Cases of whooping cough are rising, not only on Long Island but across the United States. Allied Physicians Group pediatrician, Dr. Eric Levene even stresses the severity of the illness to Newsday Media Group, “It can last for weeks on end, even with treatment” and also states that the disease, known as pertussis, is sometimes called "the 100-day cough.” With cases increasing rapidly, you might be wondering how you can protect yourself and your family. Doctors say vaccinations and boosters are key to avoiding serious illness from whooping cough. To learn more about the uptick in whooping cough, visit https://bit.ly/4h8xh80.

Allied Foundation’s Diaper Giveaway was a success last week! Our foundation helped over 100 families by providing diapers and wipes to families in need. This diaper drive brings awareness to those who sometimes go without the basic necessities to care for their child. With 1 in 2 families experiencing diaper need across America, it is crucial we spread awareness and help those in need. We are thrilled our foundation could help such an important cause!
