Over the past nine months, those of us in the pediatric community have experienced a profound erosion of confidence in the CDC and its current commitment to genuine, evidence-based science. For many years, the CDC has served as a trusted and invaluable resource, guiding us in the care and management of children’s health across a wide range of conditions.

We are deeply grateful to the American Academy of Pediatrics for stepping forward to provide clear, evidence-based guidelines that enable us to continue protecting the health and safety of infants and children during these uncertain times. https://www.healthychildren.org/English/safety-prevention/immunizations/Pages/vaccine-studies-examine-the-evidence.aspx?_gl=1%2A1q38p88%2A_ga%2AMzEzODA3NDk0LjE2NTI5OTcxOTA.%2A_ga_FD9D3XZVQQ%2AczE3NjA3MjExNDEkbzI0JGcxJHQxNzYwNzIxMjUxJGoyNCRsMCRoMA..&fbclid=IwdGRleANiYidleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHrL3VtlPfsJ677Hu1oy_YgSpeYjYAIZi77EaEzLTnh5uMTU9IfIRTyJT3VI-_aem_6hvVfWusRa54aC1nv6KKHw
