FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – June 11, 2026, Covina, CA – Beekeeper’s Naturals is voluntarily recalling lot # 5950, Exp. Date 02/2028 of Beekeeper’s Naturals Saline Nasal Spray, sold only through Amazon, to the consumer level. This lot, produced at a third-party manufacturer, tested above our acceptable microbiological limits for yeast and may contain Aspergillus spp.

In the population most at risk, such as people with weakened immune systems or lung diseases, there is a reasonable probability that use of the product with Aspergillus spp. contamination will cause serious and life-threatening infections such as invasive sinusitis and lung infections.

To date, Beekeeper’s Naturals has received four reports from customers regarding adverse reactions potentially related to the recalled product, including sinus congestion, irritation or infection.

Total Nutrition Inc. of Deer Park, NY is voluntarily expanding its recall of TNVitamins and Doctor’s Pride Ultra Potent Complete Green Superfood Moringa Capsules due to the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. This expansion follows an ongoing supply chain investigation that identified additional lot numbers linked to the same raw material lot that prompted the original recall. Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis, and arthritis.

The recalled product was distributed nationally through the online platforms, Amazon, Walmart, TikTok Shop, Target, and the company’s websites, http://www.tnvitamins.com/, and https://www.doctorspride.com/.

Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced the following schedule of maintenance activities in Potter County the week of June 15. PennDOT performs year-round maintenance in its mission to provide a safe, efficient transportation system, and the scope of work in Potter County for the coming week is as follows:

Bridge Maintenance & Cleaning

• Route 4005 (Whitney Creek Road) at a bridge spanning the South Branch of Oswayo Creek half a mile South of Coneville in Hebron Township. Monday, June 15, through Thursday, June 18. This work takes place on or beyond the shoulder and has minimal, if any traffic impact, however PennDOT urges drivers to exercise caution in all work zones.

Guests can also enjoy a variety of food offerings, including sausage with peppers and onions, hot dogs with assorted toppings, a baked potato bar, snacks and refreshments.

Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced the following schedule of maintenance activities in McKean County the week of June 15. PennDOT performs year-round maintenance in its mission to provide a safe, efficient transportation system, and the scope of work in Potter County for the coming week is as follows:

Bridge Maintenance & Cleaning

• Route 66 at a bridge spanning a tributary of West Run in Wetmore Township. Monday, June 15, through Thursday, June 18. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.

Pennsylvania has some of the oldest bridges in the country, with an with an average age of more than 50 years. Preventive maintenance is vital in extending the life of the structures. As such, PennDOT maintenance crews perform some bridge deck patching and structural repairs.

Patching

• All of Route 546 in Otto Township. Monday, June 15, through Wednesday, June 17. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.

Most permanent pothole patching is completed in spring or summer when temperatures stay consistently above freezing. Manual patching consists of filling potholes with warm mix asphalt using a shovel. It is then leveled and compacted. Mechanized patching consists of milling paving notches, cleaning the surface, applying tack to all edges to act as a glue. A paver then places warm mix into the milled paving notches, and a roller compacts the material. If patching was not performed, the damaged road surface would deteriorate further, and PennDOT would need to completely rebuild the road or perform more costly corrective measures.

Pipe Replacement & Cleaning

• Route 346 approximately 2.5 miles East of Stickney Trail Road. Monday, June 15, and Tuesday, June 16. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.
• Route 346 approximately two miles West of Hedgehog Lane in Bradford Township. Wednesday, June 17, and Thursday, June 18. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.

Pipe replacement and cleaning are essential in maintaining water flow around state roadways. Controlling water flow is one of the most important aspects of maintaining pavements. Uncontrolled water flow will damage both the pavement surface and the area under the pavement, which causes deterioration across the length of the pipe.

Shoulder Maintenance

• All of Route 219. Monday, June 15, and Tuesday, June 16. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.
• Route 59 starting at Route 4003 (Bingham Road) in Lafayette Township and continuing westbound approximately 18 miles to the McKean-Warren County line in Corydon Township. Tuesday, June 16, through Thursday, June 18. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.
• Route 3009 (Roberts Road) starting at Route 59 in Lafayette Township and continuing southbound approximately three miles to the Hamlin-Lafayette Township line. Wednesday, June 17. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.

Shoulder cutting removes excess material and debris from unpaved shoulder areas. Shoulder grading involves the shaping and stabilizing of those same areas. Both operations improve drainage, allow water to leave the roadway, and eliminate shoulder drop-offs. These are crucial highway maintenance operations because when drainage systems do not function properly, water collects on the road, weakens pavement, accelerates the formation of potholes, and creates the potential for icing conditions in the winter months.

