Update September 18th

We are seeing a little bit of everything.
Mostly the garden variety back to school illnesses abound.

There are lots of coughs, colds with fevers. Plenty of these have been turning into ear infections.

There are lots of kids with sore throats.
Less than half of these have been positive for strep.

There is a vomiting/ diarrhea illness that lasts for a couple of days..

There is active pertussis out there in the community.

I have had LOTS of head lice calls, Check those heads!

We have NOT seen positive tests for Influenza or RSV yet.

Remember that we do have our drop in FLU shot clinic on Saturday the 22nd from 9:30-12:30 here in the office. ( for our Noe Valley Pediatrics patients and families only)
Stay well, enjoy the last bits of summer
Judy
