Samantha Rux from OSF HealthCare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about flu vaccines and future flu clinics. As fall draws near, health officials are reminding the public that timely vaccinations are key to preventing illness. Families should arrange vaccine appointments for their children, as school-based flu clinics in Kewanee will not be held this year. Adults are also encouraged to keep current with vaccines such as the flu, COVID-19, RSV, and others like hepatitis B and shingles. These shots offer vital protection, especially for older adults, pregnant women, and those with underlying health issues. Talk to your provider about updating immunizations to keep yourself and your community healthy.
RSV 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 He who is a hireling and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.

【文稿:】一提到指标的算法难免会有些枯燥,但没办法、想深刻理解指标想表达的含义,没有比理解算法更直接的途径。老司机娴熟的车技靠的是多年的经验,但专业的赛车手不仅要开车经验丰富,还要对机械的工作原理熟记于心,只有这样他才能完美利用车子的性能跑出最好的成绩。不要认为车开的好就是专业车手,专业的车手也都是半个修理工。回到股票投资也是一样的道理,不要光学指标的用途,明白背后的原理才能发挥工具的作用,话不多说,接下来就来学学KDJ背后的算法原理。该指标有三条线,分别是K线、D线、和J线,算法算的就是这三条线的由来,这其中J线的算法最简单,因为它来自K线和D线的最终结果。所以K线和D线的 数值才是我们计算的关键。我们先来看K线的算法,公式比较长,建议大家对比文稿加深理解。当日K线值=2/3 x前一日K值+ 1/3x当日RSV公式并不难理解,但有一个数据大家肯定很陌生,那就是RSV,不知道这个数据你也就没法算出答案。其实RSV也是一个指标,不过很多软件已经看不到该指标了,因为在历史的进化中它被其他指标的功能所替代、比如KDJ,所以很多软件已经看不到单独的RSV指标。RSV叫做“未成熟随机值”,名字简单理解就好...RSV计算的是9日内的股价变化,为什么是9日这个周期呢?如果你还想不到答案,那就回到上一期内容恶补一下吧。当日RSV=(9日的收盘价-9日内的最低价)÷(9日内的最高价-9日内的最低价)x100得出的答案就是当天的RSV值,公式很长,但理解起来很简单。从公式可以看出;当天的RSV算的是股价最近9天内的趋势变化,这里主要利用了最近9天内,股价出现过的最高价、最低价和最终的收盘价,通过研判这三个价格的关系来断定票走势的强弱。光听我说一定很抽象,大家对着公式多思考几遍反倒会理解的更透彻。知道了RSV的算法后我们把焦点再放回到KDJ指标上,只要先求出K线的数值,剩下的D线和J线都可以轻易的算出来。当日K线值=2/3 x前一日K值+ 1/3 x当日RSV,这回你应该知道这个公式该怎么计算了...这里面有一个数值叫做“前一日K值”。有些时候情况可能会比较特殊,比如某只股刚上市第一天,没有前一日K值拿来参考怎么办?这个时候系统会默认为该数值为50。那么知道了K线的算法、接下来就是D线。当日D线值=2/3x前一日D值+1/3x当日K值D线的公式了解起来就方便多了,里面所有的数据都是透明的,不需要额外的计算。而最后的J线就更简单了,当日的J线值=3xK值-2xD值,也就是3倍的K值-2倍的D值=J线值。从公式可以看出来;J线其实就是K线和D线的差值,KD两条线的距离差就决定了J线的大小。三条线的公式就这些,下期我们主要讲讲KDJ指标的用法。另外、每条线的算法我在文稿的末端做了一个总结,感兴趣的人可以拿去享用。当日RSV=(9日的收盘价-9日内的最低价)÷(9日内的最高价-9日内的最低价)x100当日K线值=2/3 x前一日K值+ 1/3x当日RSV当日D线值=2/3x前一日D值+1/3x当日K值当日的J线值=3xK值-2xD值(节目已在江苏版权局登记,翻版必究!)

What if Donald Trump's online health rumors was more than just a headline? This Monday, we're putting Trump's health rumors under the microscope. Those viral images of bruised hands and swollen ankles have everyone talking. We'll walk you through the real medical explanations: aspirin, chronic venous insufficiency, and more! Plus, I'll share insights from my recent @TheDonLemonShow appearance.Next up: RFK Jr's CDC shake-up. A sudden wave of resignations has left America's top public health agency in flux. What does this mean for our trust in science? For vaccine access? We'll break down what's myth, what's fact, and why experts are sounding alarms about risks for preventable diseases making a comeback.Then we'll turn to Angela Bassett's wake-up call on RSV. Her personal story is a reminder that respiratory viruses like RSV aren't just “kid stuff.” They send thousands of older adults to hospitals each year. We'll talk prevention, vaccines, and why your favorite TV shows might be changing how you see your own health, and much more.This podcast is intended to be informational only.

