Health: World Rabies Day being observed

__________________________________________

// KARACHI: World Rabies Day is being observed today with aim to raise awareness about the impact of rabies on humans & animals, provide information and advice on how to prevent the disease.

Rabies is a viral disease that causes acute encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) in warm-blooded animals. The disease can be transmitted from one species to another, such as from dogs to humans. For a human, rabies is almost invariably fatal if postexposure prophylaxis is not administered prior to the onset of severe symptoms. The rabies virus infects the central nervous system, ultimately causing disease in the brain and death.

On the occasion of World Rabies Day, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have united in their goal to eliminate human rabies and control the disease in animals.

Every year, an estimated 60000 people die an agonizing death from rabies, many of whom are children bitten by rabies-infected dogs.

Community participation, education and public awareness are important elements of successful rabies control programmes, and mass vaccination of dogs is critical. Communities need to take responsibility for their dogs, preve nt dog bites and know what to do when bitten.

More than 100 countries report cases of rabies in dogs putting people at risk. Vaccinating at least 70% of dogs breaks the cycle of transmission in dogs and to humans. Rabies programmes need to incorporate free-roaming and street dogs with options for dog population management.

Safe, efficacious and affordable dog rabies vaccines are available, and countries embarking on rabies elimination need easy access to quality-assured dog vaccines for vaccination campaigns and for outbreak management. Vaccine banks can help facilitate procurement and deliveries.

A person who is bitten by a rabid animal still has the chance to survive if the wound is cleaned immediately and thoroughly with plenty of water and soap and post-exposure prophylaxis is provided in time (a course of vaccines and, in severe cases, immunoglobulins). Preventive rabies vaccination can be given to people at high risk of exposure from domestic or wild animals, such as animal health workers, veterinarians or laboratory personnel, to protect them before they are exposed.

Surveillance is an important pillar to understand trends and to guide action in rabies elimination. Disease reporting is essential for identifying risk areas and providing assurance of absence of disease. Laboratory capacity is critical to confirm cases and requires strengthening in many parts of the world.

Besides addressing rabies in dogs, rabies transmitt ed by wildlife also requires attention. In a few regions of the world, rabies transmitted by wildlife has become the most prominent pathway for human rabies transmission, for example bat- transmitted rabies in South America. Changes in the environment and closer human contact with wildlife can lead to increased human exposure to rabies-infected wildlife species. Livestock can become infected with rabies by dogs or wildlife, resulting in economic losses and impacting food security.//

BBC News - Burial space in England 'could run out in 20 years'
 


CREATIVE LIVING AWARENESS WELFARE (CLAW):

One of the shocking things in near future on earth would be finding no space for being buried or else like that after death for a person belonging to any doctrine of thoughts. Many graveyards have been found turning to multistory shopping and residential complexes.  What a pity on 'the best of creatures', the human beings! Therefore, some positive steps should be taken by all the global country governments.

// LOS ANGELES: The promoters of Michael Jackson's last tour were "so excited"
about making huge profits that they hired an unfit doctor for the star,
his family's lawyer said Tuesday in closing arguments.

As a five-month trial draws to a close, Jackson attorney Brian Panish said
the self-styled King of Pop was "an easy target" for AEG Live, which was
managing his "This is It" tour starting in London in 2009.

"We may never see the likes of Michael Jackson again," Panish told the
12-member jury in a courtroom in downtown Los Angeles, where the trial
opened in April and has seen nearly 60 witnesses and over 800 pieces of
evidence.

Jackson died on June 25, 2009 from an overdose of the
anesthetic propofol at his rented Holmby Hills mansion outside Los
Angeles, where he was rehearsing for the "This is It" shows at London's
02 Arena. He was 50 years old.......................................//

Air Pollution is Deadlier than Road Accidents.

// SAOPAULO: Air pollution kills more people annually than road accidents in
Sao Paulo, Brazil's most populous city which will host the opening game
of the 2014 World Cup, a study found.

The survey by the Healthand Environment out Tuesday said at least 4,655 people died from pollution-related ailments in the city which is home to 11 million,
compared with 1,556 killed in crashes.

With four million vehicles clogging the city streets every day, pollution was also a bigger killer than breast cancer and AIDS, it added.

At the state level, the split is also stark.

"Few people know it, but every year, 15,000 people die throughout the state
due to pollution, more than the 7,900 deaths from road accidents," said
institute president Evangelina Vormittag.

