This free workshop is for new and expectant parents with babies less than 1 years of age and will help you cut through the noise and better understand RSV and its implications for infants.

The “cold and flu” season is challenging for all of us! Children under 2 years of age, especially infants and those who were born prematurely or are medically fragile (congenital heart disease, chronic lung disease or specific respiratory or immune conditions) are at significantly increased risk of being admitted to the hospital should they become ill.

The presentations will address the risks of RSV and learn more about Beyfortus, a new RSV protection option for babies.
