WHO requests a Registry Registry for Human Genetics

(HEALTH)

MONDAY, July 12, 2021 (HealthDay News) - New recommendations on human genetic planning released by the World Health Organization call for a worldwide registration to follow "any form of genetic abuse" and a flawed or unsafe process of research.

The WHO first set up an expert advisory panel in late 2018, after a Chinese scientist claimed to have established the world's first genetically engineered children, reports the Associated Press.

All studies involving human genetic engineering should be made known, even if it would not stop unscrupulous scientists, a panel of experts now advises.

"In the field of stem cell research, unscrupulous entrepreneurs and clinicians have deliberately misused the registration of clinical trials by registering procedures they plan to imply that clinical trials are approved," he notes.

They said the WHO should ensure that all genetic research registered in its database is reviewed and approved by the ethics committee, reports AP

Also, the United Nations health agency should have mechanisms in place to identify any potential genetic testing and to report "violations of research integrity."

There have been a number of cases where the attack has disrupted controversial genetic engineering in Russia, Ukraine and Turkey, says executive committee member Robin Lovell-Badge of the Francis Crick Institute, reports AP.

However, while the WHO now requires strong attention to genetic planning, there is not much the agency can actually do, as genetic planning techniques are cheap and simple.

The United Nations cannot force any country to abide by its own laws, even in the face of public health emergencies, the WHO has acknowledged.

Do we need to take 10,000 steps a day in our lives?

Do we need to take 10,000 steps a day in our lives?

In fact, few of us reach that goal in 10,000 steps, however. According to the latest figures, the majority of adults in the United States, Canada, and other Western countries average less than 5,000 steps a day.

Eligibility tracking devices often recommend that we take 10,000 steps a day. But the goal of taking 10,000 steps, which most of us believe is based on science, actually depends on understanding the sticky history rather than researching it.

According to Drs. Min Lee, professor at Harvard T.H. With the Chan School of Public Health and a specialist in action and health statistics, the 10,000-goal goal became popular in Japan in the 1960's. The watchmaker, hoping to benefit from the quest for excellence after the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, mass-produced a pedometer with a name that, when written in Japanese characters, resembled a pedestrian. It also translated as a "10,000-step meter," creating the purpose of travel, which, over the decades, somehow entered into our global fast - and to the strength of the track.

But today's best science suggests that we do not need to take 10,000 steps a day, 5 miles (5 km) for our health or long life.

A 2019 study by Lee and colleagues found that women in their 70s who had as few steps as 4,400 steps a day reduced their risk of premature death by about 40%, compared to women who completed 2,700 or fewer steps a day. The risks of premature death continued to decline among women who walked more than 5,000 steps a day, but the benefits filled up with about 7,500 daily steps. In other words, older women who completed less than half the daily 10,000 warts were more likely to stay longer than those who covered the small earth.

One additional study last year of nearly 5,000 men and women of different races equally found that 10,000 steps a day is not a requirement for longevity. In that study, people who walked about 8,000 steps a day were more likely to die prematurely from heart disease or any other reason like those who received 4,000 steps a day. The statistical benefits of additional steps are small, which means that it does not hurt people to accumulate more daily steps, up to more than 10,000 step marks. But additional measures did not provide additional protection against the deaths of minors, either

In fact, few of us reach that goal of 10,000 steps, however. According to the latest figures, the majority of adults in the United States, Canada, and other Western countries average less than 5,000 steps a day.

And when we reach the goal of 10,000 steps, our feat is usually only temporary. A popular study in Ghent, Belgium, provided local pedestrians with 2005 pedometers and encouraged them to walk at least 10,000 steps a day for a year. Of the 660 men and women who completed the study, about 8% reached the goal of 10,000 steps in the end. But at the follow-up study four years later, almost no one was traveling. Most have gone back to basics, taking about the same number of steps now as at the beginning of the study.