With a total population of 42 million, the state of Sao Paulo is also Brazil's most populous andthe annual average of pollutants in the air reaches 20 to 25 microgramsper cubic meter, much higher than the 10 micrograms tolerated by the
World Health Organization.

Scientists say environmental pollution can cause many respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems and breast cancer.

The study was conducted between 2006 and 2011, in collaboration with health
and economic experts from the University of Sao Paulo. (AFP)//

CREATIVE LIVING AWARENESS WELFARE (CLAW): Amazing & Interesting

=============================================================

FLORIDA: Age proved to be no bar for this daring 90-year-old man who has just
finished a marathon 1497 kilometres long journey on a cycle from
Kentucky to Florida.

Bert Blevens set off on August 20 and
stayed in hotels along the way during his epic journey. It took him 21
days to cruise across Tennessee, Georgia and most of Florida because his
recumbent tricycle is not permitted on highways, 'New York Daily News'
reported.

"I feel great. I feel relaxed, I feel good. I'm not as
tired as I thought I'd be, but I might take a little rest," Blevens told
Sarasota Herald-Tribune.

Blevens' son accompanied him during the
first half of the journey, after which his daughter, Beth, stepped in to
give her father company for the rest of the distance.

Blevens stopped to take pictures with curious onlookers who quickly became his fans.

Beth said there were times when she was not sure they were going to make it.

Family members encouraged Blevens by printing T-shirts bearing his quote: "If
something comes up, try it. The worst thing you can do is fail, and that
is not a catastrophe."

HIV infections plummet since 2001: UN

                              **********************


// GENEVA: New HIV infections have plummeted by a third overall since 2001 and
more than halved among children, the United Nations said Monday.

Globally, 2.3 million people contracted the AIDS virus last year -- down 33
percent from 2001, while 260,000 children became infected -- over a
third fewer than in 2009 and 52 percent down from 2001.

"The annual number of new HIV infections continues to decline with especially
sharp reductions in the number of children newly infected with HIV,"
said UNAIDS executive director Michel Sidibe.

Hailing progress in distributing antiretroviral drugs that prevent the transmission of the virus from pregnant women to their unborn children, the UN body said it
may be possible to slash new infections among kids by 90 percent in the
next two years.

In its annual report on the state of the global pandemic, the agency said the drugs had prevented more than 670,000 children contracting the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which causes AIDS from 2009 to 2012 alone.

In sub-Saharan Africa -- home to 90 percent of the world's 3.3 million infected youngsters -- the decline was particularly striking.

In Ghana, for instance, 90 percent of pregnant, HIV-positive women had access to antiretroviral treatment last year, up from just 32 percent three years earlier.

As a result, the likelihood of women in the country infecting their unborn children
dropped from 31 percent in 2009 to just nine percent last year, said UNAIDS.

Increased access to the drug "cocktail" which curtails HIV transmission but does not cure it, has helped reduce the number of AIDS-related deaths among all age groups by 30 percent since they peaked in 2005, the report said.

In a foreword to the 269-page report, Sidibe hailed "continued progress towards the global vision of zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths."

Last year, 1.6 million people died AIDS-related deaths, down from 1.8 million in 2011 and 2.3 million in 2005.

The report showed that 9.7 million people in low- and middle-income
countries, the bulk of those infected, had access to HIV drugs last
year, compared to only 1.3 million seven years earlier.

While the hike is impressive, it falls short of a UN target announced two years ago to reach 15 million people by 2015.

And it represents only 34 percent of the 28.3 million people who need the
drugs, under new guidelines released by the World Health Organisation in
June.

The increased access to treatment also means that more people are living with HIV, according to UNAIDS.

Some 35.3 million people were living with the virus last year -- about 70
percent of them in sub-Saharan Africa -- up from 30 million in 2001.

Sidibe insisted the 2015 target for global access to antiretrovirals remained
in sight, but stressed the world must "have the vision and commitment to
ensure no one is left behind".

Obviously, this will put a strain on world purse strings.

UNAIDS said international donor contributions to combating HIV had remained
flat since the global financial crisis erupted in 2008, and individual
countries were increasingly picking up the tab to beat HIV at home.

Last year, nations accounted for 53 percent of the $18.9 billion (14 billion euros) set aside to fight the virus.

The UN has set a target of $22-24 billion by 2015.

Earlier this year, Sidibe insisted the investment would pay off, pointing out
that "fewer deaths, less sickness" takes a burden off the healthcare
system, allowing HIV-positive people to work and contribute to the
economy for longer.

"If we do not pay now, we will pay later, we'll pay forever," he said. (AFP)//
