November Designated as Men's Health Month; All City Officials Asked to Grow Mustaches

Public officials, physicians, businessmen and entrepreneurs have united in a campaign which is a first in Eagle Pass to bring awareness to the importance of men's health issues as well as women for them to check themselves regularly in order to prevent fatal diseases.
The campaign has been entitled Movember, a play on words between mustache and November.
Texas Health authorities and civic organizations have gotten the support of local personalities to insure an overall buy-in to the campaign to get all men to check themselves regularly and care about their health as they are the heads of their households and their loved ones care for them.
As a sign of support for this campaign city and county officials are letting their mustaches grow.
Some of our public officials who will be participating will be our Mayor Ramsey English-Cantú, Judge David Saucedo, Mexican Consulate Ricardo Santana, Dr. carlos Hernandez, EPISD Board Member Ignacio Saucedo and local businessman Joe Rodriguez.
Chief of Police Antonio Castañeda, who already sports a mustache, was shaved publicly in order to join the campaign.
Participants will grow their mustaches all through November and will shave them off in December.
Most of those participating have said that someone in their family has had illnesses such as cancer, diabetes and other maladies which need to be taken seriously and caught in a timely manner.
Dr. Carlos Hernandez says that men should visit the doctor periodically before it's too late.
He added that primarily, diabetes, obesity, cancer and prostate problems are some of the problems we see regularly in Eagle Pass.
Mexican Consulate Ricardo Santana said that unfortunately in many cases men worry more about their vehicles being in optimal working conditions as opposed to their own health.
That is why November has been dedicated to raise awareness on men's health.
