Healthier Together: Larimer County's Public Health Podcast by Larimer County Department of Health and Environment

Episode notes

What's up in public health this week?

We are right in the middle of respiratory virus season and with flu activity spiking, we asked Communicable Disease Epidemiologist, Abi Collingwood, to share what the current data looks like in Larimer County and how we can keep ourselves and others healthy. Why is there a respiratory virus season? What can you do to avoid the flu? Why are respiratory viruses a public health concern? Listen for answers to these questions and more.

January is also Radon Action Month. 50% of homes in Larimer County have harmful levels of radon. Environmental Health Planner, Lea Schneider, joined us to explain what radon is, how it impacts our health, and how you can test and mitigate your home.
