What time is it?? It's back to school time!!! In this episode of the CHEcast, we speak to Dr. Patrice Little about all things sexual health, especially within the college demographic! According to the Centers for Disease Control, nearly 50 percent of the 20 million new STIs diagnosed each year are among young people between the ages of 15–24 years, coining it the name of the “Silent Epidemic”. A large percentage of these cases occur among college students, who often underestimate the risks of having unprotected sex. Have any questions about your risks, safe sex practices, or how to get tested? Tune in to this week's episode! We also touch on Dr. Little's work to address disparities in healthcare and the founding of NP Student Magazine!

As the COVID-19 pandemic began to unravel, we saw an increase in barriers to abortion access due to the widespread shutdown of clinics across the nation. Even at a time when healthcare was limited due to social distancing measures, politicians, such as Governor Greg Abbott, made receiving healthcare even more challenging by deeming abortion as "non-essential" and passing bills, such as SB8, during the 87th Texas Legislative Session. In this episode of the CHEcast, we talk to Kat, a public health champion, abortion rights activist, and member of Buckles Bunnies Fund—an organization established during the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic to fund abortions and keep them accessible.  Listen to this week's episode to get a deep dive as to how COVID-19 impacted abortion access, learn about Gov. Greg Abbott's plan for abortion, and find ways that you can support Buckle Bunnies Fund or participate in combatting SB8!

In the last 50 years, we have experienced two big pandemics, the HIV/AIDS crisis of the 1980s-1990s, and the current pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2. While these two viruses may be different in transmission mode and in the symptoms they generate, they do have important similarities: the fear instilled in the population, stigma, and politicization. In this week's episode of the CHECast, epidemiologist, Mireya Treviño, takes a deep dive into each of these pandemics, how they began, how society responded, and the disproportionate impact each crisis had on marginalized communities.  Featuring: Mireya Treviño *DISCLAIMER: Views are our own and do not reflect those of the Center for Health Empowerment* Want to get started on PrEP?
