On this West Virginia Morning, in recent years, physicians across the country have monitored surges of a condition known as Alpha-Gal Syndrome, which can cause allergic reactions to red meat. Hannah Saad with Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom member station WKMS reports that, now, farmers, restaurateurs and the afflicted are flocking to a new source of protein.
Also, with just over six weeks until state and federal midterm elections, West Virginia Democrats are launching their Kitchen Table Tour this week. The tour includes a series of rallies to be held in Marion, Kanawha, Cabell, Boone, Hancock and Jefferson counties.
And, educators will come together in Charleston later this week to learn to better support students in the state’s public schools.
Finally, over the weekend, a triple bronze star veteran of the Korean War celebrated his 98th birthday in Raleigh County with family and friends, fellow veterans, community members and Gov. Patrick Morrisey.
