The Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation has earned the Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval.
Nirsivimab is an injection for infants under 8 months and Alaska Native infants under 20 months that provides direct antibodies which fight respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections.
A recent study at YKHC showed that over 80% of babies who received the shot had a significant reduction in illness from RSV and over 90% effective in preventing hospitalization due to severe RSV.
Call your local health clinic to schedule your appointment today, or in Bethel, call 907-543-6442.
