As a parent, chances are you’ve seen it or have even worn it on your shirt: spit-up.
Our teams are so grateful for the outpouring of messages of support and gratitude from the community, recognizing our part in responding to the tragedy at the Waukesha Christmas Parade. It means a lot individually and collectively.
Sadly, we have also seen some inaccurate stories floating around regarding our response. Out of respect to the families and community, we had hoped these stories would go away on their own, but unfortunately that does not seem to be happening.
While we won’t link to any of these articles, we want to directly address accusations that are simply wrong.
We pride ourselves on being a resource to this community and being transparent to those we serve. Our weekly pediatric COVID-19 trend report has shared information regarding COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses in kids, as well as updates on our vaccination requirement. And we provided almost daily updates on the conditions of the kids injured at the Waukesha parade who were in our care. We are disappointed that the accusations made are contrary to the truth and contradict how our community has come together in so many ways to support the families impacted by this situation.
For more than 125 years, Children’s Wisconsin has existed to provide the highest-level care for all kids in Wisconsin. This is a responsibility core to our founding and one that everyone at Children’s Wisconsin takes to heart, no matter their role. Our hearts continue to ache for the victims and their families of the Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy.
