To ensure these families get the benefits they are entitled to and the honor they deserve. Dana young has our back and she has yours. Flu season is laura its here. Flu season is upon us and by now, youve probably heard the popular nasal spray flu vaccine is not recommended for kids this year but there are other changes to the vaccine that you should know about, too. Dr. Jo breaks it all down. Good morning to you. Good morning. Laura lets start with the the nasal was always a better option for them. Are doctors doing anything to ease the pain for these kids . Theres lots of things that you can do, laura. One of them is this. Can you see those . Those are bubbles. Laura distraction. Distraction and it can help them to breathe more deep sole some other things that you might want to do for the infants, breastfeed or give them some sugar water, hold them upright, have them lie down on the table makes it theres also something that you can do which kind of distracts the pain. Touch the area where the shot is going to be. What youre seeing here, this is at st. Josephs children. They have an entire room set up to try to reduce the pain so you can visually stimulate them, have them look at something, child life head distraction is better than when we try to distract them. They say the last thing you want to hurt that bad. That means it is going to hurt. It preps them up. Other things you can do is some sort of a topical anesthetic. There are things that you can sell over the counter. They take 30 to 60 minutes. Those are be helpful. Interesting thing here, they were saying cold. I know a lot of people will use the cold vapor, especially when you pierce your ears and do that. For younger children, sometimes they perceive that more as pain so they that helps them but it may help the older child that may have that needle phobia. But right now, for now, we dont have the one that goes under the skin for children. All we have are those shots this year. Laura we hate it for them, too. We know the more they tense up, the more its going to hurt in the end. Yes. Laura lets talk about some changes to this years vaccine. Theyre saying this flu season is going to be a little different, right . Right. Youre not going to have the that this year but its still on the market so it might still be available if that is your last resort but theyre saying dont use it because it was so ineffective . The past. The other thing is theres a new vaccine out for 65 and older. Its been used in europe forever but what its trying to do is boost that immune reaction that the older people may not have. You know, as much of that response as a younger person laura lets talk about the flu season. Its earlier and earlier, so it seems. Can you get the flu shot too early . Thats a great question. Youll have people argue back and forth. Its really most effective in a sixmonth period. If you think about when flu peaks here, its usually in february, right . But it can happen early. It can happen as early as october. We have snow birds, folks mixing into the community so it can what the cdc does recommend is to get it in early fall. So you probably want to start thinking about it now if you havent gotten it already. You know, i usually try not to wait past october. Laura sure is bad once it comes around. Thank you. Thank you. Russell 7 34 right now and local charter Fishing Companies worried about the damage waste water runoff caused after hurricane hermine. Theyre worried about the damage thats been done to the fish.

He said why arent these things watched more closely . How do you do that . I guess at this point, the system is not nearl it could be. Back to you. Russell thanks. See you later. Laura st. Josephs Childrens Hospital is turning to technology to ease younger patients fears. Theres an app called unmonsters. The app was designed by a tampa based firm set within the hospital and it encourages players to wrangle four monsters and gather medical power ups along the way.

Youre driving, hear the Emergency Vehicles and then you see the lights in the Rearview Mirror. Laura so what do you do . Tpd officer explains in this weeks traffic tip tuesday. Dave got some rain on the radar. I know. First thing this morning. Its really in the Hernando County area moving, lets say from bay port into weeki wachee. Weeki wachee has the now. Its about to end in bay port. It should weaken as it moves south and east. A couple more showers along the coastline to the south. Well show you those plus the well show you those plus the seve today, technology is changing. Homes are changing. Lives are changing. And all those changes take energy. At duke energy, were changing too, giving you new ways to control your power use and stay in the know. For smarter Energy Choices every day. So no matter how things change, were always here. Hernando county. Thats what i want to point out to you is that in Hernando County, were seeing some of the heaviest of that rainfall coming down. But i want to start with this. This skytower radar, of course. Weeki wachee along 19, theres your heavy shower. Theres tropical downpour. Notice how it extends as well into 50s so highway 50 moving east of 19, dealing with that heavier shower. This. Maybe one, thats about it. Weve also got a quick shower near spring hill at this hour. Further south, notice popping up in the past couple of minutes, a quick shower just to the west of largo. These little towering, cumulus clouds. Theyre very isolated. You drop a quick shower in a couple of neighborhoods and they start to fall apart. Well see a few more along the coastline. Just be aware of that. Its not going to cause a big into the afternoon hours, everything at that point will have shifted much further inland so its not going to be a big deal. Look at the temps. Lower 70s inland, upper 70s along the coast. St. Petersburg at 80 degrees and the weather pattern not going to change much. We have a weak area of High Pressure over here, tiny onshore flow. Thats whats helping to spark off tiny, coastal showers this morning which will then shift inland this afternoon in in eastern polk county and along highway 27. Southward to highlands county, you got the best chance of, again, picking up the heaviest storms later today. Two tropical systems to talk about. Here is tropical depression number 13. Tropical storm carl which, by the way, is forecast to become a hurricane down