Canada to Remove All COVID Border Restrictions Oct. 1
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- All COVID travel restrictions in Canada will be gone starting on Oct. 1, health officials announced Tuesday.Both international and domestic travelers to the country will be able to give up such pandemic mainstays as submitting mandatory health information through ArriveCAN when entering the country and proof of vaccination or COVID-19 testing prior to or on arrival.The country is also discontinuing quarantine, isolation and symptom-monitoring policies, CBS News reported. These restrictions had remained for rail and air travelers, even as others fell. Travelers on cruise ships will lose some of the rules, but not all. "Cruise measures are also being lifted, and travelers will no longer be required to have pre-board tests, be vaccinated, or use...
COVID Infection Raises a Child's Odds for Type 1...
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Children who fall ill with COVID-19 may have a slightly increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes, a new study suggests.Researchers found that of more than 285,000 children with COVID, 0.04% were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes over the next six months. While that's a small percentage, it was 72% higher than the rate in a comparison group of kids with no history of COVID.Experts said the findings do not prove that COVID is to blame. But the study adds to a body of evidence linking the infection to heightened risks of various long-term health conditions.Type 1 diabetes is far less common than type 2 diabetes, which typically arises in adulthood and is often associated with obesity. In contrast, type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the...
Happiness From Home Buying Is Often Fleeting, Study Shows
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Home ownership may be the culmination of the American Dream, but a new study cautions that many people think they will be happier than they actually become once they are king or queen of their own castle.“We wanted to investigate whether home buyers correctly predict the long-term impact of this major life decision on their individual well-being,†explained study author Alois Stutzer. He is director of the Center for Research in Economics and Well-Being at the University of Basel, in Switzerland.The sobering reality was that people tend to “over-estimate their future satisfaction with life†after signing on the dotted line.But there was a twist: Personality mattered. The study found that home buyers who were more invested in status,...
Coffee Might Perk Up Your Heart and Life Span
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Folks who drink two or three cups of coffee daily appear to live longer than people who don’t care for the beverage, new research shows.Coffee lovers also seemed to have healthier hearts, which might contribute to the longevity boost, said the team of Australian investigators.The findings were published Sept. 27 in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology.“Ground, instant and decaffeinated coffee were associated with equivalent reductions in the incidence of cardiovascular disease and death from cardiovascular disease or any cause,†study author Dr. Peter Kistler, of the Baker Heart and Diabetes Research Institute in Melbourne, said in a journal news release.While other studies have suggested that the coffee habit might be a...
AHA News: She's Celebrating Her 50th Birthday and 9th Anniversary of Her Heart Transplant
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (American Heart Association News) -- At 26, Melody Hickman of Raleigh, North Carolina, was crestfallen. A routine physical detected a problem with her mitral valve. Fixing it required open-heart surgery."I knew I would have to be on a heart-lung machine, and the idea of having the incision really bothered me," she said, noting she often wore V-neck tops. "It was a lot to digest."The surgery and recovery went well. Then, 14 years later, the valve needed to be replaced again. That meant a second open-heart surgery.In the aftermath of that surgery, she often felt weak and sick to her stomach. Feeling hot and sweaty at work one day, she locked her office door, closed the blinds and threw up into a wastebasket. "My legs were so weak that I couldn't even get up off...
Clinic Brings Free Health Care to Homeless Youth -- and Their Beloved Pets
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Five years back, “Nugget†the Jack-A-Poo was in serious need of some tender loving veterinary care.“He needed vaccinations and a few other things,†Seattle native Grace Stroklund recalled of her sidekick, a Jack Russell Terrier/Toy Poodle mix. “But I was just not in the wheelhouse financially to do any of that.â€At 23, Stroklund was struggling with her own challenges. Homeless and in need of medical care herself, she was regularly showering and eating at a drop-in homeless center run by a local church. Even so, it was Nugget’s needs that were top of mind. “I guarantee you that having Nugget and wanting to make sure he was healthy and was getting what he needed motivated me to seek care and preventive care for myself that I...
Soaring Food Prices Are Tough on Older Americans, Poll Finds
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- While many older Americans are experiencing sticker shock when they shop for food, lower-income and less-healthy adults are hurting the most, a new poll reveals.Three-quarters of respondents in the latest University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging said the price of groceries has affected them somewhat or a lot. About a third said their diet is less healthy because of it.More than one-third of the 50- to 80-year-olds surveyed said rising food costs have had a substantial impact on them. That included 46% of those who said their physical health was fair or poor, and 58% of those who described their mental health that way. About 48% of respondents with a high school education or less said prices were having a substantial impact on...
Anxiety During Pregnancy Could Mean Earlier Delivery
27 September 2022
TUESDAY, Sept. 27, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Too much anxiety isn't good for anyone, but a new study suggests it is particularly perilous for pregnant women because it can raise the chances of their child being born early.Given that finding, the researchers recommended that doctors screen for anxiety during the first and third trimesters of pregnancy.“Anxiety about a current pregnancy is a potent psychosocial state that may affect birth outcomes,†said lead study author Dr. Christine Dunkel Schetter, of the University of California, Los Angeles. “These days, depressive symptoms are assessed in many clinic settings around the world to prevent complications of postpartum depression for mothers and children. This and other studies suggest that we should also be assessing anxiety in...
