Bleeding Disorders in Women

Caregiving for Adults
The assistance provided by caregivers is instrumental to adults who wish to continue living in their homes and in the community,
and saves on costs to society. Thus, it is imperative that programs and policies be implemented to support caregivers and the people they care for.

family's health history and share it with your child's doctor.

Lead Hazards in Some Holiday Toys
Parents should be aware of potential lead hazards associated with some holiday toys and toy jewelry. Review these important facts to keep your loved ones safe this holiday season.

Managing Diabetes During the Holidays
Having diabetes shouldn't stop you from enjoying holiday celebrations and travel. With some planning and a little work,
you can stay healthy on the road and at holiday gatherings with friends and family.

Pregnant Women Need a Flu Shot!
If you're pregnant, a flu shot is your best protection against serious illness from the flu. A flu shot can protect pregnant women, their
unborn babies, and even their babies after birth.

Prevent the Spread of Norovirus
Noroviruses spread easily, causing more than 20 million gastroenteritis cases each year in the U.S. There's no vaccine to prevent norovirus infection and no drug to treat it. Wash your hands often and follow simple tips to stay virus-free.

Reported Tuberculosis in the United States, 2010
In 2010, the reported number of TB cases decreased slightly from the previous year. Yet, even though reported TB cases reached all-time lows
in the United States, there are still disproportionately higher rates of TB among racial/ethnic minorities.
