UW Health notes ‘troubling’ drop in routine childhood vaccinations

Dr. Jim Conway, a UW Health infectious disease pediatrician and medical director of the immunization program, says the drop is “troubling.” “As people gather more and travel more, unvaccinated children are at risk of being exposed to more than just COVID-19, and without vaccines they are at risk of contracting dangerous but preventable diseases,” said Dr. Conway.
