“This year, we are aiming on helping people identify their support system so that they know if they have a question, if they've got a problem, if they need something, who are they going to call?” said Lori Nester, breastfeeding coordinator for the Allen County WIC program. “And that can include family and friends, knowing who to call at your doctor’s office, at the hospital, the WIC office — wherever you might need to make that call.”
This year especially, people have been focusing on their mental health because of the effects that the pandemic has had on our lives. The World Health Organization has made it their goal this year to spread awareness and increase the funding on all levels for mental health.
Coronavirus has been officially named COVID-19 by the World Health Organization. The virus is centered in China and has been causing an expansive outbreak of respiratory sickness across the globe. It's important to know that people in the United States have a very low risk of contracting the virus, and there are only 15 confirmed cases here, none of them being in Ohio.