Subtitle: Holistic Prevention and Treatment Approaches for Autism Spectrum Disorder Introduction In this episode of Pediatric Perspectives, Dr. Paul welcomes Dr. James “Neu” Neuenschwander, president of the Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs (MAPS). Together, they explore whether autism is preventable and treatable, sharing the latest insights on environmental, nutritional, and biomedical strategies for families seeking answers and hope. Dr. Neuenschwander draws on decades of clinical experience to outline practical steps for both prevention and intervention, emphasizing the importance of individualized care and the power of real food1. Key Points with Time Stamps • 00:00:40 – Dr. Paul introduces the new VAX FACTS book and where to order it. • 00:01:35 – Dr. Paul welcomes Dr. Neuenschwander, highlighting his role with MAPS and his expertise in treating children on the autism spectrum. • 00:02:42 – Dr. Neuenschwander shares his experience, having treated over a thousand children with autism, and discusses the evolving landscape of autism severity and outcomes. • 00:05:24 – Both doctors agree that biomedical interventions—addressing the gut, brain, and immune system—can make a significant difference in most children with autism. • 00:05:52 – Prevention strategies: Dr. Neuenschwander stresses the importance of maternal detoxification, optimal nutrition (methylated B vitamins, folate, iodine, vitamin D), and a non-inflammatory, toxin-free environment before and during pregnancy. • 00:08:17 – Risks of immune activation in pregnancy: Dr. Paul and Dr. Neuenschwander discuss concerns about vaccinating during pregnancy due to the lack of long-term neurodevelopmental safety data and the potential for immune activation. • 00:10:04 – RSV vaccine concerns: Dr. Neuenschwander highlights miscarriage risks associated with the RSV vaccine and the lack of adequate safety studies. • 00:11:41 – MAPS practitioner training: Dr. Neuenschwander explains the MAPS conference structure and the importance of individualized approaches—there is no one-size-fits-all protocol for autism. • 00:15:54 – Core interventions for children on the spectrum: o Start with a gluten-free, casein-free, soy-free, and corn-free diet. o Focus on real, unprocessed foods. o Address gut health and brain inflammation. o Treat cerebral folate deficiency and consider methyl B12 injections. o Detoxify the environment and avoid further toxin exposures. • 00:18:08 – Advanced strategies: o Address gut over

770 You Became an Example to All the Believers, A Guided Christian Meditation on 1 Thessalonians 1:7-10 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ. Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. Get into a place where you can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tensing or unrelaxing. If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes. Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation: Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation 1 Thessalonians 1:4-6 NET 7 As a result you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. 8 For from you the message of the Lord has echoed forth not just in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place reports of your faith in God have spread, so that we do not need to say anything. 9 For people everywhere report how you welcomed us and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God 10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus our deliverer from the coming wrath. RSV 7 so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedo′nia and in Acha′ia. 8 For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedo′nia and Acha′ia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything. 9 For they themselves report concerning us what a welcome we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God, 10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come. Reflection on Scripture: What does it mean to become an imitator of Jesus Christ? When I was out driving today I saw a sign for a church that said they were a friendly church. Many people point to the acceptance of jesus Christ and claim that he would reach out to all and be friendly. I have heard other Christians resist this notion claiming that Jesus was not nice and that is just us reading our modern sensibilities into scripture and that Jesus holds people accountable and prefers confrontation with the Word to bring people to truth. Since we are trying to be like Jesus and as Paul says here, to be an imitator of Jesus, it is far from a philosophical point to wonder how Jesus would approach sinners. Jesus had an amazing ability to make sinners both feel challenged but also loved. I think a characterization that demands we choose between Jesus accepting sinners, and permitting sin is a quite limited perspective that does not align with Jesus' actions in life. He wanted people to depart from activities that would cause them to be less like Him. Things that God calls sins do not become meaningless just because Jesus is willing to forgive us for them. I think it is a fundamentally important point that as we turn from our sin and try and reject the idolatry of the word, that this is one of the ways this scripture points to us following the example. Equally important is what it says in the verses we covered in the last episode, that we be filled with the Joy of the Holy Spirit. I believe that as we live in that joy it will pour out of our lives and help others to feel loved, but hopefully to aspire to the kind of relationship with God that feeds this joy. This week I was talking with someone who had engaged in something that they saw as a grievous sin. Both he and I agreed that it was a poor choice but due to the way I engaged with him, he felt completely loved but also completely convicted of that sin. He committed to bring it to God and return his heart to the Lord. I think this is an example of the kind of balance we can make between departing from sin but also rejoicing in the spirit. Above all the greatest invitation is for us to place our trust on the Son who was raised to heaven and will deliver us from the wrath to come. Let us ponder how we are doing with our goals to emulate this kind of loving faith Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?

Story at-a-glance Merck's respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) shot clesrovimab (Enflonsia) was approved even though 11.71% of babies in the trial experienced serious adverse events, including seizures, brain injury, and death Infants who got clesrovimab had a 350% higher risk of upper respiratory infections — exactly the type of illness this shot claims to prevent The injection is given in a single, fixed dose regardless of infant weight, putting smaller, younger babies at greater risk due to disproportionately high exposure Babies who received the shot had a threefold increase in severe neurological reactions compared to those given a placebo Only about 25 babies in the U.S. succumb to RSV each year, making the known risks of clesrovimab far outweigh the threat the virus poses to most children
