So, what steps can you be taking?

Avoid people who are sick

Cover your mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing

Wash your hands

Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth

Disinfect frequently touched surfaces

Above all, the single best way to prevent the flu is to get vaccinated.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend getting vaccinated every year against the flu, but did you know that there are several types of flu vaccines to choose from? Better yet, there is a needle-free nasal spray flu vaccine available to eligible patients 2-49 years of age.

Dr. Ravi Jhaveri, Division Head, Infectious Disease; Virginia H. Rogers Professor in Infectious Diseases and Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases), Northwestern University School of Medicine, will be available to discuss ways to prepare for this year’s flu season including the various types of flu vaccines available.

Listen to “THE U.S. ARMY RESERVE CELEBRATES THE CIVIL AFFAIRS REGIMENT’S 68TH ANNIVERSARY AS THE “EYES & EARS” TO CIVIL ORGANIZATIONS ” on Spreaker.

Focusing On Army Reserve Civil Affairs with Colonel Bradford Hughes, Government Functional Specialty Chief of the 351st Civil Affairs Command.

Website for more information: www.usar.army.mil

The Army Civil Affairs Regiment helps military commanders and staff work with local authorities and populations while also assisting and supporting the civil administration of a unit’s area of operations. This month the Army Reserve is saluting Soldiers in honor of the Civil Affairs Regiment’s 68th anniversary.

Established on August 17, 1955, the Civil Affairs Regiment has served as the “eyes and ears” to foreign military and civil organizations. These Soldiers engage and partner with communities around the world, to increase stability, enable local governments, and improve quality of life for civilians.

This regiment’s work extends beyond humanitarian assistance as Civil Affairs Soldiers are the Special Operations community’s warrior-diplomats. As persuasive and diplomatic negotiators, Civil Affairs Soldiers work on the ground to ensure the U.S. interests are on the table and have a strong position when bargaining with foreign governments. They also protect civilians and reduce the root causes of instability around the world.

Oxygen deprivation in utero resulted in Kenny being born deaf with partial blindness, partial paralysis on his left side, and an inability to speak clearly until the age of 10. Kenny also suffers cognitive impairment, similar to the fictional character Forrest Gump, which gives him the same child-like innocence and leads to the same sort of hilarious misunderstandings and malaprops that made Gump both lovable and entertaining.
Kenny’s life could easily have been nothing but a depressingly sullen tale of victimhood. Instead, it turned out to be one filled with a unique combination of joy, humor, friendship, heartbreak, accomplishment, faith, and peace.
From his time spent with Kenny, Paul Smith will talk about:
• Being A Storyteller
• His unique relationship with Kenny
• Meeting Kenny and what inspired him to write this book
Praise for FOUR DAYS WITH KENNY TEDFORD
“Kenny is definitely a hero that everyone needs. Please have a sequel! This book will change your life as it did mine!”
– Miles Barbee, acclaimed Broadway and screen Dea actor and star of The Silent Natural
“A touching and sensitively crafted account of a differently-abled and extraordinarily gifted storyteller. The collaborative oral autobiography is a fine piece of work, and it is a pleasure to spend days in its company.”
– Joseph Sobol, Ph.D., Director, George Ewart Evans Centre for Storytelling, University of South Wales
“Authentic, compelling, and poignant…profound life lessons from an unlikely and extraordinary person!”
– Sandy Cohen, Tennessee Director of the Library Services for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing
“You cannot help but see how a simple thing in life can be both magnifying and amusing…whenever you have a tough day, simply think about Kenny…he will nudge your conscience with a cornucopia of his personal and humorous stories.”
– Peter Cook, internationally renowned Deaf performing artist
“In a current society where labels seem to carry a lot of weight, it is enlightening to see how one man disregards the labels assigned to him by others (including his family and friends). On his journey to success, Kenny Tedford has triumphed by focusing on his strengths and abilities. A must-read for anyone wanting to learn how to see the person (and not the label).”
– Libby Tipton, certified sign language interpreter, and president, Jonesborough Storytellers Guild

PUZZLING SKIN CONDITION AFFECTS MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
THE HIDDEN REALITY OF LIVING WITH A CHRONIC SKIN DISEASE

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an under-recognized and chronic inflammatory skin condition caused by an overactive immune system that can often go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for years. The symptoms of HS include recurrent, painful abscesses and lesions and can have a significant physical, mental and social impact. HS can be progressive and increase in severity over time.

HS also presents itself in sensitive areas like the armpits, groin and under the breasts and buttocks, so it may be hidden by clothing – leaving many to suffer in silence. Further, the lack of awareness around this disease may lead to patients going undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for seven or more years. Patients may visit a number of doctors before finding a dermatologist with experience in managing HS to confirm diagnosis and determine a plan that best fits their specific needs.

Dr. Joslyn Kirby, a dermatologist with Penn State University, will bring greater understanding about HS by sharing how it’s more than just an inflammatory skin disease. Dr. Kirby will also discuss the importance for HS patients – along with their caregivers – to advocate for their care and seek out a dermatologist with experience treating HS who can help patients to receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment options.

A New Study Reveals How to Fill a Vital Gap In Infant Gut Health
New research is showing that a specific probiotic bacteria is key to restoring a baby’s gut to its protective, natural state and providing a foundation for life-long optimal health.
When babies are born they begin to acquire a collection of bacteria called the microbiome –trillions of microorganisms that co-exist in our bodies and live all over us, on our skin, nose, mouth, eyes and gastrointestinal tract, or gut. Research shows that the infant gut microbiome plays a critical role in healthy immune and metabolic development, as well as meeting babies’ dietary needs.
The bacteria in a baby’s microbiome are passed down from their mom at birth. For generations, one strain called B. infantis dominated the infant gut. However, modern medical practices such as increased antibiotic use and C-sections have led to a microbial imbalance in the infant gut and a loss of this key bacteria. This imbalance has been associated with a range of chronic health issues including allergies, asthma, obesity, type 1 diabetes and a host of immunological disorders.
Now, recently published data shows for the first time that supplementation with activated B. infantis can completely transform the gut environment in babies that are fed breast milk. Along with restoring a healthy gut microbiome, the study results show that the supplementation significantly reduced levels of potentially harmful bacteria linked to disease in infants born either through natural or C-section delivery.
Mark Underwood, M.D., Chief Pediatric Neonatologist at UC Davis discussed the study results and explain how the activated form of this beneficial bacteria can be helpful for babies and about other ways to encourage the health of infants.

“We subsist now on a meager vocabulary of winners and “losers,” of “sad!” naysayers and “nut job” adversaries. We’re asked to see an absence of eloquence as the presence of authenticity. But that’s bunk. Words, like monuments, matter.”
