Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common virus that infects people of all ages and is not harmful to most people. CMV spreads from person to person through bodily fluids.

Sometimes a pregnant woman will pass CMV to her baby during pregnancy. This is called congenital CMV (cCMV). cCMV can cause serious health problems like damage to the baby's brain, eyes, and hearing.

Visit our website to learn more about cCMV: https://hhs.iowa.gov/health-prevention/birth-maternal-care/congenital-inherited-disorders/iowa-newborn-screening-program/iowa-newborn-screening-education/congenital-cytomegalovirus-ccmv

We’re so excited for the warm, sunny months! ☀️As you and your family start enjoying the sun and spending more time outside, we want to remind you about the importance of sun protection! 🧴

Here are some helpful tips to keep your little ones safe in the sun this summer:

🌴Instead of sunscreen, keep babies 6 months and under in shaded areas and use sun-protective clothing items to protect their skin.
👒Utilize sun-protection accessories like sunhats and sunglasses.
🧴Use baby-safe sunscreens with mineral filters to prevent skin irritation.
🏖️Reapply! Make sure you take breaks in outdoor play to reset and reapply sunscreen, especially after swimming
