⚜️We are so excited to have Rüya from Canada join us as part of our CERI Youth Program. Rüya joins us as a CERI Research Team Member, Mentee, and Ambassador-Canada. She is 12 years old and always had an interest in biology and medicine. Rüya believes that becoming a volunteer for CERI will aid in cancer awareness and prevention, along with educating people about the disease in order to catch and effectively treat cancer in the earlier stages of its development.
We are truly excited to have Rüya in our team and we can't wait to share with you her work on various cancers as well as cancer prevention methods starting from September.

🎉Welcome to CERI, Rüya - we are glad to have you onboard!

⚜️CERI Gençlik Programımız kapsamında Kanada'dan Rüya'nın da aramıza katılmasından büyük mutluluk duyuyoruz. Rüya, CERI Araştırma Ekibi Üyesi, Mentee ve Kanada elçisi olarak aramıza katılıyor. 12 yaşında ve her zaman biyoloji ve tıpla ilgileniyordu. Rüya, CERI gönüllüsü olmanın, kanserin erken evrelerinde yakalanması ve etkili bir şekilde tedavi edilmesi için insanları hastalık konusunda eğitimin yanı sıra, kanser farkındalığı ve önlenmesine de yardımcı olacağına inanıyor.
Rüya'nın ekibimizde olmasından büyük heyecan duyuyoruz ve Eylül ayından itibaren çeşitli kanser türleri ve kanserden korunma yöntemleri üzerine yaptığı çalışmaları sizlerle paylaşmak için sabırsızlanıyoruz.

🎉CERI'ye hoşgeldin Rüya!

Wir freuen uns sehr, Rüya in unserem Team zu haben und können es kaum erwarten, ab September ihre Arbeit zu verschiedenen Krebsarten und Krebspräventionsmethoden mit Ihnen zu teilen.

BREAKING NEWS: FDA recalls ice cream due to LISTERIA contamination.

SOFT SERVE ON THE GO ice cream brand has been recalled by the FDA due to LISTERIA contamination. 

Two people have been hospitalized in New York and in Pennsylvania after reporting having eaten Soft Serce On The Go ice cream. 

This ice cream and sorbet brand is sold in 18 states, including Massachusetts. All flavors of the ice cream brand have been recalled. The company stopped the production of the ice creams. 

Please THROW AWAY the ice cream or sorbet if you have purchased them from this brand. 

A full list of affected products and UPC codes can be found on the FDA website.

What is Listeria?

Listeria (or, Listeriosis) is a serious infection usually caused by eating food contaminated with the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes.

The bacteria are most likely to sicken people who are pregnant and their newborns, adults aged 65 or older, and people with weakened immune systems. Other people can be infected with Listeria, but they rarely become seriously ill.

Invasive listeriosis happens when Listeria have spread beyond the intestines.

People who are pregnant - Symptoms typically include:

• Fever
• Flu-like symptoms, such as muscle aches and fatigue

People who are not pregnant - Symptoms typically include:

• Fever
• Flu-like symptoms, such as muscle aches and fatigue
• Headache

• Stiff neck
• Confusion
• Loss of balance
• Seizures

People who are pregnant - Severity of invasive illness:

• Symptoms in pregnant people are usually mild. Some pregnant people never have symptoms.
• However, infection during pregnancy usually leads to miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn.

People who are not pregnant - Severity of invasive illness:

• Symptoms in non-pregnant people can be severe.
• Almost 1 in 20 non-pregnant people with invasive listeriosis die.

Consumers with any uneaten servings should dispose of it or return to the store where they bought it for a full refund. Questions may be directed to 845-668-4346 from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. EDT, Monday through Friday, or by email at info@softserveonthego.com.
