also yes for family members who you expect to be hugging on your baby before it's been vaccinated
I had no idea this was a thing. No one has asked me if I was vaccinated being around their kid. Or even when my baby brother was born, or my nieces. I thought that’s why you vaccinated the kid.
I was vaccinated, I just opted out of the mRNA shot that didn’t work. And was not about to chase variants with boosters.
Oh okay yeah I’ve had my tetanus as an adult. If that’s what this is.

I didn't either until I had a kid

You do, but infants can't start getting those rounds of vaccines for a few months.

It may be difficult for some, but the standard vaccines people (children) have been getting for decades don't need to be met with the same type of scrutiny and doubt that the COVID vaccine did/does. Don't be that parent who won't vaccinate their kids because of hysteria they've read on the interent

Pertussis (whooping cough) portion of the Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and perrussis) starts to wear off after 5-7 years. Doctors usually recommend you get the shot to increase the whooping cough protection if it’s been greater than 5 years from your last Tdap.
