NORCROSS, GA, December 21, 2012 (Press-News.org) Rodriguez MD, a bilingual Lawrenceville clinic in Gwinnett County, GA, is offering patients seasonal influenza (flu) shots. Available for $25 while supplies last, these vaccines will prevent against three common strains of flu. Vaccinations are recommended for all persons aged 6 months and older. Individuals at high risk for flu complications include:
- Kids (over 6 months) under the age of 4
- Adults 50 years and older
- Pregnant women
- Morbidly obese
- Residents of nursing homes
- Caregivers of young children
- Individuals with cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders
"According to statements made by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this month, flu season has arrived early this year and is shaping up to be a bad one," explains Neville Street, the practice's Administrative Director. "In addition, CDC reports there have been high levels of flu activity in the south central and southeastern regions, including Georgia," says Street. The percentage of people who went to the doctor with influenza-like illness had reached the national baseline of 2.2 percent, the earliest that has happened in the regular flu season in nearly a decade.
"We are urging all our patients, who have not already done so, to get their flu shots now," shares Deborah Rodriguez, MD, one of the Lawrenceville Family Practice's physicians. "The best way to avoid getting the flu is to get the shot," she adds. Each year about a quarter of the U.S. population gets the flu and approximately 36,000 people die each year from the flu.
Located in Terrace Park Medical Center on 771 Old Norcross Rd, Rodriguez MD's patients receive a level of care that surpasses other Lawrenceville clinics. The practice offers continuing and comprehensive medical care, health maintenance and preventive services to both kids and adults. They are also an official Center for Medical Weight Loss in Lawrenceville, GA.
Rodriguez MD accepts all commercial insurance and Medicare; cash pricing is also available. Their Gwinnett doctors are American Board Certified in Family Medicine and Internal Medicine.

Flood Protection Made in Germany by RS Stepanek KG.
2012-12-21
It has been ten years since great damage was caused by the Elbe flood. Measures to prevent a further high tide of this scale have been called for but as soon as the news coverage about the Elbe flood abated, the problem retreated into the background once more. The results that present themselves ten years after the high tide are alarming: Little has happened for the protection of the Elbe river banks. Relocations of the dykes and several settlements into the hinterland could be seen. At the same time, much has been done for the development of the shipping on the Elbe. According ...

Most press release distribution companies also require the name of the company or individual issuing the release to appear in the headline. For example, your headline should read: 'ABC Motors Honoured to Receive Best ...

'Study partners' play critical role in clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease
2012-12-20
For Alzheimer's disease researchers who conduct clinical trials, enrolling enough patients to make a trial meaningful is always a challenge. To enroll a single patient in a study requires not one but two participants — the patient and what's known as a study partner. Study partners provide the patient with support and update researchers about the patient's progress.
A new UCLA study has assessed the prevalence of the various types of study partners in Alzheimer's clinical trials — a patient's spouse or "other" partners, like a patient's adult child — and has discovered ...
