@healthtruecare @NACHC Way to represent, ladies!

Does anyone know how to directly donate clothing, children's toys, etc to Afghan refugees in San Diego? #AfghanRefugees #donate

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

@aspelina88 @AmyGDalaMD Good question and I'm not familiar with the details of the under 12yo clinical trails for the COVID vaccine but we generally don't weight base vaccines. Tdap is the same for all 10 year olds for example. Maybe someone in the know can comment @PeterHotez 🙂

@BetaMomma Venous draw 😀

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

@BetaMomma We send the samples to an outside lab for processing, usually Quest. We don't have a POCT. I suspect a POCT is more expensive than sending it out to the lab.

Informative update for parents with children under 12 years of age! #kidscovid #CovidVaccine

@sensationssalud @FarmtoForkSD Wow! Would love to find out what you do with it! 🙂

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

Great interview with our AAP president! Where do you find the time @AAPPres?? #CovidVaccine

[Mark Del Monte, JD @AAPDelMonte]

Good advice from the president of the @AmerAcadPeds as a pediatrician and parent. Please listen and RT!

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

Parents out there! Get the #CovidVaccine. Having unvaccinated kids going back to in person learning, especially those in preschool and unable to consistently wear masks, puts you at risk of getting covid. #ThisIsOurShot

As a health professional, I've gotten used to wearing my #MaskUp at work and actually prefer to keep it going even after things improve. We see so many sick kids, why not? Wondering what my clinic colleagues think about that? 🤔 #StopTheSpread

In a recent AAP town hall on #COVID19 it was noted that our vaccines fair well against the current variants. I'm hoping this holds true for these.

[Eric Feigl-Ding @DrEricDing]

The new “double mutation” variant from India 🇮🇳 #B1617 is surging fast in UK—5x increase in % of #COVID19 cases in just 2 weeks. Same with the South Africa 🇿🇦 #B1351 variant. When did they increase? After schools reopened.

And keep in mind—it’s rising despite high vaccinations.

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

More kids going back to in person learning means more potential for #Covid19 spread to children and their families. Jobs interrupted, hospitalizations, potential lives lost. If you're on the fence, we have #COVIDVaccines, get yours to save yourself & those around you.

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

There's been an uptick in COVID cases in children in San Diego. Early 2022 can't come soon enough! Eagerly awaiting the approval for vaccinating those 6 months and older! #CovidVaccine #tweediatrician

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

Here's my conversation starter for parents on getting the COVID vaccine. Protecting yourself is protecting others. What's your starter?? #AAPAdvocacy2021 #IGOTTHESHOT

[Alison Zachry, MD, FAAP @MdZachry]

@DrKatDuncan @AmerAcadPeds Very nice!
