The coronavirus vaccines are here and with it the beginning of the end of the pandemic—but you might not know that looking at cases in a hot spot like Michigan, where the state's public health system is overwhelmed and the governor has asked—though not demanded—that residents pause avoid in-person dining and school sports. To address this and other hot spots in America, Scott Gottlieb, the former FDA commissioner and board member for Pfizer, and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan appeared on Face the Nation this morning. Read on for the 6 big takeaways about COVID hot spots—and to ensure your health and the health of others, don't miss these Signs Your Illness is Actually Coronavirus in Disguise. 1 Michigan's Cases are Rising Dangerously Due to "a Number of Things" "What is driving the spike and infections in your state?" host Margaret Brennan asked Gov. Whitmer. "Well, a number of things, Margaret," she answered. "Number one, we kept our spread low for a long period of time. So we've got reservoirs of people that don't have antibodies. We have variants, a big presence of variants here in Michigan that are easier to catch and people are tired and they're moving around more." These are "the combination of things that is contributing to what we're seen as a large amount of community spread in Michigan right now." Keep reading to see what other hot spots might arise. 2 The Virus Expert Said Other Hot Spots Might Pop Up—And We Need to Target Them Gottlieb feels "we need to think about putting those resources"—like more vaccines and more people to administer them—"into hotspots," like Michigan. "It's been sort of a Hunger Games for vaccines amongst states. We need to think differently about this pandemic. If you look at all the planning for past pandemics, the flu planning that we've done in the past, even planning for bio-terrorism isn't so always contemplate searching resources into hot spots. It never perceived that there was going to be a confluent national epidemic, but there were going to be localized outbreaks that in fact is likely what we're going to see going forward. So we need to get in the habit of trying to search resources into those hot spots, to put out those fires and spread. It's not just Michigan right now, the same time, Great Lakes Region." 3 The Virus Expert Said Young People Were Now Getting Hit Hard, Which May Represent a Turning Point Cases in Michigan are "mainly starting to come down, they may be reaching a turning point. A lot of the cases are in younger people, people who haven't been eligible for vaccination. If you look at the cases about 15% increase in cases for those under the age of 18, a 50% increase of people between the age of 20 and 29 to 30% increase for people between the ages of 30 and 39. So they're occurring in groups that haven't been vaccinated." 4 Gov. Whitmer Said She'd Like the Federal Government to Send Her More Vaccine Doses "We are seeing a surge in Michigan, despite the fact that we have some of the strongest policies in place—mask mandates, capacity limits, working from home," said Whitmer. "We've asked our state for a two week pause. So despite all of that, we are seeing a surge because of these variants. And that's precisely why we're really encouraging them to think about surging vaccines under the state of Michigan." She praised the White House for their consistency but said an "adjustment" should be made. 5 The Virus Expert Said You Could Keep Schools Open—Under the Right Conditions Extra-curricular sports are being blamed for the spread of the disease. Shouldn't they be shut down? "What we've seen consistently through this whole pandemic is that the risk and the schools correlate with the risk and community. So if you're in a community that has relatively low prevalence and that's a lot of parts of the country right now, things are starting to look better across a lot of parts of the country. The risk in the schools is lower," said Gottlieb. "If you're in a community that has a high prevalence, like the Metro Detroit region, the risk in the schools is higher." He recommended those schools take a "pause."RELATED: This COVID Vaccine Has the Most Side Effects, Study Says 6 How to Stay Safe During This Pandemic Follow the public health fundamentals and help end this pandemic, no matter where you live—wear a face mask that fits snugly and is double layered, don't travel, social distance, avoid large crowds, don't go indoors with people you're not sheltering with (especially in bars), practice good hand hygiene, get vaccinated when it becomes available to you, and to protect your life and the lives of others, don't visit any of these 35 Places You're Most Likely to Catch COVID.

