• Catholic Health Mobile Outreach Bus at ECML.
• Need to hire a professional in the area? Patch has a list for you!
• Happenings and more!

But first, today's weather:

Sun, some clouds. High: 40, low: 26.

Here are the top four stories today in Three Village:

1. Save the date for the Catholic Health Mobile Outreach Bus that will be in the parking lot of Emma Clark Memorial Library on Jan. 19. Free health services will be offered from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Registration and a library card are not required. The Three Village Patch will remind all of this event as it approaches. (Emma Clark Library)
   
2. If you are looking for a cleaning professional and other house services, why not hire a provider in the Three Village area to support small businesses? If you would like to meet some service providers in the community and learn what they offer, you can visit the Three Village Patch link to check who is on our list and find the right business that suits your needs today. (Three Village Patch)
3. CVS and Walgreens pharmacies are limiting the sales of some children’s medication. Walgreens allows the purchase of six pain relief medications over the counter. CVS is selling only two per person. The shortage is due to the supply chain issues caused by the "tripledemic," which consists of the rise of flu, RSV and COVID-19 cases. (LI News12)
4. A teenager from Long Island is fighting a rare disease. Lafora is a condition that affects only eighty people worldwide and consists of severe myoclonus epilepsy episodes. Click here to learn her story, and if you would like to help with medical expenses, a GoFundMe page has been set up with a goal of $150,000. (LI News12)
