DYK? If you’ve recently had a respiratory illness, you should still stay up to date with your vaccines.

Getting vaccinated for these illnesses supports your immune system once your antibodies start to wane from when you were sick.

Make sure you are fully recovered from your illness before you make an appointment. Remember that you might still be able to spread the germs that caused your illness, even after you start to feel better.

For COVID-19, you may consider waiting up to 3 months after infection to receive your vaccine dose. Talk to your doctor to see what’s right for you.

The FDA and CDC are investigating an outbreak of infant botulism cases that may be linked to ByHeart infant formula. ByHeart recalled all their formula products sold nationwide on Tuesday morning. If your family has one of the recalled formula cans at home, stop using the formula and monitor your infant for signs of botulism, including constipation, difficulty feeding, poor head control and trouble swallowing. The vast majority of baby formula is safe, and the recall affects a small percentage of families who rely on formula.

They become more independent, with their own personality and interests, although parents are still very important.
