  • Respiratory illnesses have spiked among children. What parents need to know.

    Children’s hospitals in major U.S. cities have been reporting unusually high numbers of sick patients with respiratory illnesses caused by viruses other than the coronavirus. These include respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), enteroviruses (EV) and rhinovirus (RV), which mostly cause cold-like symptoms such as a runny nose, coughing, sneezing and fever.

    Yahoo News spoke to Dr. Michael Chang, pediatric infectious diseases specialist at UTHealth Houston and Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital about why these winter viruses may be surging earlier than usual, as well as what parents can do to best protect their children.

  • Why Americans Wait So Long For Organs

    There are more than 100,000 people in the United States waiting for an organ transplant, and they could be waiting a while. A little more than 50% of people waiting for an organ will receive one within five years because of the shortage of organs available.

    The organ donation system in the U.S. is designed to save as many lives as possible without wasting available organs, but there are built-in inequalities that affect who has access. People of color, people of lower socioeconomic status and women receive transplants at a lower rate and are also more likely to wait longer for an organ than patients with similar medical issues.

    The medical community has been working on ways to increase the supply by using live donors for organs like kidneys, organs from animals and even mechanical organs. Watch the video above to learn how the U.S. organ transplant system works and what we can do to increase supply while decreasing inequality.

  • In 2019, weed delivery company Eaze initiated its innovative compassion program, in which donated meds are delivered to medical cannabis patients who lack the means to pay for them. Organizations such as Weed for Warriors and This is Jane Project have endorsed the program, in which cannabis is used as a pain-relief substitute for opiates and to supplement other medications.
