The diversity of our nation is one of our greatest strengths. The nearly five million Native Americans, across nearly 574 federally recognized tribes, in the United States possess a rich history that stretches back far before the founding of our country. In the month of November, we recognize their unique culture during National Native American Heritage Month. https://www.army.mil/article/240571
Each week throughout November we will be challenging you to point out the good you find across the installation. Maybe it was the friendly gate guard who greeted you with a smile and started your week off right; the cashier whose conversation made your day; the caregiver who was genuinely happy to see your child this morning. Or, maybe it was simply that your appointment went smoother and faster than you anticipated. So tell us, who has made your day, your week or even yo...ur year? Because positivity is contagious #30DaysOfThanks across Fort Leonard Wood.
With the onset of flu season it is good to know the similarities and differences between flu and COVID-19. COVID-19 seems to spread more easily than flu and causes more serious illnesses in some people. It can also take longer before people show symptoms and people can be contagious for longer. Signs and symptoms of COVID-19, different from flu, may include change in or loss of taste or smell. Social distancing, mask wearing and hand washing used to slow the spread of COVID-19 can also be effective in combating the spread of the influenza virus that causes flu.
