In our latest survey, we asked STL adults what they considered the biggest health problem facing STL. By a landslide margin, most people named gun violence.
Other top problems include mental health, healthcare access & cost, and drug abuse.

STL County Council recently reversed the rule prohibiting tobacco sales within 1000 feet of schools. However, County Executive Dr. Sam Page vetoed the bill just this week.
Follow along to stay informed about youth tobacco use.

Last week, almost 1/3 of STL adults heard about a new fungus spreading between people. The fungus is called Candida auris and commonly spreads in healthcare settings such as hospitals and nursing homes. The fungus is still relatively rare, but spread increased from 2020-2021.

How do residents feel about traffic safety in St. Louis? 🛑 ⚠️ 🚗🚦 (Part 1/2)
Not great, our recent survey shows. Most felt that local traffic was unsafe and getting more dangerous. Only 1% of respondents thought it was getting safer.
