HOPE Across the Globe, Inc.

HOPE Across the Globe, Inc. Providing HOPE for those living with or at high risk of exposure to HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C. The organization is headed by Chief Medical Officers Pablo M.

The organization is currently serving the northeast Florida, with offices in Jacksonville, FL, Port Orange, FL, and opening soon in Saint Augustine, FL. Pella, MD and Ivan Guerrero, MD who are both infectious disease specialists and the Chief Executive Officer, Vicki-lynne Gloger. Dr. Pella and Dr. Guerrero provide inpatient/outpatient care for patients diagnosed with HIV and/or AIDS on a daily ba

sis. The group has provided funding for testing of local high risk populations. Jacksonville, FL has the third highest HIV/AIDS rate per capita in the United States . In 2011 there were 2,507 HIV cases identified in Duval County, as reported by the CDC. We are hopeful that with increased awareness of the improved treatments for those living with HIV, along with increased educational campaigns, increasing efforts to stop maternal/fetal transmission, and new testing procedures, we can help reduce the HIV/AIDS population in our area and “across the globe.” Stepping up the efforts to reduce the incidence of this disease must be a role for all to take part in.

☀️ MEDICATION & EXTREME HEAT: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ⚠️
Did you know your daily medication could make extreme heat dangerous for you?
Many common prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs change how your body handles high temperatures. They can block your ability to sweat, cause rapid dehydration, or make your skin highly sensitive to sunlight.
💊 High-Risk Medications Include:

* Heart & Blood Pressure: Diuretics, beta-blockers, and ACE inhibitors.
* Mental Health: Antidepressants, antipsychotics, and ADHD stimulants.
* Over-the-Counter: Allergy antihistamines and decongestants.

🛑 Dangerous Side Effects:

* Heat Stroke: Your body loses its ability to cool itself down.
* Severe Dehydration: Certain pills flush water out of your system too fast.
* Sun Hypersensitivity: Chemical reactions can cause rapid, severe sunburns.

🛡️ How to Stay Safe:

* Check Labels: Look for heat or sun sensitivity warnings on your bottles.
* Consult Experts: Ask your doctor or pharmacist about your specific risks.
* Hydrate Constantly: Drink plenty of water before you even feel thirsty.
* Stay Cool: Limit outdoor activities during peak heat hours.

Take a moment to check your medicine cabinet today. A quick conversation with your physician or pharmacist could save your life this summer.
