“Being able to deliver an oral vaccine during hibernation could be a game changer in our ability to combat one of the deadliest wildlife diseases in modern times.”
Researchers are one step closer to reducing white-nose syndrome in bats. It’s a deadly disease which is spreading rapidly and for which there is no cure. Learn more here: https://on.doi.gov/2LkgcgE

The bacterium B. burgdorferi is the cause of #Lyme disease, also known as borreliosis, which is transmitted to people through the bite of infected blacklegged #ticks. Typical symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue, and a characteristic skin rash called erythema migrans. If left untreated, #infection can spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system. Lyme #disease is diagnosed based on symptoms, physical findings (e.g., rash), and the possibility of exposure to infected ticks. Laboratory testing is helpful if used correctly and performed with validated methods. Most cases of Lyme disease can be treated successfully with a few weeks of antibiotics. Steps to prevent Lyme disease include using insect repellent, removing ticks promptly, applying pesticides, and reducing tick habitat. The ticks that transmit Lyme disease can occasionally transmit other tickborne diseases as well. Learn more: https://www.cdc.gov/lyme/
Under a magnification of 158X, this photomicrograph of a tissue sample, processed using a Warthin-Starry stain, shows Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria. These bacteria are known as spirochetes (arrowheads) due to their corkscrew shape. : CDC Public Health Image Library (phil.cdc.gov). #UndertheLens #biology #science #CDC #PublicHealth
Now that it is May, it’s #cysticfibrosisawarenessmonth!!!
.
If you have wondered where the “salty” came from in my Instagram, it’s actually because I was born with cystic fibrosis! Back in the 50’s the way to tell if a child had CF was quite literally to lick them and if they tasted salty that was a sign they could have Cystic Fibrosis.
.
Throughout this month I’ll be making post explaining what CF is, how it affects the body, and most of all what it is like living a life with a chronic illness. CF is an invisible illness, meaning when you look at me from the outside you would never guess I had it. Spreading awareness about invisible illnesses not only brings awareness, education, and understanding, but it opens peoples eyes to the struggles that some people fight everyday behind the illusion of normalcy. it’s my hope that through that awareness we can make the works a kinder more understanding place ❤️
.
I hope you follow along on my posts this month, ask questions you have, and help me spread awareness of CF so that soon CF will stand for Cure Found

What comes to mind when you think of the color green Probably trees and plants right #DYK, that the color green is associated with the heart #chakra Green vegetables contain high levels of fiber, iron, magnesium, potassium and calcium. This causes them to be extremely #heardhealthy. To aid the healing process eat leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, dandelion greens, broccoli, cabbage, celery. Green teas also keep the heart chakra in healthy condition, and spice it up with basil, thyme, cilantro. Why heal the heart chakra you may ask… The heart chakra is the energy centre from which we radiate love, joy, happiness and compassion. It is the chakra that connects the lower chakras to the higher chakras and is vital in our journey towards self healing and development. So, if you want to radiate pure #love and #compassion, make sure to eat you greens!! Happy #Saturday everyone Much love and lots of blessings ✨

Down's Syndrome
A genetic chromosome 21 disorder causing developmental and intellectual delays.
People who inherit an unbalanced translocation involving chromosome 21 may have extra genetic material from chromosome 21, which causes Down syndrome. Like trisomy 21, mosaic Down syndrome is not inherited. It occurs as a random event during cell division early in fetal development.
At birth, babies with Down syndrome usually have certain characteristic signs, including:
flat facial features.
small head and ears.
short neck.
bulging tongue.
eyes that slant upward.
atypically shaped ears.
poor muscle tone.
Fifteen to thirty percent of women with trisomy 21 are fertile and they have about 50% risk of having a child with Down syndrome. There are few case reports of a man with Down syndrome fathering a child.1 Here, we are reporting a case of woman with Down syndrome, who had delivered a normal child.
