RSV is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections in babies worldwide, killing an estimated 13,000 infants younger than seven months old every year. Zangrilli was one of 7300 pregnant people in 18 countries who participated in the clinical vaccine trial led by Pfizer.
Zangrilli, a member of the Cherokee Nation, was born in Sacramento, California. Zangrilli has several years of professional healthcare experience and a personal interest in the evolution of science, which was part of her motivation to participate in the maternal RSV vaccine trial. A self-proclaimed “open book,” Zangrilli currently works as the Children’s Hospital Colorado Psychology Training Program Operations Coordinator.

Help us defend tribal sovereignty.
At Native News Online, our mission is rooted in telling the stories that strengthen sovereignty and uplift Indigenous voices — not just at year’s end, but every single day.
Because of your generosity last year, we were able to keep our reporters on the ground in tribal communities, at national gatherings and in the halls of Congress — covering the issues that matter most to Indian Country: sovereignty, culture, education, health and economic opportunity.
That support sustained us through a tough year in 2025. Now, as we look to the year ahead, we need your help right now to ensure warrior journalism remains strong — reporting that defends tribal sovereignty, amplifies Native truth, and holds power accountable.
The stakes couldn't be higher. Your support keeps Native voices heard, Native stories told and Native sovereignty defended.
Stand with Warrior Journalism today.
