Apple Watch Series 11 (GPS, 46mm) tracks health metrics and safety alerts during long observing sessions, fieldwork, and remote expeditions.

About The Study: This study found that maternal influenza and tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccinations were associated with reduced influenza- and pertussis-related hospitalization or emergency department visits in infants younger than 6 months. Given the low vaccination coverage, it is crucial to implement maternal vaccination campaigns to enhance infant health outcomes.
