Only about 10 cases per year were reported before then. Health officials say the virus has sent 233 people to the hospital and caused two deaths. Hepatitis A is a viral infection. It usually spreads when a person ingests the virus from objects, food or drinks contaminated by undetected amounts of stool from an infected person. ___ Information from: St. Louis Post-Dispatch, http://www.stltoday.com Claim: Health officials raise concerns about hepatitis A outbreak.

[Q]: Paragraph: Tuesday is the final day of Sexually Transmitted Disease Awareness Month, and the state CDC says it’s recommending prevention, screening and treatment. The agency says Maine has seen “dramatic increases” in gonorrhea and syphilis in the last five years. Gonorrhea cases increased nearly 200 percent, to 686, from 2014 to 2018. Syphilis cases have risen by almost 600 percent, to 104, in that same timeframe. Acting Maine CDC Director Nancy Beardsley says the health consequences of sexually transmitted infections are serious enough that residents “know the facts about STDs and get tested if they believe they are at risk.” Claim: Maine stresses test as sexually transmitted infections surge.
[A]: The Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention is calling on residents to get tested for sexually transmitted infections amid a spike in cases of gonorrhea and syphilis in the state.


[Q]: Paragraph: "A nurse takes care of a 2-month-old premature infant lying in an incubator at a hospital in Enshi, Hubei province, China May 4, 2010. REUTERS/China Daily “This is an entirely new finding,” said Casey Crump of Stanford University, whose findings are published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. “Even people born just a couple of weeks early had an increased risk of mortality.”   Previously, preemies were believed to go on to have normal death rates once they have survived their early years. Crump, though, said the results, based on Swedish data, should not cause undue alarm. “The absolute mortality was still less than one per 1,000 people per year, so it’s very low,” he added. His team studied a group of nearly 675,000 Swedes born between 1973 and 1979. They found that children born before 37 weeks of pregnancy were much more likely to die before age five than others. That link disappeared in late childhood and adolescence, but then re-emerged in early adulthood — from 18 to 36 years. The health problems linked to earlier death included heart disease, diabetes and asthma. “It appears that some of these causes have a long period of development,” Crump said. Among young adults born at 22 to 27 weeks’ gestation, the death rate was 0.94 per 1,000 people per year. For those born between weeks 37 and 42, considered full-term, the rate was 0.46 per 1,000. According to Crump, between 12 and 13 percent of babies in the U.S. are now born preterm, and the rate of survival has risen fast over the past few decades. “I think it’s important to be aware of the potential for an increased risk of various health problems through the life course,” he said. ""It will be important for survivors of preterm birth to get regular health checkups and screening, and to avoid smoking and obesity to offset those risks.""

[A]:
Health problems are common among premature babies, who are more likely to die than their full-term peers during the first few years of life — and they may also face slightly increased death rates as young adults, a study said.
