Vitamin K Shot for Newborns: Did RFK Jr. Get It Wrong?

Did you know that skipping the vitamin K shot for newborns can lead to catastrophic brain bleeds, and even death? The vitamin K shot has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics since the 1960s, yet more parents are refusing it, and misinformation is putting babies at serious risk.

You want to protect your baby. Giving your newborn the vitamin K shot is exactly how you do that. Watch the full video now.
