I chat with Conal Harpur all about ADHD. We discuss the merits of diagnosis and its role in supporting both children and adults.

With ADHD being so widely recognised on social media and with more and more well known faces disclosing diagnosis I wanted to chat about how that diagnosis is given, where is best to get it, and what benefits it offers.

Comprehensive Guide to the New RSV Immunisation for Parents

In this detailed episode, I provide an in-depth exploration of the new RSV immunisation, focusing on its importance, safety, and effectiveness. The discussion covers the basics and risks of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), the introduction and benefits of the Nirsevimab vaccine, and potential side effects. The episode compares Nirsevimab with the older Palivizumab, highlighting its superior efficacy in reducing hospitalisations and ICU admissions. It also addresses eligibility guidelines, the vaccination process, accessibility through government programs, and specific advice for parents, especially those with infants born from September 1st. I reassures parents with real-world success stories, clarify misconceptions, and provide practical tips on preventing RSV through hygiene. The episode aims to equip parents with reliable information to protect their children effectively.
