## Resource

Congress just held its first-ever menopause hearing, demanding answers on federal spending and research — even as the FDA eases warnings on hormone therapies. Meanwhile, NIH prepares a major new study tracking rare vaccine side effects, possibly launching in October. CDC has merged flu and COVID teams to better handle outbreaks — no change to care or flu shot advice. And as weather swings wreak havoc on your body, experts say hydration, OTC meds, anti-inflammatory foods, and sleep are your best defenses.
