Capsule Comments

October is Flu Prevention Month. We keep
hearing that the "big one" is going to happen
some year soon. This is the worldwide flu
pandemic, which will result in many deaths. Get
your flu shot this year for an ounce of prevention.
Men whose sleep was limited to four hours a night in the 4 days
before their flu shot produced just half the antibodies against the flu
as men who had normal sleep times during that period. So a good
rest for a few nights before your flu shot will result in greater
protection.
Over the past decade or so, much work has been done on a
male contraceptive hormone preparation. It's been quite a difficult
problem to solve and it doesn't look like it will become a reality for
quite awhile.
A new long-lasting insulin was released in Canada earlier this
year. It's called Lantus and because of its unique design, usage
results in very constant levels of insulin over 24 hours. It's usually
administered once daily at bedtime.
Stew, Sean and Sophia Slater were among those taking in the activities at the 32nd annual
Bannockburn Fall Hike Oct. 2, hosted by the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority
(ABCA).As well as enjoying a fall walk, participants enjoyed cider and a scavenger hunt.
ABCA conservation education specialist Matt Redmond said donations raised by the hike
will go towards water sampling and trail maintenance. (photo/Pat Bolen)
