We are absolutely swamped with sick kids this week.
Last week the winning phone calls belonged to the "tummy bug"
Today it is all about the respiratory illnesses.
There are loads of coughs/ colds/ wheeziness and fevers.
I do think that RSV is making the rounds

We are seeing lots of croupy kids as well.
We also had our first positive Flu test!
It feels awfully early for that, but so it goes.
The patients symptoms presented with a few days of congestion that turned into wheezing.
If you haven't gotten your shot yet, we will be doing another Saturday flu shot clinic on November 9th.
9am until noon.
No appointment needed.
This is for the patients and families of Noe Valley pediatrics only.
We have both the flu mist and shots available.
Stay well!
