cdc recommended vaccines for adults :: Article Creator CDC Urges Vaccination Amid Rise In Measles Cases In The US And Globally US health officials are warning doctors about the dramatic rise in measles cases around the world, and advising families traveling to a measles-affected country to get babies as young as 6 months vaccinated before they go. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a health alert to doctors on Monday to increase awareness of the international spread of measles, and urged them to vaccinate infants a few months ahead of the typical schedule if families are planning to go abroad. The warning comes ahead of the busy spring and summer travel season. Many countries, including Austria, Philippines, Romania and the United Kingdom–destinations frequented by American tourists–are experiencing measles outbreaks, the CDC noted. The CDC also warned about lagging vaccination rates in 36 US states where fewer than 95%

coordinated care :: Article Creator Union Workers Push For Health Care And Insurance Bills Following Coordinated Strikes After thousands of Twin Cities union workers went on strike last week, workers are pushing for changes at the Capitol — including public health insurance open to all Minnesotans and insurance for striking workers.  About 200 unionized health care, education and property service workers with the SEIU Minnesota State Council met with legislators Wednesday for an organized lobby day. "I would make the case that over the last few years here in Minnesota because of the leadership of SEIU and our allied partners, we have maybe made more progress than we have in a generation around workers and union rights," said Gov. Tim Walz, who gave a speech to rallying workers before they headed to St. Paul. Statewide labor unions, including the SEIU Minnesota State Council, have endorsed Walz.

tdap vaccine cost :: Article Creator CDC Tells Physicians To Conserve Tetanus Shots, Warns Of Upcoming Shortage The CDC is urging healthcare professionals to conserve their supply of the Td vaccine, a type of tetanus shot, in advance of an upcoming shortage. Doctors should administer the Tdap vaccine instead of the Td vaccine when possible to protect against tetanus. Experts say the widely available Tdap vaccine is the preferred tetanus shot since it also protects against whooping cough. If you've ever been to the emergency room to treat a serious wound, you probably received a tetanus shot. As the most commonly administered vaccine in the ER, tetanus shots are used to protect against tetanus, an infection caused by Clostridium tetani bacteria. However, health officials say a common type of tetanus vaccine may soon be in short supply. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is advising healthcare professionals to prese
