Kids are getting sick with the common cold and croup as schools and daycares go mask optional, according to pediatricians.
CHICAGO -- Runny noses, colds, croups and other common illnesses are making a comeback as most schools and daycares become mask optional.
Dr. Julie Holland is the Vice President of Pediatric Primary Care for Chicagoland Children's Health alliance. "We are seeing a few outbreaks of strep but it's not huge," said Holland."What we are not seeing is COVID, fortunately. And what we are not seeing is influenza, that season is hopefully over for the year.""Another great way to keep your kids healthy is to get them vaccinated - not just for the COVID vaccine but for the regular childhood things like Whooping Cough, Polio and Measles," said Holland.
