Chris Lyons+FollowCheck Your Fridge for This Cheese Recall!Did you buy grated Pecorino Romano cheese at Sam’s Club, Wegmans, or Safeway lately? The FDA just upgraded the recall to its highest risk level because of possible Listeria contamination. Even if your cheese looks and smells fine, it could still be dangerous—especially for pregnant people, older adults, or anyone with a weak immune system. If you’ve got Ambriola, Locatelli, Member’s Mark, Pinna, or Boar’s Head grated cheese from November, toss it or return it for a refund! #Health #BodyHealth #CheeseRecall00Share

Keith Stokes+FollowWhy Baton Rouge needs its own med schoolLSU pours millions into STEM and research, yet Baton Rouge still doesn’t have its own medical school—despite a looming doctor shortage and sky-high rejection rates for Louisiana’s aspiring physicians. Students here are forced to choose between distant campuses in New Orleans or Shreveport, neither of which are ideal for safety or community ties. With new science buildings and plenty of classroom space, why isn’t LSU stepping up to meet this urgent need? Investing in a local med school could change the game for students and healthcare in our city. What do you think Baton Rouge needs most right now? #Health #BodyHealth #BatonRouge00Share

Jacqueline Ray+FollowBoise teacher battles school over Lyme diseaseA Boise teacher’s fight with the school district is raising big questions about classroom safety. Michelle Chung says she developed Lyme disease after mice infested her kitchen classroom at West Junior High—think droppings in ovens, nests in printers, and a costly illness that’s not covered by insurance. Despite repeated reports, she claims the district ignored the problem until she paid for her own inspection, which labeled her classroom as “diseased.” Now she’s suing for help with her medical bills and demanding a full school inspection. How safe do you feel sending your kids to school? #Health #BodyHealth #Boise00Share
