By Easton Bryant, PharmD
Sponsored information from the owner of NCP


Collagen is getting a lot of attention these days. But why? It's simple, really. We've learned how it correlates directly with aging and we've also discovered effective ways to address that.

Just like omega-3's weren't a hot topic 20 years ago yet have earned their rightful spot as a practically-essential supplement, collagen's story has been strikingly similar over the past few years. I've put together some key takeaways to help you understand the current collagen hype.

LCDHD COVID-19 Public Information Brief 3/12/2021

By Amy Tomlinson
Lake Cumberland District Health Department

Remember, now that our staff are off on Saturday and Sunday, our weekly summary will be on Fridays. We added 182 new cases in the last 7 days compared to 365 the 7 days prior. While we announced several historic deaths that weren't in our numbers, we only experienced 3 deaths over the last 7 days. We have 23 hospitalized COVID-19 cases compared to 30 last Friday. Our districtwide 7-day average incidence rate is 12.42 compared to 24.90 last week.

So, happily, our new case rate continues to drop. We now have 5 counties in the "yellow-community-spread" category, Casey, Clinton, Cumberland, Russell, and Wayne; 4 counties in the "orange-critical" range of community-spread: Adair, McCreary, Pulaski, and Taylor; and 1 county in the "red-critical" range of community-spread: Green.

Until the vaccine is widely available, let's all do our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 by wearing our face coverings, avoiding crowds (especially in confined spaces), social distancing when around others, increasing our hand hygiene, increasing our general sanitation, and by avoiding touching our faces.

Statewide Testing Positivity Rate: 3.88%.
