The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the first-ever over-the-counter test that can detect both the flu and COVID-19.  Unfortunately, this comes just two days after the company which developed the test, Lucira Health, filed for bankruptcy.  Lucira cited the lengthy process the FDA put them through to get the final approval.  The test works by taking a nasal swab and then you receive the results in only 30 minutes.  The test is meant to be used by people 14 and over or by an adult collecting a sample by someone 2 years or older.

It’s Important To Get Regular Health Checkups

Many seniors, particularly men, don’t go to their primary physician for regular checks.  It’s likely due to a fear of them finding something wrong.  However, a study that was done in 2019 found that having 10 additional primary care doctors per 100K people increases a community’s average life expectancy by 51.5 days.  This is due to the fact that more doctor visits leads to more vaccinations and screening tests.  Medicare pays for a free annual wellness visit.

Musculoskeletal Fitness Is A Prime Indicator Of Declining Health.

Oddly enough, new research found that if you are unable to balance on one foot for 10 seconds, you’re twice as likely to die over the next decade.  So if any of you girls were sent to charm school when you were young and taught proper balance and posture, now is the time to thank your mother.   The peer-reviewed study was published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine and found that poor balance is linked to frailty in older adults and one’s musculoskeletal fitness is a prime indicator of declining health.

Monterey, CA Telehealth Continues To Boom

Telehealth continues to boom even as the pandemic has begun to slow.  It’s quicker, easier, and doctors can see more patients.  Prior to the pandemic, telehealth made up less than 0.01% of healthcare visits across the United States.  By mid-April of 2020, that number had jumped to 69%.  Both Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula, or CHOMP, and Dignity Health care are actively promoting telehealth.  This is particularly great news for those with rare diseases for which there are just a handful of specialists nationwide.  A new study found that 83% of those with rare diseases were offered a telehealth visit by their health care provider and 92% of those felt it was a positive experience.
