This issue of Senior Spectrum is filled with plenty of information concerning the COVID-19 virus, contact information for vaccination signup, as well as information on Medical Scams associated with COVID and seniors in general. We strive to provide information that is current and relevant as health providers work to provide care, and resources to protect us.
As usual, we have great stories from our writers. Larry Weiss of the Center for Healthy Aging has a positive column on Aging with Dignity and Independence. Anne Pott is back with the series on Parkinson’s Disease, a four-part series that is informative, and packed with good data. Anne Vargas provides us a great column on Medical Alert Devices and selecting one that is right for you. And as usual, we provide our calendar pages that list virtual and in-person participation. Not all facilities are closed to the public. The City of Reno Parks and Recreation Department does have two locations open for classes and recreation activities.
