As a pediatric immunologist, I get this question all the time “what did kids do before vaccines?” They died … by the millions. Parents in remote areas of the World walk days to vaccinate kids. Anti-VAxers display ignorance + fear + immense privilege and put us all at risk.

Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children against deadly childhood diseases. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone.

@RealPureLove For 1 one of those stories, I can tell 100 others of children who are not vaccinated and died before our eyes, despite all our advanced technology. I’m glad your child is doing better. #Vaccines save lives. As an allergist I see the reactions too. But the diseases are worse.

@mmforsmann You have to look it up because #vaccines have almost eradicated those illnesses . The refusal to vaccinate comes from the luxury of never having seen the disease and its epidemic state. We humans are terrible at assessing risk so if don’t see children dying think it’s safe

Did you know abdominal pain and /or hives, or full blown #anaphylaxis can be an acquired #foodallergy after tick bite called #AlphaGal ? Reaction can delayed by 8-14 hours so the food may not be suspected, especially since it may be dose dependent and not occur every time.

Dr. Hirano advocates EGD monitoring annually or after therapy change in Eosinophilic Esophagitis since Symptoms are unreliable indicator of disease severity. Histopathology is important determinant of disease outcome. #AAAAIWAO18

Can’t just hand them #peanut patch and see them twice a year. EPIT patients still need support education and close follow up during #foodallergy treatment. #ACAAI18

Very early onset #IBD rates rising worldwide (<6yo at diagnosis) could this be caused by dysregulation of gut #microbiome due to environmental changes? Gut inflammation can lead to #autoimmune pathway. #AAAAI23

#acaai23 @scott_commins reports some vaccine reactions may be #AlphGal #foodallergy to the #gelatin component of the vaccine or manufacture in mammalian cells. So if reaction to one these vaccines is suspected, testing for alpha-gal should be part of the evaluation.

#ACAAI23 Did you have a severe allergic reaction to insect sting? See allergist ASAP for blood or skin testing -these methods are complimentary- if you test negative to one you may need the other. Blood testing is 1 needle & fast but results take days.
