.png "Who needs the RSV vaccine this year?")
Have you received the RSV vaccine yet? RSV is a potentially serious virus that can cause common cold symptoms, upper respiratory infections, or lower respiratory infections like pneumonia. Last year, the CDC recommended the RSV vaccine for infants, young children, and all adults aged 60 and older. This year, the guidance has changed. Now, the RSV vaccine is recommended for infants, young children, everyone aged 75 and older, and people aged 60 to 74 who are at higher risk for severe RSV, such as those with lung or heart disease or those living in nursing homes. If you’re an adult under 75 and not at increased risk, you can skip the shot for now. This update follows concerns about the vaccine’s rare association with Guillain-Barre syndrome, a condition that can cause paralysis.

ReplyDeleteYou are welcome.
Delete...since I'm over the age of 75, I received a RSV shot last fall and I will get the seasonal flu and Covid buster.
ReplyDeleteI am not yet 70, and though my husband is not in good health his dr. did not want to make him take the shot. He has had his shingles shot, pneumonia, and not sure what else. We stopped on the Covid boosters when the 3 shot put me past going for a day and he felt bad, too. I cannot afford to get down because of what I have to do.
ReplyDeleteI really appreciate you sharing this information! I know it will help a lot of people!
ReplyDeletethe creation of beauty is art.
We must take care of ourselves, because health is the most important thing!
ReplyDeleteMelody, I salute you!
Here we call it the “flu vaccine”, I believe it is something similar. We take it every year, this year I already took my dose :)

I do. My doc insists it is as important, if not more so, than the flu or Covid. Of course, I have compromised lungs so I will get them all.
ReplyDeleteThis was super helpful! I haven't taken my shot yet. It usually happens around August till January for us, which explains why I've been getting sick and catching colds randomly lately. Definitely a good reminder to check in on what's best for our health! x

this post has some great information in it. i always follow my doctor's guidance when it comes to vaccines...and of course, i do my homework as well!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know there was a RSV vaccine, I have had my flu shot
ReplyDeleteThis is good information to know. Thankfully I do not fall within the risk categories, so I won't need one this year, but I do think I will encourage my mother to get one since she does.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this very interesting information. Much appreciated! I have not long ago had the flu shot but will ask about this the next time I go to see my doctor.
ReplyDeleteI didn't take it, maybe I should check with my doctor.
ReplyDeleteeu tomei a vacina da gripe q liberaram pra toda a população de são paulo. beijos, pedrita
ReplyDeleteI’ve been seeing commercials about the vaccine. I know my grandkids have received the shot, but it looks like I can wait a while because I’m not close to 75🤓
