As of October 1st, we are offering the RSV monoclonal antibody immunization (Beyfortus) to all infants from birth to 8 months of age. The immunization gives your baby the antibodies they lack while their immune system is maturing and has been shown to reduce both Emergency Department visits, and hospitalizations due to RSV, by over 80%. The immunization can be given at your child’s routine well visit and should provide protection for 5 months after given. If you have any questions about whether the immunization would be appropriate for your child, please call us at

610-376-8691 and our nurses will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Be well & stay healthy!

Thank you.
