Listen "CDC panel recommends changes to Hepatitis B vaccine guidance for newborns"
Episode Synopsis
On Friday, December 5th, the CDC's vaccine advisory committee voted to rescind a recommendation that has stood for more than 30 years: that newborns be vaccinated against Hepatits B on the day of their birth. The move has outraged and concerned many in the public health community, saying it's an irresponsible decision that will lead to harm. KSL NewsRadio's Heather Peterson joins Maria Shilaos to explain the changes and how Utah physicians are reacting. She also shares parts of her conversation with Dr. David Cope, a family medicine physician with the Ogden Clinic in Bountiful.
