New health challenges

I have been away for some time. When I came back, more confirmed swine flu cases appeared.
OMG. God bless you. Unfortunately, I come here with the bad news first
New health challenges
The recent epidemic situation in China
The virus is spread rapidly in China. And China swine flu tolls have reach 32.It includes 13 case in mainland, 10 in Hong Kong and 9 in Taiwan up to now. During recent days, several cases were confirmed consistently in Taiwan. Among the cases, there is the first un-imported case. Due to the structure of confirmed case, Taiwan had to raise the alarming level.


Meanwhile, Hong Kong took measures to prevent the virus. Hong Kong has asked students in the United States to defer travel back home if they have symptoms of the flu. "I would reiterate and re-emphasize my appeal to all those who are thinking of and planning to travel back from their studies especially from North America to make sure that they do not show any symptoms of influenza and that they do not have a fever before they board the flight. And of course, they should go to the doctor immediately if they do, and seek care locally where they are currently, in North America and make sure that they are fully recovered before they take the flight," Leung said

World Health Assembly Discusses New Health Challenges
World Health Organization Director-General, Margaret Chan, says the world is facing multiple crises, on multiple fronts. And, these are occurring at a time when the global economic crisis is making it more difficult to maintain good health, especially in the developing world.
The WHO Chief says the new Swine Flu A-H1N1 virus shows how health challenges are changing
Dr. Chan says increased interdependence among nations creates a great potential for economic disruption. This means the gap between the haves and the have-nots will grow even larger than it already has.

"Today, about 85 percent of the burden of chronic diseases is concentrated in low and middle income countries," she said. "The implications are obvious. The developing world has, by far, the largest pool of people at risk for severe and fatal H1N1 infections."

Home made popsicles, made with sugar-free juice or Kool-Aid.Cut the amount of sugar in half. Typically recipes call for way too much sugar.It may take a little getting use to but you and your family will adjust to things not being so sweet. They may even taste better!
