E-bikes are increasingly popular, but e-bike injuries are also increasing. A properly fitted and secure helmet can help reduce the risk of serious head injury. Before riding an e‑bike, use the 2‑V‑2 fit check: ✌️ 2 fingers above your eyebrows ✔️ V‑shaped straps around each ear ☝️ 2 fingers between the strap and your chin Florida law requires riders and passengers under 16 to wear a properly fitted helmet. No helmet may mean a citation or fine. E‑bikes can reach 20 to 28 mph, so consider a full‑coverage or reinforced helmet designed for higher speeds. Ride safely, and know where to go if an emergency happens: https://bit.ly/4h3OTnm #ebikesafety

As temperatures rise in Orlando, so does mosquito activity; making preventive measures more important than ever. While mosquito bites are an itchy inconvenience for the most part, some people develop a strong allergic reaction called skeeter syndrome that can lead to more serious symptoms. Learning to identify skeeter syndrome and knowing how to protect yourself from mosquitoes can help prevent the consequences of mosquito bites. Signs of skeeter syndrome include intense itching, swelling, blistering and soreness beyond just the bite area. People may even develop flu-like symptoms like fatigue, fever and swollen lymph nodes that can last several days. In rare cases, mosquito bites can also lead to a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis, which requires immediate medical attention. Symptoms such as throat swelling, wheezing, difficulty breathing or fainting after an insect bite mean you should go to the nearest emergency room or call 911. Severe reactions to mosquito bites are more common in children and people with compromised immune systems. Sometimes people only experience a strong reaction when bitten by a mosquito species they haven't encountered before. Skeeter syndrome and anaphylaxis can also happen if you are bitten by many mosquitoes in a short time. Here are a few tips to prevent skeeter syndrome and diseases caused by mosquitoes: -Avoid areas with standing water -Cover up and treat clothing -Use repellents as directed -Have screens for any open windows or doors At HCA Florida Downtown Emergency, we're here for you when the unexpected happens.

Students are heading back to school, and riding an e-bike means sharing the road and the responsibility with drivers, pedestrians and other cyclists. Here's how e-bike riders can help keep themselves and our community safe: 🚶 Slow down and yield to people walking. 🔔 Ring a bell or say ‘On your left’ before passing. 📱 Put your phone away. One earbud is legal, two are not. ⚠️ Skip wheelies and stunts. They can lead to arrest, bike confiscation and injuries. Ride safely, and know where to go if an emergency happens: https://bit.ly/4y6G9CW #ebikesafety
