Swine flu fears factor in possible school closures
The Associated Press
Schools are ideal breeding grounds for the virus. Not only are children more susceptible than adults to swine flu but the crowded sometimes unsanitary conditions gives the virus a perfect chance to spread. Countries on both sides of the Atlantic are closely monitoring schools yet some have vastly different plans on whether they will close schools to fight the epidemic. Both the United States and the United Kingdom say they will not close schools except under exceptional circumstances.

A Fitting Health Care Tribute to Sen. Kennedy
FXNews
I spoke about it Thursday on my radio commentary “The Huckabee Report” that is heard on 500 radio stations across America. I pointed out that when Senator Kennedy was diagnosed with terminal cancer he chose to fight with all that was within him for life instead of choosing the pain pill that President bama spoke of in his answer to Jane Sturm during his White House town hall.

Kennedy siblings with a legacy of child health
ModernMedicine
Senator Edward Kennedy (D-Mass) who died on Tuesday Aug 25 at age 77 was one of Washington’s most influential voices for health care. Last year he was crucial in getting a mental health parity bill passed which will help those with addictions or psychological disorders be covered by their insurance provider. This year he helped pass a bill that put tobacco under the regulatory power of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Most notably in recent years he helped spearhead the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SHCIP) which has given millions of low- and middle-income children medical coverage.

Schools develop strategy to target H1N1
Canada Western Catholic Reporter
The phrase “Please wash your hands if you sneeze or cough!” will be translated into seven languages on these posters. “We are asking parents to monitor their child’s health and if their child is showing any symptoms of the flu we are asking parents to keep their child at home for at least 48 hours after the flu symptoms have disappeared” said Nagy. The same action is advised at schools in Red Deer Catholic. “Basically what it comes down to is if you think your child is sick or has the flu keep him home” said Stewart who has also adapted an action plan on how to deal with the H1N1 situation. “We have a protocol on how to act and when we should be looking at doing things. We’ve got a flowchart on actions we should take” said Stewart.

Westbury Times
While currently there is no vaccine for H1N1 clinical trials of a vaccine are under way and may be ready for the public as early as this fall. It?s important that parents begin the immunization process early by ensuring their children receive routine childhood vaccinations. Many basic immunizations are covered under Child Health Plus in addition to opportunities like the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program which provides free vaccines for children 18 years and under. These programs offer parents a convenient low-cost way to ensure their child receives basic immunizations. In New York State all students are required to be immunized against poliomyelitis mumps measles rubella hepatitis B diphtheria and varicella (chickenpox). It?s also recommended that all first-year college students planning to live in dorms be immunized against meningitis a rare but deadly contagious disease that affects college students as a result of crowded living environments. Though vaccinations early in life are critical to a child?s healthy development the immunization process should be continued throughout adolescence and into adulthood to reduce the risk of catching certain diseases like human papillomavirus (HPV).

• Keep sick children at home. No one should return to school until they have had no fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medicine even if they feel better. If you have questions about your child’s health or symptoms call your child’s healthcare provider. • Do not send children to school if they are sick. Any children who are determined to be sick while at school will be sent home. • Get your child vaccinated against seasonal flu this fall and H1N1 influenza when it becomes available. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has noted that young people are more susceptible to flu.

Many more are believed to have occurred but were either unrecognized or unreported. Special Helmets In an effort to alert coaches and trainers to a head hit warranting investigation players at several colleges and some high schools have helmets fitted with a telemetric system that can almost instantly transmit wireless signals to computers on the sideline about the intensity and location of a hit. The system called HITS was developed by Simbex of Lebanon N. with support from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. It is marketed by Riddell but is still primarily a research tool to help coaches trainers and doctors identify players who may not report symptoms for fear of being taken out of the game.

“Although South Africa is considered a middle-income country in terms of its economy it has health outcomes that are worse than those in many lower income countries” South African doctors said in the British medical journal. The journal published a series of articles highlighting the challenges facing South Africa’s health system which has been transformed into a comprehensive national service 15 years after the end of apartheid. But the country faces a collision of epidemics including AIDS and tuberculosis as well as a high level of deadly violence and poor services for mothers and children the articles said.

As a precaution school administrators are quickly changing how they handle sick children. Students who report for class with a temperature of more than 100 degrees will be sent home without exception and not permitted to return until a day after the fever breaks. School nurses will track absenteeism and report kids’ symptoms to county health departments a practice that began last spring when the. Teachers aides and cafeteria servers will continue to drill students in common-sense precautions such as washing. While much about the emergent H1N1 strain remains a mystery so far it has hit young children especially hard.

