HANTAVIRUS AWARENESS

The Ghanaian Community Health Clinic would like to encourage our community to stay informed and take precautions against Hantavirus, a rare but serious illness spread mainly through contact with infected rodents and their droppings.

Symptoms may start like the flu and can quickly become severe:
• Fever
• Fatigue
• Muscle aches
• Headache
• Nausea or vomiting
• Shortness of breath
• Chest tightness

Prevention Tips:
-Keep homes and storage areas clean
-Seal holes and entry points for rodents
-Store food properly
-Avoid sweeping dry rodent droppings — use disinfectant and wet cleaning methods
-Wear gloves and masks during cleanup

Early medical attention is important, especially if symptoms worsen or breathing becomes difficult.

At the Ghanaian Community Health Clinic, we believe that education and prevention are key to protecting our families and community.

Your Health, Our Priority. ❤️

Black maternal health disparities are rooted in systemic injustices that shape access to care—both access to maternity facilities in their communities and access to culturally responsive providers who honor Black women’s lived experiences.

Between 2000 and 2020, three South Side hospitals closed their obstetrics units, reducing labor and delivery capacity by more than half and creating significant barriers to timely, quality care. Today, only four hospitals on the South Side of Chicago provide maternity services.

As we close out Black Maternal Health Week, we uplift the maternal health providers and advocates leading the way to close the mortality gap in Chicago. Through community-centered care, health education, and policy change, they are working to ensure Black women receive the care they deserve.
