Flu and Covid-19 vaccines, RSV injections available

Dear Marblehead Families,

Thanks again to all of our patients and families who came to the drive-through flu vaccine clinic. It was another successful year for us to help protect your children’s health. If you were not able to make it, we will continue to have influenza vaccines throughout the flu season for all our patients 6+ months of age or older.

The newest 2025-2026 Covid-19 vaccine is also available at our office. This booster is available for all patients age 6+ months to 18 years of age. Please note that if you are 19+ years of age, we have not been allocated Covid-19 vaccines that can be used for your young adult. Please consider utilizing your local CVS or Walgreen’s pharmacy.

Finally, many families have been hearing about the RSV injection called Beyfortus for infants age 0-8 months of age. If you haven’t heard, a link to the John’s Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health which is an excellent summary for the topic can be found here.

Call us at 781-631-7800 if you have any interest in scheduling these today.

We have moved to Epic

Dear Marblehead Pediatrics Families,

As of 2/27/2025, we have implemented our new electronic medical record system to Mass General Hospital’s version of Epic. While in the long run, this will help modernize our workflows and provide better integrated care for our families, there is a learning curve for us as a office to utilize all of its tools. We apologize during the next month for the limited number of available appointments or any technology related issues that may arise. Thank you for bearing with us and we look forward to the transformative impact the new electronic medical record system will have on patient care and efficiency.

Beyfortus (RSV) Injections Available

Dear Marblehead Pediatrics Families,

We have received and been administering Beyforus injections to help protect our infants against Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). 2 in 3 children by age 1 will have contracted RSV and Beyfortus is used to help prevent a serious lung disease caused by Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) called bronchiolitis. Not everyone is eliglble or needs an RSV injection but if you had interest in it, please call us to schedule an appointment.

This injection is generally only recommended for infants less than 8 months of age. Certain patients with high risk lung conditions such as cystic fibrosis may be eligible to receive this beyond 8 months of age. An infant was born to a mother who received the Pfizer RSV vaccine called Abrysvo between 32-36 weeks of prengancy and at least 2 weeks before delivery will have antibodies against RSV and also do not need this injection. RSV injections are done only during RSV season (October - March)
