DPH Notice: RSV Immunizations for Infants
The Wisconsin Department of Public Health (DPH) is issuing an urgent notice for providers to know about RSV immunization options for infants and young children.
We encourage you to please share the following resources with your clinical staff:

- Infant RSV Immunization, P-03654A (PDF) This flyer provides information on administering nirsevimab to infants and young children.
- RSV Vaccination for Pregnant Persons, P-03654 (PDF) This flyer provides information on maternal vaccination for pregnant people, which provides protection for the newborn.
Thank you for providing high quality care to our youngest members.
