- News
Last month Covid-19 vaccines were approved for children as young as six months old. For many parents this news brought relief, and for others continued concern.
For this episode we’re going to hear from Dr. Mishelle Nace, a pediatrician in Fairbanks, Alaska who also works as a staff physician for the state health department.
ATMI senior producer Quinn White spoke with Dr. Nace about the vaccine now being available for young children, concerns parents have had, and how disinformation around Covid vaccines has affected the overall culture of pediatric care.
They spoke on July 12th, 2022.
Hosted by Nikki.
Music by Devin Shreckengost and Kendrick Whiteman.