Vegetation Management

• All of Route 346. Monday, June 15. This work takes place on or beyond the shoulder and has minimal, if any traffic impact, however PennDOT urges drivers to exercise caution in all work zones.
• All of Route 219. Tuesday, June 16, through Thursday, June 18. This work takes place on or beyond the shoulder and has minimal, if any traffic impact, however PennDOT urges drivers to exercise caution in all work zones.

Mowing, herbicide spraying, and selected tree thinning help maintain a safe roadway free of obstructing vegetation, improving visibility to spot signage, traffic control devices, and other motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and animals approaching the road. Additionally, a well-maintained roadside can improve drainage and prolong the life of the roadway.

Crews will be off on Friday, June 19, in observation of the Juneteenth holiday.

This schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions, emergencies, or other unforeseen interruptions.

Customers can report road concerns by calling 1-800-FIX-ROAD. If you call after hours, please leave a name and phone number.

BRADFORD, PA – The United Way of the Bradford Area, Inc. is excited to launch the inaugural 814 Day of Action, a community-wide volunteer event taking place on August 14 that will bring together businesses, organizations, civic groups, and volunteers to complete meaningful service projects throughout the community.

Inspired by the 814 area code that connects our region, the 814 Day of Action is designed to unite people around projects that enhance public spaces, strengthen nonprofit organizations, and improve community resources. Rather than addressing individual needs, the event will focus on community service projects that create lasting benefits for the broader community.

BRADFORD – Five Bradford County housing and community development initiatives were collectively awarded $700,000 through the Pennsylvania Housing Affordability and Rehabilitation Enhancement (PHARE) program to expand affordable housing opportunities, Reps. Tina Pickett (R-Bradford/Wyoming) and Clint Owlett (R-Tioga/Bradford) announced today.

The funding, allocated by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency, will support the following local programs:

• Bradford County Homeowner Assistance Program – $200,000. Organized by Trehab, funding will aim to mitigate the effects of a constrained housing market on low- to mid-income residents. Funds will be used to provide down payment and closing cost grants or repair funding (for repairs necessary to loan approval, general livability or safety).  
• Bradford County Housing Specialist – $150,000. Organized by Bradford County, the program provides short-term and transitional housing support for households that are homeless or at risk of homelessness with a goal of homelessness prevention or to keep their period of displacement as brief as possible.
• Bradford County Manufactured Housing Rehabilitation Program – $125,000. Organized by Bradford County, funding will provide essential repairs for low-income residents living in manufactured homes.
• Bradford County Landlord Rehabilitation Fund – $125,000. Organized by Bradford County, the program provides up to $25,000 per unit to landlords serving low- and moderate-income tenants. Offered as a forgivable loan, the funds will bring aging rentals up to modern safety and accessibility standards while ensuring at least 10 years of affordability.
• Endless Mountain Mission Center Shelter and Street Outreach – $100,000. Organized by Endless Mountain Mission Center, the project will temporarily house those homeless or living in unhabitable housing conditions with no feasible alternative and aid those living in unhabitable conditions who cannot or will not come to the shelter with its street outreach program.

“Housing is one of our most foundational needs, as it supports good health, stable employment and overall well-being,” Owlett said. “I am pleased to support investments in these key programs that are taking a multi-pronged approach to combatting the housing challenges we face in Bradford County.”

“The programs receiving this funding address several aspects of housing insecurity, all aiming to help people find and be comfortable in their own homes,” Pickett said. “I’m grateful we’re able to support these housing and community development initiatives and look forward to how it can help those in Bradford County.”

PHARE receives funding from two sources, the Marcellus Shale Impact Fee and Realty Transfer Taxes.

CARE for Children’s Therapeutic Recreation Summer Day Camp has returned to the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford, after a 7-year hiatus, after being identified by the organization’s Family Leadership Group as a need within the community.

The camp serves school-aged children who receive services from CARE, as well as local children and teens with disabilities or developmental delays throughout McKean County. Designed as an extension of CARE’s therapeutic services, the program provides opportunities for children to strengthen and apply skills developed throughout the school year in a fun, supportive, and socially engaging environment. Through structured recreational activities, participants continue working on communication, motor development, social interaction, self-regulation, and independence while enjoying a traditional camp experience.
