⚠️ Tahini #FoodRecall Due to Salmonella – Turkana Food Inc. has recalled Aleppo Tahini Sesame Paste due to Salmonella contamination. The recall affects 858 cases, and while no illnesses have been reported yet, Salmonella can cause fever, diarrhea, and severe complications. Check for lot #120824-01 (exp. August 2026) and return it for a refund. ⚠️ CDC Deletes Bird Flu Data – The #CDC removed data suggesting bird flu (H5N1) spread between cats and humans. In one case, a cat may have infected a teenager before dying, and in another, a farmworker showed symptoms before their cat fell ill and died. With 67 human infections reported, experts warn that withholding this information could slow outbreak response. The virus has also been found in dairy cattle, raising concerns about its spread. ⚠️ CDC Report Missing Key Health Threats – The CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) is back, but instead of the usual 20+ pages covering major health issues, this issue was just eight pages with two short reports. Experts warn that updates on bird flu, a new mpox strain, and other health threats are missing. ⚠️ FDA Approves New Parkinson’s Treatment – The #FDA has approved Onapgo, the first wearable infusion device for advanced Parkinson’s. It delivers continuous medication, helping reduce OFF episodes by 2.6 hours per day, with benefits showing within the first week. It’s expected to be available by mid-2025. ⚠️ New #Alzheimer’s Research Shows Promise – A new study suggests a possible breakthrough in treating memory loss. Researchers found that a new medication helped improve memory in mice, despite the usual Alzheimer’s plaques still present. Human trials are needed, but this could offer a new way to treat Alzheimer’s symptoms. 🚨 What to Do: ✅ Check your pantry – If you have the recalled tahini, return it. ✅ Be aware of bird flu risks – Withholding data doesn’t stop the virus from spreading. ✅ Talk to your doctor – A new Parkinson’s treatment could improve movement. With official updates still scarce, health professionals like @Dr. Rubin, MD and @Tommy Martin M.D., and others are stepping up to keep the public informed so make sure you also follow them to stay updated. - @doctorsood