The good news is that raising our current steps by a few thousand dollars in more days can be a logical, adequate - and achievable goal, says Lee. The official guidelines for physical activity issued by the United States and other governments use time, not measures, as a recommendation, and suggest that we spend at least 150 minutes a week, or half an hour for many days, in addition to any travel we do as part of our normal, daily life. Translated into a step-by-step calculation, Lee said, that number would work with more than 16,000 steps a week of exercise for most people, or about 2,000 to 3,000 steps for most days. (Two thousand steps equals about a mile.)

If, like most people, we are currently taking about 5,000 steps per day during daily activities such as shopping and household chores, adding an additional 2,000 to 3,000 steps can take us to averages between 7,000 and 8,000 steps most days, namely, Lee he said, it seems to be a fun place to count.

THE 10 FITTEST COMIC HEROES

'M&F' salutes the 10 buffest, most badass comic book superheroes.

The Rules

From the very early days of the sport, bodybuilders have been inspired by comic books. Bodybuilding in turn, went on to inspire a generation bodybuilding artists. Now, in the era  of the comic book movie, the actors who portray superhero have inspired gym rats and future bodybuilders around the globe.  In honor of this powerful, self-perpetuating circle of motivation, we rank the top 10 superheroes who got the big-screen treatment from actors who trained their asses off. The criteria to make this list was simple: The character in question had to be a hero whose original source material was a comic book, and the actor portraying the character had to show an exemplary physique onscreen. To nip some FAQs in the bud: Since Conan the Barbarian’s source material was a novel, Arnolds portray of the character is ineligible. Likewise, Arnold’s turn as Mr. Freeze in Batman and Robin is also out, as this list honors heroes, not villains.

2 OF 11

Green Lantern – Ryan Reynolds, 2010

The suit might glow, but the body is real. And after seeing Reynolds as Deadpool in the first Wolverine movie, and in his own solo film after, there’s no doubting the fact that his physique is the product of many long hours in the gym.

Captain America – Chris Evans, 2011- Present

Evans got considerably bigger for this role than when he played the Human Torch in the Fantastic Four films, pumping iron for an hour and 15 minutes every day, and chasing that with high-intensity cardio.

4 OF 11

Judge Dredd  - Sylvester  Stallone, 1995

This isn’t Stallone’s best shape (or film) by any stretch of the imagination, but he’s never been out of shape, and any comic hero he played would be worthy of inclusion on this list.

pawn – Michael Jai White, 1997 

If White made the physical aspect of playing Spawn look easy, it’s because he’s a lifelong martial arts expert, holding down seven different black belts.

6 OF 11

Blade – Wesley Snipes, 1998, 2002, 2004

Weight training, Pilates, kickboxing—you name it, Snipes did it—and looked like a fitness model through three of his best movies.

Batman – Christian Bale, 2005, 2008, 2012

The best Batman movies to date also featured the Caped Crusader in his best fighting shape. Bale’s version of the character is the biggest, most imposing Batman ever.

8 OF 11

Thor – Chris Hemsworth, 2011 – Present

Trainer Duffy Gaver put Hemsworth through an old-school bodybuilding routine and diet to achieve the character’s mythical proposition.

9 OF 11

Superman – Christopher Reeve, 1978-1987; Henry Cavill, 2013  – Present

Reeve’s physique might not wow the audiences of today, but there’s no denying he perfected the silver-age look of the character, and his rigorous training is well-documented. Cavills superman is a perfect modern-day update, and his high-intensity approach with trainer Mark Twight made him worthy of an M&F cover.

10 OF 11

Wolverine – Hugh Jackman, 2000 – 2017

Over a decade after his first turn as Wolverine in the original X-Men movie, and Jackman is still going strong. His consistent conditioning over so many films made  him a no-brainer for a high spot. To see the exact routine that got him bigger and more shredded than ever for The Wolverine.

11 OF 11

The Punisher – Dolph Lundgren, 1989;  Thomas Jane, 2004 

Lundgren has maintained a hulking physique throughout his career. Jane, meanwhile, immersed himself in navy SEAL training to nail the part of antihero Frank Castle. We will have

Kolkata-based icmr has submitted a proposal to the biotechnology department under the ministry for research on an oral Covid vaccine, a senior official of the institute said on Monday.

