Welcome to the Pulse Two-Point-Twenty-Six: In this episode, we look back on the stories and trends that rose to the top of the headlines and to the forefront of our minds in 2009.
And what was on our minds? For billions of people around the world, it was a pandemic year.
From the whirlwind weekend in April when many of us first heard about “Swine Flu,” H1N1 stayed in the headlines the rest of the year as we worried about what it was, how you caught it, and what could be done to prevent it. On the H1N1 Swine Flu Information Channel, icyou continues to bring you the latest updates on the signs and symptoms, vaccines, and spread of this pandemic strain of flu.
The news on it may have subsided in recent weeks, but icyou and its contributors will keep you informed of the latest developments as long as is needed.
And speaking of latest developments, the other major health story of 2009 has been a hot topic all year long – and it’s just getting started. Naturally, we’re talking about healthcare reform.
On the Barack Obama and Healthcare Reform Channel, you can watch videos directly from the White House in addition to the many differing perspectives on the healthcare reform issue. Our contributors also provide primers on the major legislation moving through Congress and, on icyou’s blog, we provide details on what’s expected next.
Healthcare reform will undoubtedly stay at the top of the headlines in 2010, and icyou will continue to bring you a broad spectrum of videos to keep you in the know.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg for the year that was. Medical breakthroughs from hospitals like the University of Michigan and the Journal of the American Medical Association, the latest health tips from around the globe, and much more can be found on icyou.
