I (mostly) work with Streptococcus pneumoniae, also called pneumococcus, the most common bacterial cause of pneumonia. Pneumococcal disease is difficult to prevent, for lots of reasons, but I'll pick a few big ones: 🔷There are over 100 subtypes, or serotypes, of pneumococcus 💯 🔷 Currently licensed vaccines cover up to 20 serotypes 💉 🔷 Vaccines are effective 👍 but expensive 👎 #WorldPneumoniaDay

With the recent rise in cases of MPOX, it's crucial that, as providers, we familiarize ourselves with this infectious disease and the latest CDC guidelines. MPOX, also known as Modified Parapoxvirus Infection, is a contagious viral infection that primarily affects young people. By reading up on MPOX and understanding its transmission, symptoms, and recommended preventive measures, we can better educate our patients and mitigate the spread of the virus. As trusted advisors, we have the opportunity to recommend vaccinations to our patients in accordance with CDC recommendations. Let's prioritize the health and safety of our patients by staying informed about MPOX and recommending vaccines to those at risk.