The proposed research project will be done in collaboration with a German firm and it has been shortlisted for presentation, she said.

"We have submitted a proposal for research on an oral vaccine. It will be carried out in collaboration with a German firm. Work can be started once it gets selected and funded," ICMR-NICED Director shanta dutta said.

She said it will take around 5-6 years to develop the oral vaccine in a laboratory.

Once the oral vaccine is developed, it will first be tested on animals as is done for all vaccines, dutta said.

"All stages of developing a vaccine, and phases of clinical trials for safety and immunogenicity will be followed in this case too and the vaccine will be first tested on animals.

"The entire process will take at least five to six years and we can expect the oral vaccine in the market only after that," she added

Coronavirus: Centre increases Delhi’s oxygen supply after top hospitals flag shortage for second day

2021-04-21T22:59:00.006+05:30

Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said the center had increased Delhi's oxygen supply to treat coronavirus patients as the city faces an unprecedented shortage between the second wave of the disease.

Medical oxygen supplies in Delhi have been alarmingly low for the second day on Wednesday, with several of the city's top hospitals claiming to have only oxygen for a few more hours.

Amid the crisis, Delhi's Deputy Prime Minister Manis Sisodia had called on the Institute to increase the value of Capital assets, ANI reported. He said about 18,000 patients are currently admitted to city hospitals, and in need of critical care.

Father George, director of Holy Family Hospital, told NDTV that they have about 400 patients supported by oxygen, with enough supplies to keep them up until Wednesday evening. A similar situation existed at St Stephen’s Hospital, which had 500 patients and had only two hours of oxygen left.

Delhi's health care infrastructure explodes at a juncture where the city reports thousands of new cases of coronavirus every day during the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic. This has led to a chronic shortage of oxygen supply, hospital beds and timely health care.

On Tuesday, too, hospitals warned that oxygen supplies were low enough, with government facilities reporting that they had enough oxygen to last another eight hours and some private ones only four or five hours.

After Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal urged the Center to address the issue of severe oxygen shortages, and the Delhi High Court ordered the Center to take urgent action, some of the city's medical facilities were filled before dawn on Wednesday.

But in the evening, several hospitals in the city were running out of oxygen again.

At Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, authorities have warned that the goods are "dangerously low". "This will have serious consequences for our patients, especially for the more than 350 patients who rely on oxygen Covid-19," Apollo Director P Shivakumar told NDTV.

Max's Delhi Hospital has issued a statement saying it has only two hours left at Max Shalimar Bagh and three hours at Max Patparganj. The two hospitals between them have more than 500 Covid patients.

89 percent of all prescriptions dispensed with a generic drug – Generics True need of the hour

2021-04-21T22:36:00.005+05:30

The purchase of medicines constitutes one of the largest portion of the 'Out Of Pocket' paid by families, contributing more than 66.6% of health costs. Today, about 40% of Indians live on less than Rs. 72 per day and health care is one of the biggest cost areas. According to WHO reports, about half the world's population lack basic health care. More than 95 million face poverty as a result of their medical bills and nearly 800 million spend most of their family budget on medicines, including in India.

People often find it difficult to choose between branded and unpublished products in all categories. Simply put, they tend to judge the quality of what is not marked. The concept of generic medicine is well established in the west, with 89 percent of all orders issued in the U.S. last year full of generic medicine but still in the emerging category in India. Where the generic pharmaceutical industry falls into the three dimensions of authenticity, accessibility, and accessibility, clients are provided with and provided with standard medicines approved by WHO & FDA in an effort to ensure the effectiveness of generic medicines in line with prescription drug s.

A special way for the industry to keep the aspect of mental awareness and educating the general public on the realities and benefits of generic medicine is part of the long-term vision. The gray area lies in people's willingness to believe in the effectiveness of these drugs. However, the fact that they contain the same chemicals as patented drugs should actually be conveyed to compensate for the lack of customer information in this regard. The availability of markets for high-quality generic medicines requires the dissemination of this information to all regions and the social framework.

