From Healthy Children:

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently added misleading claims to its autism webpage. We want to be clear: decades of high-quality, large-scale studies show that vaccines do not cause autism. "Parents deserve peace of mind. Decades of rigorous research have shown vaccines do not cause autism," said Dr. Susan Kressly, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics. "Vaccines are one of the safest and most effective ways to protect children’s health and help them thrive."

The American Academy of Pediatrics stands with members of the autism community who have asked for support in stopping this rumor from spreading any further.

Dr. Jenie Ferrer, Dr. Emily Remus, and Dr. Ann Tannous recently attended a Northern Virginia Pediatric Society educational presentation by Dr. Vahe Badalyan on Celiac Disease. Dr. Badalyan is a pediatric gastroenterologist who runs the Celiac Disease Program at Children’s National.

Did you know…
👉 Celiac disease is more common in kids with Type 1 Diabetes or autoimmune thyroid disease, as well as in kids with a family history of celiac.
👉 Common symptoms include abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation, anemia, and poor growth - although some kids with celiac have no symptoms.
👉 Celiac screening is done with a blood test. Kids with a positive screening test may need a biopsy to be diagnosed.
👉 Celiac is treated with a gluten-free diet.

📚Learn more about celiac disease here: https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/abdominal/Pages/Celiac-Disease.aspx