the road. Right now its still dealing with some drier air. Disorganized on satellite and as it works toward the westnorthwest, its going to start to pick up intensity the next few days. Here are the islands. Its going to come nowhere near the islands. In fact, the only land mass that may be impacted by the storm would be the island of bermuda which is right here as it makes that turn toward the northeast. If it takes this path, by saturday morning, maybe some bermuda but notice how far away it stays from the lower 48 and tropical depression 13 stays even further away. Watch this. This is immediately going to take a hard turn toward the north and the west once it gets up here. No chance that its coming our way which, when i say our way, i mean the lower 48 which is good. High temperatures today, close to 90 degrees. Coastal showers this morning like were seeing popup and you radar apps. Then theyll move inland during the afternoon. Next seven days, pretty much the same thing. 30 rain chances along the coast. 40 to 50 inland. Fall officially starts on thursday. I know that but its still going to be hot and humid. Straight through this upcoming weekend. Vanessa thanks. We have a check of the roadways right now. We do have a crash, looks like its newly moved to the side. It was blocking a right lane so this camera look right now is going to be along 75 south of fowler avenue, southbound direction. Th lane but theyve completely moved to the shoulder at this point. We are in the red here, 28 minutes to get from 275 to i4 along 75 southbound. Its 25 minutes of a drive coming from Pinellas Bayway to kennedy boulevard and then 13 between Branch Forbes and 75 if youre travelling i4 westbound. Be careful out there. Its been awhile but we have to get back in the swing of things. Traffic tip tuesday. Youre driving, you hear a siren, you look in the Rearview Mirror and you see the flashing lights and it is a fire truck or maybe its a police car. Theyre coming up behind you pretty quick sole what do you do . Weve touched on the topic briefly in other segments but were going to flush it out a little more with officer roadway with the tampa police department. We missed you. Thanks for coming back. Thank you and happy tuesday to everyone. Vanessa happy tuesday to you. First of all, i like how were going to flush it you do and then what do you do after you clear the way . So tell us, first of all, how you clear the way for the Emergency Vehicles. Thank you so much for doing this topic. My lights and sirens, every day that i work, im chasing down speeders and theres no doubt a lot of people out there have no idea what to do when an Emergency Vehicle comes up behind them. What we want you to do, the law is pretty clear. Heres the scenario. You dont know whats going on. The law says yield to the rightofway to the Emergency Vehicle and immediately proceed to the position parallel and as close to as reasonable to the closest edge of the curb of the rightofway. Thats an earful. Okay . Basically what that means is get out of the way. No. Im joking. No. What that means is, as the Emergency Vehicle is coming up, theres a lot of chaos going on. A lot of people are looking around, dont know what to do. Theyre slowing down, theyre speeding all over the place and basically what the law is saying is, when you see that Emergency Vehicle, you want to go over, move over to the closest edge or the closest curb and go to that side and allow the Emergency Vehicle to go through. Now, again, going over to the curb allows that vehicle to get through there. It is just being safe also. The Emergency Vehicle, these guys are trained to proceed as traffic and Everything Else so were counting on the vehicles that are driving to hear that siren or see the emergency lights and to move over. Okay . And to move over as quickly and safely as possible. But what happens is, that Emergency Vehicle is coming up. A lot of people dont hear the siren or see it until that Emergency Vehicle is right up on them and thats where the confusion comes in. When that vehicle is on them, they freak out. They start swerving all over the road and everything. Remain calm. Rememb, sees you and just pull over as quickly as you can and as safely as you can and the law also says to stop. You pull over and you stop and allow that Emergency Vehicle to go by. Thats not always the case. When people dont see the Emergency Vehicle until the very last second, its very difficult for them to stop. We dont want you to slam on brakes, okay . Just move over if you can and allow that Emergency Vehicle to go through. Vanessa im going to stop you briefly because you kind of alluded to this. Theyre trained to perceive you and maybe see where you might be going but its always god to signal which direction youre going to be turning toward, right . Thats a great point. Yes. Your turn signal. If youre going to move to the right or to the left, if you put on your turn signal, that helps us out tremendously because were really trying to anticipate which way youre going to go. That turn signal allows us to know where youre going to go and allows us to go by very safely. So that is vanessa so here is the followup question and i think this is one that maybe stumps folks. What do you do after the vehicle passes by you . Thats a good one. You want to resist the temptation to get behind that Emergency Vehicle and follow them through traffic, okay . Vanessa clearing the way for you. Stop until the vehicle passes. Dont jump in behind that vehicle. Its actually against the law. Behind that Emergency Vehicle as that vehicle travels, okay . A lot of people, believe it or not, will want to get right behind the fire truck or the police car and they say, this is my opportunity to get through traffic and they will follow the vehicle but that is against the law and its very dangerous. Vanessa all right. See, i think that 500 feet, im not sure a whole lot of folks know that. Let me give you an idea what 500 feet is. Its a long ways back, okay . You have a lot of room. 500 feet is a lot. Vanessa and then give your that. Good tips. Thank you so much, officer roy. Thank you very much. Vanessa good to see you again. We missed you. Thank. Vanessa are we going to break or charley . Lets get to charley. Its been awhile since ive talked to you, too. Charley he know. Good day, vanessa. Well done there. I always love that segment, too.