The way in which information is transmitted to the public makes a huge difference in consumer behavior. Therefore, the teaching method has a direct bearing on how clients respond to standard medications. There are endless efforts to educate people about the benefits of using traditional medicine. Now, with Pradhan Mantri Janaushadhi Kendra, the government’s move to promote the use of generic medicines can be a smooth journey to carry the same social benefits to different parts of society and save their costs out of drug packaging. The aim lies in ensuring proper health care among people who often overlook the harmful effects on their health simply because of the high cost of prescription drugs.

It is important that these medicines are approved by the WHO or other registered health authorities. This is important in building the reliability of standard medications. Going forward, the idea is to save money and encourage research to find new molecules that will cure a particular disease as appropriate alternatives to more expensive branded drugs. Retail prices may be affected by the widespread use of generic drugs compared to branded brands, but in the future due to price fluctuations caused by the Covid-19 epidemic. It is a mandatory aspect of diversity and inclusion where people with limited purchasing power are able to afford standard medical treatment, thus making it easier for consumers.

Today, India is home to the world's fastest-growing pharmaceutical industry. It is the largest supplier of generic medicines in the world, has a 20% stake in volume supply worldwide, and supplies more than 50% of the global demand for a variety of vaccines, catering to 40% of the general demand in the US and 25% of the total medicines UK. India is a source of 60,000 standard products in 60 medical categories and produces more than 500 Active Active Ingredients (APIs). The export of generic medicines is one of the main strengths of India. Increasing the development of generic medicine as part of sustainable future development is essential .

According to doctors treating Covid-19 patients in India, the drug helps to reduce the recurrence of the virus but, they point out that patients with moderate to severe Covid-19 treatment are treated not only with Remdesivir but a combination of oxygen therapy, vitamin supplements, steroids and blood thinners. that they recover quickly.

10,000 trees to be cut for Dehradun airport , but why ???

2020-10-01T20:00:00.017+05:30

DEHRADUN: To facilitate the expansion of Doon's Jolly Grant Airport, the Uttarakhand Forest Department has decided to leave 215 acres of the Shivalik Elephant Reserve, one of the major elephant reserves in the country. The move will not only mean more shrinkage in the area for elephant movement, but also harvesting around 10,000 trees.

The TOI has specifically described the proposed transfer of land, showing that a total of 9,745 trees (including 25 other species of trees including Khair (3405), Sheesham (2135), Sagan (185) and Gulmohar (120) Which of them is proposed to be cut so as to facilitate the working at the airport.

Conservationists say that the "Doon is going to be devastating to the fragile ecosystem of the valley" as the forest is home to not only elephants but also leopards, chital, sambar and many other wild species.

Apart from this, the proposed area for the development of the airport falls within the radius of 10 km of Rajaji National Park Eco Sensitive Zone and the notified elephant corridors are also located within just 3 km radius of the proposed area. The proposal letter reached by TOI states that in the region, "there is regular movement of wild animals, especially elephants, which can affect human-animal conflicts as well as wild animals."

Gauri Moulekhary, member secretary of the Uttarakhand Chapter, an NGO called People for Animals, reacted sharply against the move, stating, “Forests and wildlife are unique sales propositions for tourism and employment in Uttarakhand. It should be a sacred duty of the government to preserve it but it is very unfortunate that they are doing the opposite. The loss of 215 acres of land in the Shivalik Elephant Reserve would begin a vicious cycle that would end in doom for the state. Habitat loss will mean more forest damage and human-wildlife conflicts.

He adds that "the rapidly shrinking corridors from Razzaji to Corbett were a blow to the traditional movement of elephants anyway". “The hypocrisy on the ground is hypocritical and sinister. Now a total loss of 215 acres would only be a death blow to the species, already reeling under the adverse effects of inbreeding due to the loss of corridors. With forests and wildlife to go, one piece at a time, and consequently shrinking tourism, who would ever need large airports? "

Meanwhile, Dehradun's DFO Rajeev Dhiman told TOI that approval for the proposal was given at the state wildlife board meeting and a wildlife mitigation plan has also been submitted to the chief wildlife warden for approval. "Currently, the proposal is with the central government for approval," he said.

