) took a break from their break to tell us why they vaccinate as a #Pediatrician family

vaccinating within a family protects other family members who might be too young to get immunizations or whose immune systems are compromised, creating walls of protection to prevent spread of communicable diseases

A #Pediatrician asked #terminal #kids what they enjoyed about life. Here are their answers.

I wish #doctors #websites would stop using those stupid #signature boxes where you need to use the mouse to sign your name. I’m #left-handed but I use a #right-handed #mouse (that’s how I was taught) and it’s a real pain in the ass to try to sign my name with the mouse. I just had to sign like that about 15 times for a #developmental #pediatrician. You’d think they’d know better. Just let me type in my damned name, for fuck sake. I have zero patience for this stuff. #autism #adhd

Then there are the days when you work from your bed with the napping sick kid next to you because you are worried about their breathing. #pediatrician appt this afternoon. Poor kid has been feeling like poo since Friday. It’s days like today that show the necessity of having #flexiblework environments. If families are going to fully participate in life, the environment must support them doing so.

Many kids missed out on #RoutineVaccines during the #pandemic. Make sure your preteen isn’t one of them!

Preteen #vaccines protect against serious diseases, even cancer.

Talk to your child's #pediatrician today! #PreteenVaccineWeek

On my #subway ride a Black high schooler noticed my 🩺 and asked "are you a doctor?" Not yet, but studying to be one, I said. She wants to be a #pediatrician, but NO ONE in her family has even finished high school. So I gave her my email, and her smile was priceless.

Catching up on #climatechange news in #NYS after some busy time in the hospital on service.

Very pleased to read about the governor's signing of the Cumulative Impacts Bill, an important step forward for #climatejustice #environmentaljustice in #NYC and the state.

As a #pediatrician in the Bronx, I can attest to the impact of heavy #pollution on #childhealth.

@luckytran As one of the 'hold-outs', I continue to wear a mask because I am a frontline #pediatrician who treats sick #children. #COVID19 is still here, affecting people of all ages. #BeSafe #WearAMask #vaccinate

Sometimes I need an exorcist!
(Just kidding of course ! 😂😂😂)

#Pediatrician

Very excited to read about the #healthbenefits from this #climatelegislation, and from a #pediatrician's perspective, this is a big #environmentaljustice #climatejustice win, especially for #childhealth in our communities.

However, much work remains to be done & more legislation needs to be passed - such as the #NYS Climate, Justice, and Jobs Package being supported by #NYRenews. Climate legislation is public health legislation.

#pediatrics #climatechange #climateadvocacy #publichealth

Bivalent #COVID boosters are approved for ages 6 mos and up.

Please check with your #pediatrician or clinic to ensure your littlest ones are up to date!

Thank you! 😷💉

I'm looking for a good book on #ADHD and how it affects behavior for a pre-teen audience. Anybody in my #MedMastodon crew, or my #Pediatrician peeps or #Neurodivergent folk have some recommendations? I should mention it's intended as a #Christmas gift, so there is some time pressure.