Vitamin supplements are marketed as easy ways to provide your body with the nutrients it needs without the hassle of eating the perfect diet—but did you know some are the unhealthiest supplements you shouldn't take? If you're on a daily vitamin supplement regimen, you may assume you're doing something healthy for your body. But in some cases, you're doing the exact opposite."Numerous investigations show the alleged benefits are unproven and in the worst cases, vitamins and supplements can be harmful," says Dr. Mike Varshavski, DO. Want to make sure you're not putting yourself at risk with your "healthy" supplements? Here are seven of the unhealthiest supplements you shouldn't take. Read on—and to ensure your health and the health of others, don't miss these Signs Your Illness is Actually Coronavirus in Disguise. 1 You Should Be Careful Before Taking Calcium Calcium helps keep your bones strong and your heart pumping. But to be absorbed properly, calcium must be accompanied by the right amount of Vitamin D. And if it's not? The extra calcium may settle in your arteries instead of helping your bones. A study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association analyzed 2,700 people who took calcium supplements over 10 years and concluded that excess calcium caused buildup in the aorta and other arteries. Calcium is essential, but it's healthier to get it directly from your diet. 2 Kava May Have Side Effects Kava is a natural supplement used to treat anxiety and insomnia. "Kava supplements may have a small effect on reducing anxiety, but they have been linked to a risk of severe liver injury," according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH). While it may reduce anxiety, too much kava can lead to liver damage or failure.The supplement also may cause "digestive upset, headache, dizziness, and other side effects," states the NCCIH. If you choose to take kava for anxiety, be careful about your dosage and how long you regularly take the supplement to prevent permanent damage.RELATED: Unhealthiest Habits on the Planet, According to Doctors 3 Soy Isolate Can Help, but Has Issues "Soy products are used for menopausal symptoms, bone health, improving memory, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol levels," according to the NCCIH. Women who are menopausal or perimenopausal may take soy isolate supplements to ward off the symptoms, such as hot flashes. But be wary of the long-term effects of these supplements. "Long-term use of soy isoflavone supplements might increase the risk of endometrial hyperplasia (a thickening of the lining of the uterus that may lead to cancer)," the NCCIH states."It's okay to eat whole soy foods — like soy milk, edamame, and tofu — in moderation, several times per week," says Katherine D. McManus, MS, RD, LDN from the Brigham and Women's Hospital. However, she warns to stay away from soy isolate supplements or foods made from textured vegetable protein or soy protein isolate due to their negative health effects. 4 Red Yeast Rice is Not Always Recommended Red yeast rice claims to help lower LDL cholesterol levels (the "bad" cholesterol) and prevent heart disease, similar to statins. However, these supplements are associated with a host of potential side effects. "Like statins, red yeast rice can cause exactly the same side effects as statins, and that includes muscle, liver, and kidney problems," says Dr. Marvin M. Lipman, M.D., FACP, FACE from Scarsdale Medical Group.A study published in Pharmacy and Therapeutics analyzed the benefits and risks of red yeast rice. It concluded the supplement is "not recommended for patients with hypercholesterolemia" and "has not been shown to be a safe alternative to statins for patients with hyperlipidemia." If you're concerned about your cholesterol, eat healthy, exercise, and consult your doctor before taking any supplements. 5 Ginkgo Sometimes Doesn't Mix Well With Others Ginkgo is an herbal supplement used as a natural treatment for anxiety, dementia, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. It's also been associated with increased memory function. However, if you're taking other supplements or medications, the side effects of ginkgo can quickly outweigh the benefits. "Ginkgo may lower blood pressure, so taking it with blood pressure medications may cause blood pressure to drop too low," according to experts at the PennState Hershey Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. The supplement may also "raise the risk of bleeding, especially if you take blood-thinners, such as warfarin (Coumadin), clopidogrel (Plavix), and aspirin."Ginkgo also raises and lowers blood sugar levels so stay away from it if you have diabetes. Consult your doctor if you're on any medications or other supplements before taking ginkgo. 6 Beta Carotene Is a No-Go for Smokers Beta carotene is a popular supplement because it works as "an antioxidant and an immune system booster," according to Kaiser Permanente. But if you're a smoker or have an increased risk for lung cancer, you're advised to stay away from synthetic beta carotene supplements at all costs."Use of beta-carotene has been associated with an increased risk of lung cancer in people who smoke or who have been exposed to asbestos," warns the Mayo Clinic. A study published in Nicotine and Tobacco Research analyzed male smokers who took beta carotene supplements. The study concluded that the "supplementation group had significantly higher risk of developing lung cancer in all categories of tar content." If you use tobacco products or are at high risk for lung cancer, don't include beta carotene with your daily supplements. 7 St. John's Wort Does Not Interact Well With Antidepressants St. John's wort is an herbal supplement that helps with sleep disorders and may curb mild anxiety or depression. However, if you're already on medication for depression or anxiety, it's best to stay away."St. John's wort has been associated with very serious and potentially dangerous interactions with many common drugs," according to the Cleveland Clinic. "St. John's wort can weaken how well other drugs work, including antidepressants, birth control pills, cyclosporine (an anti-rejection drug), digoxin (a heart drug), HIV drugs, cancer medications, and blood thinners such as Coumadin."If you mix St. John's wort with anti-depression medications, you may experience a dangerous increase in serotonin levels, called serotonin syndrome. Consult your doctor before you take St. John's wort or any other supplement.