The move to transfer forest land for the development of the airport comes immediately after the Doon Valley, which is on the verge of losing 2500 British-era saline trees to facilitate a 4-kilometer-long section of the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway, Previously reported by TOI. It also comes in the wake of the increasing man-elephant conflict due to space shrinkage for elephant movement.

International Youth Day (UN)

In 1999, the General Assembly supported the recommendation made by the World Conference of Ministers responsible for youth (Lisbon, 8–12 August 1998) that 12 August be declared International Youth Day.

International Youth Day celebrates the voice, actions and initiatives of young people and provides an opportunity for meaningful, universal and equitable engagement. The commemoration will take the form of a podcast-style discussion, hosted by youth for youth, with independently organized memorials around the world that recognize the importance of youth participation in political, economic and social life and processes Huh.

2020 Theme: Youth Engagement for Global Action

International Youth Day 2020, the theme of "Global Engagement for Global Action" seeks to highlight the ways in which youth engagements at the local, national and global levels are enriching national and multilateral institutions and processes, as well as draw lessons. Does. Their representation and engagement in formal institutional politics can be greatly enhanced.

As the United Nations turns 75, and with only 10 years left to make the 2030 agenda a reality for all, trust in public institutions is eroding. Internationally, against the backdrop of an increasingly polarized world, the international system of governance is currently undergoing a crisis of legitimacy and relevance. In particular, this crisis emphasizes the need to strengthen the capacity of the international system to face challenges and implement solutions to challenges and threats (eg some contemporary contemporary conflicts such as Syria and Myanmar and humanitarian Includes emergencies, as well as global challenges, such as the COVID-19 outbreak and climate change).

Enabling youth engagement in formal political systems enhances the fairness of political processes by reducing democratic deficits, contributing to better and more sustainable policies, and also has symbolic significance that increases public institutions, particularly among youth. May contribute more to restore trust. In addition, most of the challenges humanity is facing, such as the outbreak of COVID-19 and climate change, require concrete global action and meaningful engagement and involvement of young people to be effectively addressed.

This year's IYD seeks to cast a spotlight on youth engagement through the following three interconnected streams:

Engagement at the local / community level;

Connectivity at the national level (formulation of laws, policies and their implementation); And,

Engagement on a global scale.

World Breastfeeding week 1 to 7 August .

World Breastfeeding week

1 to 7 August .

World Breastfeeding Week is observed every year from 1 to 7 August to encourage breastfeeding and improve the health of infants around the world. It reminds of the innocent declaration signed in August 1990 by government policy makers, WHO, UNICEF and other organizations to protect, promote and support breastfeeding.

This year, WHO is working with UNICEF and partners to promote the importance of family-friendly policies to enable breastfeeding and help parents nurture and bond with their children early in life. This includes paid maternity leave for a minimum of 18 weeks and paid paternity leave to encourage the shared responsibility of caring for their children on an equal basis. Parents also need access to a parent-friendly workplace to protect their ability to continue breastfeeding and to support their ability to return to work by using breastfeeding breaks; A safe, private and clean place to express and store breastmilk; And affordable childcare.

Breastfeeding promotes better health for mothers and children. Increasing breastfeeding to almost universal levels can save more than 800 000 lives every year, most of whom are children under 6 months of age. Breastfeeding reduces the risk of developing breast cancer, ovarian cancer, type 2 diabetes and heart disease in mothers. It is estimated that breast cancer can cause up to 20 000 maternal deaths each year due to breast cancer.

WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding within one hour of birth until the child is 6 months old. Nutritious supplementary foods should be added until breast-fed for 2 years or more.

WORLD BRAIN DAY

2020-06-10T16:51:00.002+05:30

World brain day -

There are many days related to neurological diseases being observed by professional organizations along with World Health Organization, National Organizations and Local Health Ministries, World Stroke Day, Epilepsy Day, Rabies Day etc. These days have proved extremely helpful in promoting public awareness. And advocacy worldwide including developing Asian, African and Latin American countries.

