e7 Health Now Combines Prevention With Education In A New Healthcare Initiative
LAS VEGAS (PRWEB) May 15, 2018 -- With summer approaching and millions of people gearing up for a season of travel both locally and abroad, it is more critical than ever that people are aware of both the risks associated with the myriad of diseases active in many countries and the preventative measures that can be taken to avoid them.
Vaccines, Risk Level Monitoring, safe travel and eating habits, even the use of specific creams and sprays can all be beneficial ways to ward off potential diseases before they derail a trip or cause serious bodily harm.
Even in the United States, diseases like E Choli are taking a toll with the first reported death attributed to the current wave of the disease taking place in California this month. Additionally, outbreaks like Cholera have been seen in Canada.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that worldwide cases of cholera have steadily increased since 2005. According to estimates by the World Health Organization, about 1.3 to 4 million people contract cholera every year, and there are between 21,000 to 143,000 casualties annually from the virus.
Cholera usually occurs in countries that have poor sanitation, so this recent outbreak of the virus was puzzling because it rarely hits Canada, and it is considered extremely rare in the States. Cholera is one of many illnesses that can be prevented through routine vaccination and travel medicine consultation services offered by e7 Health
While many options exists to prevent and treat diseases, one of the key issues that presents as a barrier to proper care is education. As Dr. Jonathan Baktari MD, CEO of e7 health states “Sometimes something as simple as washing your lettuce even if the bag says “washed”, or carrying a specialized bug spray when traveling abroad can save time, health, and financial resources”.
e7 Health, a chain of healthcare provision companies in Las Vegas and Chicago, has been providing vaccines, travel guidance, and a variety of other health services for individuals, families, employers, students, schools, immigration and other consumer applications for many years. “What we noticed however”, says Dr. Baktari, “Is that people don’t know what they don’t know, and they tend to seek medical assistance as a reactive response instead of a proactive one”.
To address the need to educate consumers on health and wellness related topics, e7 health has launched a new health education initiative called “Healthful Tips”. This initiative takes critical health information and disseminates it in simple, short, interactive videos that convey the most important information in a format designed for digital distribution.
With the ever-increasing attachment to technology and social media, e7 health continues on its path of technological excellence by providing health education material primed for modern consumption across channels such as Facebook, Instagram, twitter, Google Plus, Linked-In, Youtube and others.
