Measles is making a comeback, and parents have questions. In this episode of 2 PNPs Talk Vaccines, Dr. Alexa D. Thompson and Dr. Stacy Buchanan discuss the rise in measles cases across the United States and what families need to know to protect their children.
We discuss how measles spreads, common symptoms, potential complications, the importance of the MMR vaccine, and misinformation about vaccine safety. We also discuss how measles outbreaks can affect families, schools, and communities.
Join us for another real vaccine conversation as we share our experiences as pediatric nurse practitioners and provide information to help parents make informed decisions about their children's health.
