Did you know that the battle against RSV, a significant yet often overlooked respiratory virus, has recently seen groundbreaking advancements? Just a few months ago, the first-ever RSV vaccine was approved for individuals aged 60 and over, marking a monumental step in public health. Additionally, a new vaccine now offers protection for the most vulnerable among us - our babies. Ultimately, this will affect each and every one of us.
Despite its severity, RSV remained largely under the radar until the COVID-19 pandemic brought it to the forefront as part of the “tripledemic” of COVID, Flu and RSV. As a scientist and doctor specializing in respiratory health, in this video, I try to shed light on RSV and these new vaccines…and hopefully convince you that this is a really big deal! So…let's get into it.

What is The Feed with Dr. G?
“Science provides the knowledge we need to improve our health - but it’s also science’s job to make sure that knowledge is accessible to everyone.” - Dr. Samir Gupta
Nothing matters more than our health. And science is the key to understanding and maximizing our health and wellness. Yet new studies are reported in the news every day, and it seems impossible to keep up and figure out what’s important. At the same time, science is too often presented in a traditional style that’s unnecessarily complex and hard to understand.
As both a doctor and a scientist, my mission is to find fresh approaches to make science clear, transparent, and easy to understand (=obvious!) - for everyone. In our digital world, The Feed is built to keep people engaged and informed about the latest topics and newest science in health and medicine and to empower them to separate fact from fiction.
