The #AAFP joins the AMA and other physician organizations in opposing immigration enforcement interference in health care facilities. We stand in full support of our family physicians and their colleagues in communities across Minnesota working to ensure that all patients have access to safe, confidential care from a trusted health care professional.
Jan 26
"The AMA is deeply concerned by reports of immigration enforcement activity in and around hospitals and emergency rooms – a tactic fueling fear among patients and hospital staff alike. When people are afraid to seek medical attention for themselves or their families, it threatens their health, impedes the ability of physicians to render care, and ultimately undermines basic trust in our health care institutions."

"For most family physicians, our commitment to providing hepatitis B vaccination to newborns remains the same today as it was before the CDC’s ACIP voted last week to change a longstanding recommendation."

CAFP supports the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's recommendation to continue universal hepatitis B vaccination for newborns. Read CDPHE's press release. cdphe.colorado.gov/press-rel…
23
Removing the universal recommendation for Hepatitis B vaccination could result in thousands of chronic HepB infections, leading to severe complications like liver cancer and death. The AAFP strongly supports maintaining universal HepB vaccination at birth, and we call on @CDCgov to ensure this safety net continues to protect newborns and life-saving protection remains the standard of care.
