For Serese Marotta, it all comes back to the seat belt analogy. The CEO of the advocacy group Families Fighting Flu can’t get through a conversation about the dangers of the flu without comparing getting the flu vaccine to putting on your kid’s seat belt. A seat belt can’t guarantee your child’s safety in 100 […]
People offer up plenty of…questionable…excuses for not getting their annual flu vaccine. Exhibit A: wanting to avoid flu shot side effects that “prove” they’ve caught influenza from the very thing meant to protect them.

Let us give it to you straight: Yes, you should probably get that flu shot you’ve been putting off.

But health experts want to remind you that the flu shot should probably be on your to-do list as well. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released a policy statement […]
Somewhere in the U.S. today, a child will find a loaded gun in a home. They won’t have to look hard. It will be unlocked and stored in an easily accessible place. The child will pick up the firearm, and soon enough, it will go off exactly like it’s supposed to. The bullet will strike […]
There’s a lot that goes into being a world-class extreme-sports photographer. You need a good eye, obviously, and plenty of high-quality equipment. You also need almost as much athleticism as the athletes you’re photographing.
