Both stomach pain and nausea have many causes. But what about when you have both at the same time? Although there are still many conditions that can cause stomach pain and nausea at the same time, some are more common than others. Most of these conditions aren't an emergency, and will often go away on their own. But if your symptoms persist — especially if they return after you eat — or your stomach pain or nausea are severe, call a doctor. Learn possible causes of concurrent stomach pain and nausea, and how the causes are treated. Some conditions that cause stomach pain and nausea come on suddenly and may go away quickly, while others may be long-term. Some are also more severe than others. Your other symptoms may help you determine the underlying cause. Indigestion Indigestion is also called upset stomach. It can be caused by eating too fast or eating certain foods, drinking too much alcohol or caffeine, or stress. Sometimes, indigestion is a sign of an underlying gastrointestina...

Emergency vaccinations - Doctors Without Borders

The key to ending this outbreak was informing and engaging with the community, reducing the stigma associated with Ebola, providing care closer to where people lived, and adapting aid to what people identified as their most urgent health needs. Once they felt more involved in the Ebola response, they were more likely to trust the vaccine During DRC's eleventh outbreak, centered in Équateur province, MSF supported community-based outreach and care that complemented vaccination efforts led by other partners. This time, the outbreak was brought under control within five months. Having a licensed Ebola vaccine was critical, but only as part of a more comprehensive approach. Reaching more people Since first responding to cholera epidemics in sub-Saharan Africa in the 1980s, MSF has been one of the lead organizations working to prevent and treat the disease. Cholera outbreaks happen in many of the settings where we operate, including remote villages, overcrowded cities, refugee c...

- June 20, 2019

Video Player Close DAR ES SALAAM, June 20 (Xinhua) -- Tanzanian health authorities on Thursday allayed fears of an Ebola outbreak, saying response strategies are in place.

- August 13, 2021

Share on Pinterest Flu shots will be available soon in the United States, and health experts hope people will get vaccinated early. Luis Alvarez/Getty Images Health experts are expressing concerns that this fall's flu season in the United States is coinciding with another surge in COVID-19 cases. They say they hope vaccine hesitancy and fatigue won't carry over from COVID-19 into the flu season. Flu shots will begin to be distributed in August and will continue through November. After influenza was nearly nonexistent in 2020, health authorities in the United States are gearing up for a flu season that coincides with the circulation of the Delta strain of COVID-19. Experts say that having both influenza and the Delta variant active could pose some challenges this fall. "We infectious disease people and public health folks are very concerned.

WHO advisory committee recommends Ebola vaccination for pregnant women - Healio

- February 25, 2019

Carleigh Krubiner WHO’s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization has released interim guidance supporting the immunization of pregnant and lactating women against Ebola — but only those who are health care or front-line workers — in areas neighboring the Democratic Republic of the Congo, or DRC. The recommendation includes three types of experimental vaccines. “Such vaccination should be implemented as part of a randomized clinical trial and in compliance with [good clinical practice] and informed consent,” the group wrote. “Since these three new candidate vaccines are nonreplicating or replication deficient, pregnant and lactating women should be included into the clinical trial protocols.” In their guidance, SAGE also supported the recommendations of an ethics committee in the DRC to vaccinate pregnant women in outbreak areas using Merck’s V920 live-replicating vaccine . SAGE also acknowledged the ethics committee’s decision to vaccinate lactating women and children a...
