Vaccination update
Helios moving closer to opening clinic for Long COVID19 recovery
New treatment for tinnitus
The pandemic is not over! There is hope that life can emerge into our new and better normal though, this is not the time to let down our guard. We still need to social distance, avoid large groups, and wear masks. This virus is super wily and can produce a fourth wave of infection before we have enough Coloradans vaccinated. Helios is getting closer to full vaccination among its staff. Follow vaccination recommendations from the Boulder County Health Department. They have a summary of all the providers of COVID19 Vaccine with links to each.

Vaccine Updates
While Helios does not carry the vaccine. Here are the currently vaccine eligible groups
Individuals who are 70 years old or older
Individuals who are 65-69 years old
PK-12 educators and staff : Contact your school/district
Child care workers in licensed child care programs: Contact your program director.
There is a website that has been designed to register you for a vaccine from pharmacies that have extra last minute vaccines available. In cases that they have no shows or cancellations due do getting a vaccine somewhere else before their appointment. The website is HiDrB.com (This is not Helios’ Dr Brunschwig)
Colorado Covid Care- Treatment for long COVID
Helios is moving to start a clinic within a clinic for COVID19 long haulers, those who have lasting ailments after acute COVID19. We will keep you posted as our Colorado Covid Care clinic develops. For now if you know someone who has long COVID19 please have them get in touch with us.
New Treatment for Tinnitus
Tinnitus is a frustrating condition as few treatments are successful. We are delighted to announce that we are having success with an infusion series of Myer’s cocktail and Alpha lipoic acid. We recommend checking an intracellular glutathione level prior to starting an IV series. If you have questions you can enquire with the Helios staff or book an appointment with either of our practitioners to get started.
