During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we recognize the millions of people living with or beyond a breast cancer diagnosis, along with the families, friends, and healthcare professionals who support them. Their stories remind us why breast cancer awareness, recommended screenings, advances in treatment, and continued support matter.

Carbon monoxide is often called the "silent killer" because you can't see it, smell it, or taste it. This dangerous gas can build up inside a home when fuel-burning appliances or equipment malfunction or are used improperly. Exposure can cause serious illness and even death.
As colder weather approaches, check your carbon monoxide detectors, have your fuel-burning heating equipment inspected, and review the safety tips in this graphic.
If your carbon monoxide alarm sounds, get everyone outside into fresh air immediately and call 911. A few simple precautions can help protect your family!
