The fight for affordable insulin is more important than ever

We’re committed to keeping our community safe and healthy during COVID-19

Supporter, as COVID-19 becomes more pervasive, our efforts to keep the community safe are even more important—and for the more than 34 million Americans with diabetes, including nearly seven million who rely on insulin to live, our fight is personal. Here’s why. People living with diabetes face a greater risk of developing complications from COVID-19. Even scarier, this crisis is leaving many out of work and unable to afford their insulin and other medications and supplies. And we can’t let that happen. That’s why the American Diabetes Association® is advocating for a zero-dollar co-pay for insulin during this emergency. And we’re continuing to drive legislation to ensure that insulin is affordable and accessible for all. We’re also supporting legislation to guarantee uninterrupted health insurance coverage for those who have lost jobs. That’s why we need your help. We need to ensure that all people living with diabetes can get the life-saving medications, supplies and insulin they need. If you can, please consider making a donation to help us continue these advocacy efforts. For information about other medications or supplies, call 1-800-DIABETES (800-342-2383) or email askada@diabetes.org. SUPPORT OUR MISSION If you are struggling to pay for insulin or know someone who is, ADA has resources to help. Visit InsulinHelp.org. There’s nothing we can’t do when we’re Connected for Life.

medical-and-health-news-for-you.blogspot.com's impact on online safety for kids

Hello,
My name is Sofia and I volunteer to help protect children online via online courses and guides.
I see that you are also an advocate of this topic by looking at your page here http://medical-and-health-news-for-you.blogspot.com/2019/10/cognitive-health-clinical-trials-sleep.html .

I advised the company who wrote this guide on cyberbullying, and I wanted to take the opportunity to contact you and ask you if you don't mind sharing it on your page:
https://www.wizcase.com/blog/a-comprehensive-cyberbullying-guide-for-parents/

We try to educate parents and teachers alike on how to keep our kids safe online, and your help is most valued.

I appreciate your help in advance,
