The week from May 25 to May 31, 2026, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation declared Tobacco Cessation Week.

The purpose of the week is to remind about the harmful effects of smoking on health and to support people who want to give up this habit. World No Tobacco Day was established by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1987 to draw global attention to the tobacco epidemic.

Smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable diseases.

You can always quit smoking. Take care of yourself!

A week of prevention of diseases of the endocrine system is taking place in Russia. It was timed to coincide with World Thyroid Day, which is celebrated on May 25.  Diseases of the endocrine system are becoming more common every year.  The main factors that lead to the development of endocrine disorders include: infectious diseases, hereditary factors, chronic diseases of other organs and systems, cardiovascular insufficiency, surgical interventions, and taking a number of medications.

Since hormones produced by the endocrine glands regulate the functioning of organs and systems, endocrine diseases disrupt metabolism and cause symptoms characteristic, for example, of skin diseases, kidneys, etc. There are many causes of thyroid disease, but 90% of thyroid diseases are caused by iodine deficiency.  The consumption of iodized salt helps to prevent endocrine disorders.

 Endocrine disease prevention measures often involve lifestyle choices that support overall health and hormonal balance. It is very important to consult with a medical professional for individual recommendations and regular checkups in order to monitor your health and identify any potential problems in a timely manner. We wish you good health!

Rospotrebnadzor warns that in 2026, the tick season began earlier than usual. The danger of encountering a tick is maximum in warm and humid weather, when the conditions for their activity are close to ideal. The best temperature is from +10 to +25C. In extreme heat, the activity of arthropods decreases, they hide from overheating in the shade, and become sluggish. Spring is the time of awakening and the beginning of tick activity, especially in the period from mid–April to May. Starved after hibernation, ticks are very active at this time of the year in search of food.                             

To avoid tick bites, it is necessary:

1. From the beginning of April to the middle of September, be careful when visiting tick habitats - in the country, in parks and squares, in the forest, in areas with tall grass.

2. When visiting these places, it is necessary to choose light, monophonic, closed clothing that fits snugly to the body, preventing ticks from crawling in, and use a headdress or hood.

3. Apply special protective agents – repellents.

4. Inspect clothes and body regularly for ticks.

Currently, there are vaccines against tick-borne encephalitis. Consult your doctor before vaccination. Take care of yourself!

From March 30 to April 5, 2026, the "Mother and Child Health Week (in honor of the Day of the Neonatologist on April 5)" is taking place. The doctors of the sanatorium "Beautifully join a significant information campaign and hold conversations and meetings with vacationers on the topic, popularizing a healthy lifestyle.

Health is the greatest value given to a person. It depends on the genetics of the parents, and only then on the individual's lifestyle, the environment, and medicine. The preservation of children's health is one of the main objectives of the state policy of the Russian Federation in the field of protecting the interests of childhood. Medical professionals remind us that it is necessary to prepare for the appearance of a child in the family long before the onset of pregnancy. Fetal development is affected by almost any diseases of the expectant parents, especially the mother. Therefore, medical consultations are absolutely necessary. 

Women's reproductive health depends on lifestyle. Therefore, timely detection and treatment of chronic diseases of internal organs is a condition for optimal development of the body, including reproductive function. The health of mother and child is an inseparable concept.

When planning a pregnancy, parents should give up smoking, alcohol and, of course, drugs. Also, future parents should regularly undergo a reproductive health check-up and preventive check-up, avoid stress and lead a healthy lifestyle. Remember that healthy parents are a healthy child. We wish you good health!

Tuberculosis is a problem that remains relevant. Infectious diseases remain one of the main threats to human health. The doctors of the Krasivo sanatorium are joining a significant information campaign. The purpose of the campaign dedicated to this day is to raise public awareness about the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis, and to increase the availability of diagnostic methods. Currently, tuberculosis is one of the most important social and biomedical problems. About one third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis affects people of different genders, ages, and social status.

World Tuberculosis Day is an opportunity to draw attention to the problems associated with this disease. Remember! Tuberculosis is curable with early detection: it is important to have an annual check-up with a medical examination, timely access to a doctor to monitor your health and continuous treatment of the disease only in a medical institution. The medical examination carried out in all medical institutions will help you with this.

Observing all the principles of a healthy lifestyle is the key to your health and longevity! Infectious Disease Prevention Week is a reminder that the health of each of us depends on our actions. Prevention, early diagnosis, and a responsible attitude to one's health help not only protect oneself, but also contribute to the health of the entire society. Let's take a step towards a world free of infectious diseases together! Take care of yourself and remember about tuberculosis prevention!

The week is aimed at informing the public about the methods of prevention of dental diseases. Good dental health reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and complications from chronic diseases.  Daily oral hygiene is extremely important for the whole body. Respiratory infections can occur when overgrown bacteria from the oral cavity travel down the respiratory system and settle in the lungs. Like bacteria that are inhaled into the lungs from the mouth, bacteria can also enter the tissues of the central nervous system via the mandibular nerve. 

People with diabetes should visit the dentist at least twice a year, as they are more prone to oral infections. Diabetics with dentures should pay maximum attention to the condition of their teeth. Dentures can cause ulcers, gum irritation, and can contribute to fungal infections.

Choose the right brush and paste, because oral health begins with clean teeth.

Studies confirm the advantage of using fluoride toothpastes for both adults and children from the age of two (with a specially calculated fluoride concentration according to age). Oral health begins with clean teeth. In addition to daily brushing at home, it is necessary to visit a dentist at least once a year. Take care of yourself!

This is an important initiative aimed at raising awareness about the disease, its prevention and diagnosis of hepatitis. The medical staff of the Krasivo sanatorium join a significant information campaign and conduct lectures, seminars and talks on the topic of prevention for vacationers and staff. Hepatitis C is an inflammation of the liver caused by a virus that can lead to serious health consequences. 

To minimize the risk of infection and protect others, it is recommended:

1. Avoid tattoos and piercings in non-certified areas; contact only professionals using sterile instruments.

2. Use only sterile or disposable hygiene items: razors, manicure supplies, toothbrushes and towels.

3. Use barrier protection to prevent infections.

4. Get tested for hepatitis C virus before planning pregnancy.

When do you need to be especially wary?

Although the disease is often latent, it can sometimes manifest itself: fatigue, weakness, heaviness in the right hypochondrium, nausea, decreased appetite. If you notice these symptoms, do not delay your visit to the doctor. Remember: the earlier the virus is detected, the more successful the therapy will be. Be attentive to your health and the health of others!
