Today is World Osteoporosis Day!

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and fragile so that they break easily – even as a result of a minor fall, a bump, a sneeze, or a sudden movement. Fractures caused by osteoporosis can be life-threatening and a major cause of pain and long-term disability.

Five steps which you can take for healthy bones and a fracture-free future are:

1: Exercise regularly to keep your bones and muscles moving
2: Ensure your diet is rich in bone-health nutrients
3: Avoid negative lifestyle habits
4: Discuss with your doctor if you have risk factors
5: Get tested and treated if needed

To assess your risk of osteoporosis, you can click here: https://riskcheck.osteoporosis.foundation/

Please make an appointment with your doctor if you have any concerns about your bone health.

HOW TO ACCESS YOUR COVID-19 DIGITAL CERTIFICATE

One way to show your vaccination status is through your online Medicare account or the Express Plus Medicare app.

To access online, you’ll need to log in to your MyGov account, which is linked to Medicare. Here you can find your Immunisation History under the ‘History and Statements’ tab.

On the Express Pluss Medicare app, you can view your Immunisation History under Services.

Your digital vaccination certificate will only be issued once you have received all doses of your COVID-19 vaccine.

Friday August 6 is Jeans for Genes Day.

1 in 20 kids face a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer, cystic fibrosis, and life-threatening metabolic disorders - most of which are poorly understood and have no specific treatments or cure.

To join this worthwhile cause, you can encourage your friends, family and work colleagues to wear denim for a day and donate.

The Jeans for Genes campaign raises funds for research in genetic diseases and gene therapy.
