Description

It’s a new school year, and there’s a new problem facing D.C. Schools. A staggering amount of kids aren’t vaccinated. And we’re not just talking about COVID, we mean routine ones like MMR and polio. DCist’s Colleen Grablick walks us through why this happened and how schools are responding.

D.C. Health has a map of locations broken down by ward for where to get your child vaccinated.

City Cast is the daily, local audio companion you knew DC needed. Washingtonians are gritty, proud, and resilient — necessary qualities for a community facing issues that range from an affordability crisis to the fight for statehood to the movement for racial justice… and useful qualities for a region full of whip-smart people, dynamic culture, and constant change. Washingtonians are deeply passionate about our city, whose story is still being written, and City Cast DC is here to tell it. Every weekday morning, our hosts Michael Schaffer and Bridget Todd will engage people from all over the eight wards in conversation about DC’s crises and its beauty, both literal and figurative. It’ll have the feel of eavesdropping on an energetic and informative coffee shop chat, except that with City Cast DC, consider this your official invitation to listen in.
