Real questions from health communities, answered with cited research from PubMed and Vellito's article corpus. Plain language, no medical advice. How this works.
Yes, measles cases increased in Galmudug State, Somalia, rising from an incidence of 4.9 per 10,000 people in 2023 to 8.1 per 10,000 in 2024.

Long COVID can cause lasting symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath, cognitive issues, and gastrointestinal problems, often persisting for months after infection.
Common COVID-19 symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue; watch for these and seek testing if they appear.
We pull real patient questions from public Reddit health communities (r/AskDocs, r/diabetes, r/menopause, etc.). Each question is rewritten into a generic medical question (no personal details), then answered by an AI using only cited sources from Vellito's article database and PubMed. A second AI independently scores each answer for accuracy and citation fidelity before publication. Answers below the safety threshold or touching emergency, dosing, or pediatric topics are queued for human review and never auto-published.