And the president is absolutely correct. We don’t have to pay more to bring these new people in because we’re already paying for those people. If you have got someone who doesn’t have health care insurance and their child gets sick you can bet that they put them in a car and they go to the emergency room and somebody pays that $5000 for that emergency room visit. It wasn’t the person that was uninsured. It’s the rest of the pool. So if we can bring people in and give them some kind of a — a health care system so that they get the children to doctors to clinics to make sure that they’re getting their wellness checkups that people go to a doctor before the — the disease is advanced — look we know a little bit about managing money in Montana as you know Neil.

Survival of the Fittest
Washington Post
Why isn’t this addressed in this bill? Because if this bill is passed tort reform becomes a moot point. This bill is designed to end private insurance to bring all healthcare professionals into the employ of the government and thus under the protective clause of the bill which does not allow any individual insured to sue for any sort of malpractice such as a child dying while the government drags its feet in making a decision on what care to provide based on the child’s age and expected years of productivity. My child would be dead if this bill had been law in 1999 because she had to have surgery in the second month of life. My child’s health now and her expected productivity is the equal of that of any other child her age but under Ezekiel Emanuel’s life chart if there’d been a shortage of available healthcare due to say a shortage of money to pay for healthcare her surgery most likely would’ve been denied since she was but two months of age. The concerns are very real. And every halfway-informed American should be terrified.

Health Insurance For Children is Smart Reform
RealClearPolitics
2 billion worth of health care from our system that the rest of us paid for in some way. Reducing unnecessary trips to the emergency room can cut this cost enormously. Investing in the health of America’s children is a sound investment in our economy as a whole. It is important to be reminded that a child’s health care needs are not the same as an adult’s and that health care provided to a developing child can dramatically impact their future ability to contribute to the nation’s economic vitality. Childhood health has been shown to correlate to income level and wealth in adulthood and a healthy workforce is in the best interest of a nation seeking to maximize its productivity and efficiency. In studies done on siblings a healthy childhood versus an unhealthy childhood led to as much as a 24 percent difference in earnings in adult careers. Approached in this way our health care system is not a burden on our economy but instead one of its main driving engines.

Health Care and the Unborn: Why We Need Free Prenatal Care
Huffington Post
online 26 June 2009) the proportion of American women receiving adequate prenatal care is only 75 percent — which means 1 in 4 women in America are bearing fetuses in danger of compromised development. As you might expect the major reason for any lack of adequate prenatal care in low-income families is economics — it costs money. If a family with a pregnant woman just has enough income to put food on the table and new shoes on the growing feet of children the pregnant woman either delays prenatal care or tries to avoid it as much as possible if payment for the care must come out of the family budget. Can anyone name another industrialized country where a pregnant woman needs to worry about the cost of prenatal care? It’s a uniquely American misery in our current health care circus — a circus in which various clowns in Congress are trying to convince the American people that everything can be left in the hands of private enterprise.

Health coverage for all children is a necessary step toward eliminating health disparities and ensuring access to care. And now is the time to take that step with real child health care reform. Right now we live in a nation where children of color experience significant health disparities that begin before birth and follow them throughout their lives. Black infants are more than twice as likely as white infants to die before their first birthday and have higher infant mortality rates than children in 62 nations including Barbados Malaysia and Thailand. ne in every seven babies born to black mothers is born at low birthweight a core risk factor for infant mortality and childhood developmental disorders. The rate of black infants born at low birthweight in the United States is worse than the rate of low birthweight in more than 100 nations including Algeria Botswana and Panama.

Veneman who is on a working visit to the country decried a situation where children die as a result of preventable diseases. She called on Nigerian government at all levels to show the required political will by providing healthcare with an integrated approach. The UNICEF executive director who is scheduled to launch the first ever bi-annual child health week commended Nigeria for localizing the event. She said countries such as South Africa and Mozambique where the week is observed have experienced improved indices in child and maternal survival.

Religious belief does not trump a child’s health

Like all rights they end when you begin to harm or burden others. A religious belief does not allow you to ignore your responsibilities either. As a parent you are responsible for your child’s well-being. Prayer is good but if serious action is needed – say a visit to the hospital when your son jumps off the roof of the house – then you have a duty to seek the proper medical attention as needed. Madeline Neumann fits that example. For two weeks she exhibited symptoms of a child who had an illness.
