A depression diagnosis that warrants treatment or treatment change, needs at least one of the first two questions endorse as positive (little pleasure, feeling depressed) indicating the symptom has been present more than half the time in the past two weeks.

 

In addition the tenth question about difficulty at work or home or getting along with others should be answered at least "somewhat difficult".

 

When a depression diagnosis has been made patient preferences should be considered, especially when choosing between treatment recommendations of antidepressant treatment and psychotherapy.

As part of the response to the Zika outbreak, CDC, in collaboration with state, local, tribal, and territorial health departments, established a pregnancy registry for comprehensive monitoring of pregnancy and infant outcomes following possible Zika virus infection. The registry is an active surveillance system of pregnant women with laboratory evidence of possible Zika virus infection in the 50 US states and DC, and in the US territories. On May 20, 2016, CDC released detailed information about the registry and will initiate weekly reporting of the number of pregnant women followed in the registry.

The world continues to deal with COVID-19 and herd immunity is not reached and skepticism, resistance and hesitation about vaccines continues representing a major obstacle. During the first few months of the vaccination effort, filmmaker Chris Newberry and his team followed a diverse set of health professionals as they gained the trust of at-risk communities across Minnesota. The resulting documentary is a tribute to the doctors, nurses, organizers and influencers who are embracing community-led efforts to overcome vaccine doubts.

Watch the conversation with the film's creators and a panel of experts:

Our partners at NRC RIM have put together a series of discussion guides for clinicians, community groups, and community health workers in English and Spanish for the documentary can be found here.
