MLK Day

In celebration of Martin Luther King Day tomorrow, we remember this powerful quote:

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of convenience and comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

From his 1963 book, Strength to Love.

Flu or Covid?

Aloha ‘Ohana,

Did you know that three viruses are sending both children and adults to emergency rooms across the U.S. this winter: Covid is making a comeback because of new immune-evasive variants, and flu and the respiratory syncytial virus are spreading at record rates.

Most people were able to avoid flu and RSV while much of the population was taking steps to slow the spread of Covid. Now, our immunity to these viruses may have waned.

"You can get really sick, perhaps more so than you would have normally because your immune system really hasn't been challenged as much recently," said Dr. Priya Soni, a pediatric infectious disease specialist.

So, how do you know if you or your children have one of these viruses? We've created an interactive guide to help you identify your symptoms - and what to do to confirm and treat the various infections. (If your symptoms are severe or if you test positive for Covid, call (808) 293-9231 or visit www.koolauloachc.org to set up an appointment).
