The most effective way to prevent the flu is by getting a yearly flu shot!

Other than getting a flu vaccine, there are a few other ways you can protect yourself:

🔹 Wash your hands often with soap and water.
🔹 Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
🔹 Eat a healthy diet and drink plenty of water.

Haven't received your flu vaccine yet? No problem! Simply call your SouthCoast Health provider's office to schedule a vaccine appointment.

Across the United States, flu activity is actually low. However, in certain pockets across the country, there are influenza outbreaks that can bring a city to its knees one school and office building at a time.

Do children's brains respond differently when they’re reading a print book versus on a screen? 📖🧠📲

A recent experimental study measured the brain responses of children between the ages of 3 to 5 during listening to a story read by a person while viewing a book versus listening to an audio story while viewing a screen.

Researchers found that brain activity differed between the two conditions, particularly in regions of the brain associated with processing social information that were more active during the printed book reading activity. The findings suggest different types of reading may differ in how they impact brain activity related to children's language development.
