I’m Dr. William Schaffner, a professor of preventive medicine and an infectious disease expert. I’m here to answer your questions about preventing pneumococcal disease -- a contagious bacterial infection that can cause everything from mild ear infections to pneumonia or meningitis. We can also talk about how to handle it if you get one of these conditions. Ask me anything!
