In recent months, the U.S. has experienced a surge in four different viruses including the flu (Influenza A), RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus), COVID and a GI bug known as Norovirus. In addition, the Fall brought a spike in cases of a bacterial infection called Mycoplasma, especially in small children. Tune in to hear about all of these infections, how they are detected and treated and how you can protect yourself and your family members.

Your Real Champion®: “Keep Calm and Love a Tow Truck Driver”

As a tow truck driver, Dave Torres often helps people in difficult situations – flat tire, dead battery, moved after parking illegally… but in the early hours of a cold January morning he added a new type of “delivery” service to his list, and Latasha James has a beautiful new, healthy baby boy to prove it. Tune in to hear the story of two selfless people, who are role models for all of us!

Each week, we highlight the Real Champions in your life! Your family, friends, or colleagues who go the extra mile to help others in their community.
