On this week's episode of the pod, we are doing a respiratory illness season roundup because it is upon us! We kick things off with a discussion on COVID-19 and the newly updated vaccines (including mRNA vaccines and Novavax). We present some of the latest statistics on disease burden and the increase in cases. Next, we move on to flu and discuss how vaccines are updated annually and address some myths and misconceptions about flu vaccines. Finally, we move on to RSV and discuss the newly approved preventatives for infants and people over 60+ years. We walk through the different options and eligibility. We hope you'll tune in and learn a thing or two!
