It’s true. 😂

Please go back to ACTUAL public health issues like rabies and tuberculosis.

You (public health) have been sold the lie about alleged “social determinants of health” so you can insert yourself into anything you feel like managing, and grow your department endlessly.

Do better and knock it off.

OK seriously. Stop doing the YWCAs bidding and focus on public health and not another one of their publicity stunts.

This has nothing to do with the mission of public health.

I feel like there are far too many employees in the public health dept if you can sit around and participate in virtue signaling shows. Maybe its time to downsize.

Again with the 💉💉💉…. Health doesn’t come out of a needle. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Measles continues to spread throughout the U.S. While Rock County has high measles vaccine coverage, there are still folks in our community who are at risk.

Everyone can play a role in preventing measles in Rock County by checking their vaccination status in the Wisconsin Immunization Registry, using common respiratory virus prevention, and by contacting their healthcare provider if they start to experience measles symptoms.

Visit the Center for Diseases and Control to learn more about measles and the current measles outbreak.

HOW TO STAY HEALTHY THIS FLU SEASON:

✅wash hands
✅ get good sleep
✅ stay hydrated
✅ eat nutritious food
✅ maintain an optimal weight
✅ fresh air and sunshine

❌ injections and syringes
❌ mysterious substances injected that can never be removed
❌ taking advice from the taxpayer-funded marketing arm/propaganda machines for insanely profitable pharmaceutical giants like Pfizer (aka “public health” departments)

In the winter months, we pass around more germs at work. Make sure you’ve gotten your annual flu vaccine and COVID booster and do what it takes to stop the spread. Stay home when you’re sick!

Because how else can we scare you, surveil you, and control you if you don’t use the government’s complimentary tests? 😂

Every home in the U.S. is now eligible to order an additional 4 free at-home COVID-19 test kits. If you didn’t order tests earlier this fall, you may place 2 orders for a total of 8 tests. Visit https://www.covid.gov/tests to learn more and order today.

So many questions RCPHD!! Do you have a stockpile to get rid of? Why is this necessary? Why can’t people go to the health dept to pick up if you are giving them away? Tests are readily available in pharmacies. Why on earth is the library giving out tests for an illness instead of their actual job of making books available to the public?

Looking for free COVID-19 tests? We’re working with Hedberg Public Library in Janesville to distribute at-home COVID-19 test kits. Stop by HPL to get yours!
