The Cabinet of Health and Family Services is partnering with The Foundation For A Healthy Kentucky to encourage Kentuckians to improve immunity and overall health with a new campaign called “Raise Your Guard, Kentucky.” Data shows that chronic conditions have increased since the start of the pandemic. The campaign encourages people to take several steps such as eating well, moving more and keeping up with annual check-ups, screenings and immunizations. According to a statement about the campaign, Kentucky Commissioner For The Department For Public Health Dr. Steven Stack states that small healthy choices add up to a big positive impact. The campaign includes a video series featuring Kentuckians sharing why and how they stay healthy. Resources are available in several languages and can be found at RaiseYourGuardKY.org
