As Social Media Time Rises, So Does Teen Girls' Suicide Risk
consumer.healthday.com
TUESDAY, Feb. 16, 2021 (HealthDay News) -- As the amount of time young teenage girls spend glued to Instagram, TikTok and other social media sites goes up, so does their long-term risk for suicide, a new study warns.The finding stems from a decade spent tracking social media habits and suicide risk....From Dr Ben…So this was awesome, got a pre-opening tour of the Children’s Hospital at Memorial Health University Medical Center with Dr Buckler and Dr Thacker and team, and it’s impressive. Since I came here as a Pediatric Resident 2 decades ago, a “stand alone” children’s hospital has been a dream for Savannah with many reboot attempts. Well it’s clearly been achieved, to open in 3 weeks. Congrats to Willett Children’s on upcoming success! #PutKids1st #Savannah
Martin’s dream is coming true. Wonderful.
It is so exciting to see this finally come to fruition!!!!🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

Some updated guidance on baby foods and metals, if you have seen recently in the news-
healthychildren.org
There are steps parents can take to lower their child's risk of too much metals in his or her diet. Learn more here.Biggest area of confusion we are seeing, is people going for testing after exposure before day 7. Chance of a false negative test is high, and should not end quarantine. If you test negative within 7 days after exposure, still quarantine for 10 days at least (14 days is safest), or, need a repeat negative test at day 7. Thanks Coastal Georgia Public Health
