He helped expand Health Coverage to 200,000 more kids and upgraded pediatric care infant mortality rates dropped to record lows. And as mayor, Mike Bloomberg always championed Reproductive Health for women. So when you hear Mike Bloomberg on health care. Mrb this is america. We can certainly afford to make sure that everybody that needs to see a doctor can see a doctor, everybody that needs medicines to stay healthy can get those medicines. Nurse you should know, he did it as mayor, hell get it done as president. Mrb im Mike Bloomberg and i approve this message. And were back at. Heres a live look at the sear this morning.

With the most serious ski and snowboard injuries from every town area resort are treated as kind of the ski season really picks up. Its pretty common for our facility to see these really on a daily basis. Doctor tim pence medical director of the renowned acute Rehabilitation Center sees the worst of the injuries fracture to the pelvis fracture, the reds, a major head injury concussions. And more of the major people fractures he gave us a good prescription for prevention. Know where the trees are know where the tree wells are know where the rocks are. And above and beyond not know where your other writers and your other skiers are. Both up and down the mountain doctor pitt says about 70 of those who get seriously injured are experienced skiers and snowboarders he says the popularity of helmets in recent years has reduced traumatic brain injuries by 30 to 50 what he also points out most helmets are rated for collisions of no more than 15 Miles Per Hour watch your speed its always easier to go a little bit slower. And get more runs on them out something to keep in mind as the forecast from us is new snow in the coming days, the soft variety that will attract skiers and snowboarders of all levels up to these mountains in great numbers once again.
