There's good news on the Covid front with new CDC guidelines this week for those who have had a vaccine, plus Texas has dropped the age access starting Monday, March 15. Steve Love and Thomas Miller discuss the latest in Segment 1.
Then, we tackle a difficult topic that has come up this past year - childhood hypertension. As we have been less active, staying at home more, and eating more, even our kids are starting to exhibit signs that normally would appear in adulthood. Alan Sing, M.D., from Children's Health joins us to talk about the health of our kids.
Another area that is important to note is something that appears on the other end of the timeline of life: Shingles. Childhood chickenpox can lead to Shingles after age 50, in most cases, but it can be prevented with a vaccination. Kishorbhai Gangani, M.D., Internal Medicine at Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital, joins us with a full explanation of Shingles.
