Measles
We have been getting many questions about measles, the measles outbreak, and the MMR vaccine. Currently there are no measles cases in Rhode Island and we would like to keep it that way! The MMR vaccine is very effective at protecting people from catching measles. Children between 1 and 4 should have received 1 dose of the vaccine (typically given at the 12 month well visit) and children over 4 should have received a second dose of the vaccine (usually given at the 4 year well visit). Please also see the links below for the CDC information and also the link to a podcast from Dr. Mike at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

The pediatricians at East Greenwich Pediatrics recommend a yearly flu vaccine for all patients age 6 months and older. We will be holding our usual flu vaccine clinics for our patients, but this year for kids age 2 and older they will be outside! How fun! For further information and dates please see our website. If your child has an appointment before November 1st they will be able to get it at their check-up. To reduce exposure in the office, we are still asking that only one parent and no siblings come to check up appointments. If siblings need flu vaccines please bring them to the clinics! If you have a child age 6 months to 2 years or requires special assistance, please call the office to schedule a flu vaccine. Thank you all for helping us keep RI healthy. https://eastgreenwichpediatrics.com/flu/
