## Resource

Doctors nationwide are sounding the alarm as preventable diseases like whooping cough and rotavirus are surging — diseases once kept in check by childhood vaccines. With measles making a comeback and vaccine hesitancy fueled by the pandemic, community immunity is weakening. One Alabama doctor reports record hospitalizations for rotavirus in unvaccinated kids, while others see infants suffering severe complications from whooping cough. Even basic vaccines like vitamin K are being skipped, leading to tragic outcomes. Experts warn this is a dangerous slide backward — and without swift action, more preventable diseases could follow, putting the most vulnerable at risk.
