rmartinFollowingPandemic Drinking & Blood Pressure Deaths SpikeDid you know deaths from high blood pressure linked to excessive drinking shot up over 50% during the pandemic? The CDC just dropped a report showing that women were hit even harder—over 60% of these deaths were among females. Basically, 1 in 5 hypertension deaths in women were tied to booze between 2020-2021. The pandemic stress clearly didn’t just go away, and neither did the drinking. Makes you think twice about that extra glass! #HealthNews #PandemicImpact #AlcoholAwareness #Health #BodyHealth50Share

Brandon Burke+FollowAnxiety Levels Still Higher Than Pre-CovidTurns out, we’re still way more anxious than we were before the pandemic. The latest stats show over 1 in 5 UK adults are feeling high anxiety—higher than any pre-2020 numbers. Women and people in their early 50s are feeling it the most. Happiness and life satisfaction? Those haven’t really changed, but anxiety just won’t go back to ‘normal.’ Anyone else still feeling the pandemic aftershocks? #MentalHealth #Anxiety #PandemicImpact #Health10Share
Kevin Nicholson+FollowCommuter Rails Are Still in Recovery ModeDid you know most commuter rail systems haven’t bounced back since the pandemic? Ridership is still way down, and the money from those big COVID relief packages is basically gone. Some rail lines are trying new tricks—like free youth passes and more flexible schedules—but with costs up and fewer riders, things are looking rough. If fares go up, will even more people ditch the train? Wild to see how much our commutes have changed! #CommuterRail #PublicTransit #PandemicImpact #UrbanLife #TransitTrends #Transportation132Share
Jason Weaver+FollowPandemic’s Shocking Impact on MomsJust found out COVID-19 made US maternal deaths spike way more than we thought. The numbers jumped for every racial group, but Native American and Black women were hit the hardest. Turns out, the pandemic pushed rates to their highest in decades, and even changes in how deaths are reported can’t explain it all. Makes you wonder how prepared we really are for moms’ health in a crisis. #MaternalHealth #PandemicImpact #HealthDisparities #WomensHealth #Health454Share
