豐原醫院家醫科主任張敬仁表示,秋冬氣溫變化大,流感、新冠等呼吸道病毒進入活躍期,高齡者、慢性病患者、孕婦及幼兒感染後發生肺炎、住院或重症的風險相對較高;此外,肺炎鏈球菌感染對高齡及高風險族群也可能造成肺炎、菌血症、腦膜炎等嚴重併發症,提醒高風險族群應及早完成疫苗接種,以增加秋冬防護。
另今年成人公費肺炎鏈球菌疫苗,自8月10日起全面改以PCV20或PCV21接種,取代過去PCV13搭配PPV23的接種方式,公費對象包括65歲以上長者、55至64歲原住民,以及19至64歲侵襲性肺炎鏈球菌感染症(IPD)高風險族群,從未接種過肺炎鏈球菌疫苗者,可直接接種1劑PCV20或PCV21;過去僅接種PPV23、PCV13或PCV15者,則依既往接種種類及間隔時間,由醫師評估後銜接接種;若已完成符合規定的接種組合,則不需再重複接種。

Using single-cell sequencing and spatial transcript analysis, a research team at the University of Oklahoma found that pancreatic cancer cachexia (loss of muscle and fat) is closely related to the microenvironment formed by tumor cells, macrophages and cancer-related fibroblasts. These cell groups appear before obvious weight loss and are expected to be clues for early identification of high-risk patients.

Tainan Mayor Huang Weizhe announced that publicly funded influenza and COVID-19 vaccines will begin on October 1. Vaccine recipients can receive health coins ranging from 450 to 900 depending on the type of vaccine. The city government has prepared sufficient vaccines and established a reservation system. It calls on high-risk groups to vaccinate as soon as possible to reduce the risk of severe illness.

Publicly funded influenza and COVID-19 vaccines will be available from October 1, 2026. Nutritionist Gao Minmin recommends supplementing protein, zinc, and vitamin A before vaccination, taking vitamins C, D, E, and Omega-3 after vaccination, and avoiding foods high in oil, salt, and sugar to stabilize immune cells and enhance repair capabilities.

The National Taiwan University Cancer Center held a liver cancer health education exhibition to share the multi-specialty integrated care experience of three patients, including Mr. Wang who first took medication to shrink the tumor and then underwent surgery and survived for more than five years. Mr. Huang was discharged after three days of treatment with a single tissue morcellation knife due to his need for kidney dialysis. Ms. Yang switched to homeopathy due to her advanced age and risk of adjacent blood vessels, emphasizing that treatment requires personalization and teamwork.

Wu Yifan, an attending physician at the Department of Family Medicine at Taipei City United Hospital, pointed out that it takes about two weeks after influenza vaccination to produce sufficient antibodies, and called on the public to get vaccinated as early as possible during the epidemic season or before traveling abroad to avoid the protective window period. It is also recommended that high-risk groups consider vaccination against COVID-19 and Streptococcus pneumoniae vaccines, and is reminded to seek medical advice immediately if severe symptoms occur when seeking medical treatment overseas.

Health coins have been launched since October 1. After completing publicly funded health examinations, cancer screenings and vaccinations, you can get health coins, which can be exchanged for healthy food, discounts and gifts. Register before November 30 to participate in the lottery, and the top prize is an Apple Watch.
