va community care network :: Article Creator The MISSION Act: Understanding The VA's Community Care Program The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs launched the Community Care Program after the VA Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks (MISSION) Act was signed into law in 2018.

antispasmodic tablet :: Article Creator What Do Americans Deserve To Know About Their Presidents' Health? Dr. Gabe Mirkin John F. Kennedy was probably the sickest U.S. President ever. He suffered from a disease called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome, which was not described genetically until 1981, 18 years after he was assassinated (Medicine, 1981;60(5):355-62). This disease made him miserable by knocking off his thyroid and adrenal glands, and probably his parathyroid glands also. Multiple defects in his immune system had caused him to suffer a strep infection called scarlet fever in childhood, colitis (bloody diarrhea), gastritis, a duodenal ulcer (burning in the stomach), chronic urinary infections, and chronic prostatitis. While he was president, he was treated by an allergist, an endocrinologist, a gastroenterologist, an orthopedist, a urologist and several other doctors. His doctors treated his many symptoms with an unbelievable amo...

vaccines are made up of :: Article Creator 'Game Changer': LSU Professor Develops Vaccine For Virus That Kills Millions Of Calves A Year Bulls and cows can survive an illness called bovine respiratory disease, but it can be fatal to calves, killing about 8 million of them every year in the U.S. A new vaccine developed by an LSU veterinary medicine professor will be a game changer, the university said. What makes bovine respiratory disease particularly dangerous is that the complex of viruses that cause it can stay in cells near the brain and return at will, said Shafiqul Chowdhury, Ph.D., who has spent the past decade developing a vaccine that can stop the disease. "The virus enters through the animal's nose, creeps along the nerves and enters nerve fibers and cell bodies close to the brain," Chowdhury said. "This virus sits in the nucleus for life and can come back."  With his vaccine, "it will s...