The World Federation of Neurology was established on 22 July 1957. It was suggested by the Committee on Public Awareness and Advocacy that 22 July 2014 should be celebrated as "World Brain Day". The proposal was announced at a meeting of the WCN, Council of Delegates, on 22 September 2013 and was warmly welcomed by the delegates. A meeting of the Board of Trustees in February 2014 supported this proposal as an annual activity.

The main purpose of this day of the brain is to raise public awareness and promote advocacy related to brain health. The theme of this year's campaign is "Our Brain, Our Future".

WCN 2015 will acknowledge a society with the most effective awareness and advocacy campaign.

World Brain Day is an annual observation celebrated on 22 July. It was established by the World Federation of Neurology to raise awareness about the importance of brain health.

The World Federation of Neurology (WFN) is an international association of national neurological societies that was formed in 1957 in Brussels, Belgium. It currently represents more than 100 professional societies of neurologists in all regions of the world. These are the main goals to promote neurological education and training worldwide and to promote neurological health.

Neurology is a branch of medicine that deals with nervous system disorders, including brain disorders, as the brain is the main organ of the human nervous system. The human mind is one of nature's greatest mysteries, scientists still cannot fully elucidate the complex relationship between the brain and the mind. No wonder brain health gets so much attention.

World Brain Day is an awareness event dedicated to brain health. Its purpose is to educate people about brain health and the most common brain diseases, each year, WFN chooses a new topic for the day. For example, World Brain Day 2015 focused on epilepsy. That year, WFC partnered with the World Health Organization, the International Bureau for Epilepsy, and the International League Against Epilepsy.

WORLD POPULATION DAY

2020-06-09T23:22:00.002+05:30

World population day

In 1989, the Governing Council of the United Nations Development Program recommended that July 11 should be observed by the international community as World Population Day, to pay attention to the urgency and importance of population issues.

This year's World Population Day calls for a global focus on the incomplete trade of population and development at the 1994 International Conference. Twenty-five years have passed since that historic convention, where 179 governments have recognized that reproductive health and gender equality are necessary to achieve sustainable development.

2020/06/how to tell if you have cold

In November, the UNFPA, together with the governments of Kenya and Denmark, will hold a high-level conference in Nairobi to expedite efforts to achieve these uncompromising goals. On World Population Day, advocates around the world are calling on leaders, policymakers, grassroots organizers, institutions and others to help make reproductive health and rights a reality for all. The United Nations' (UN) World Population Day is observed annually on 11 July to reaffirm the human right to plan for the family. It encourages activities, events and information to help make this right a reality around the world.

World Population Day is a global observation and not a public holiday.

The background

In 1968 world leaders declared that individuals had the basic human right to freely and responsibly determine the number and timing of their children. Nearly 40 years later, modern contraception is out of reach for millions of women, men and youth. World Population Day was started in 1989 as Five Billion Day, which was marked on 11 July 1987. The United Nations authorized the event as a vehicle to create awareness about population issues and the impact on development and the environment.

Since then, with the encouragement of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), governments, non-governmental organizations, institutions, and individuals organize various educational activities to commemorate the annual event.

The United Nations logo is often associated with marketing and promotional materials for the event. It is a projection of a world map (Lesser Antarctica) centered on the North Pole, surrounded by olive branches. The olive branches symbolize peace and the world map represents all the people of the world. It is painted in shades of blue against a yellow background.

How Cancer Develops Resistance To Treatment...

2020-06-07T20:56:00.004+05:30

How Cancer Develops Resistance To Treatment

Cancer cells can turn on error-prone DNA copy pathways to adapt to cancer treatment, a breakthrough study published in the journal Science has revealed. Bacteria use the same process, termed stress-induced mutagenesis, to develop antibiotic resistance.

The cells of the human body are constantly dividing, and each time need to copy a three billion-letter DNA code with high precision to ensure cell survival. The same is not true for cancers, researchers have discovered.

A team led by Professor David Thomas at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research has shown how a broad range of cancers, including melanoma, pancreatic cancer, sarcomas and breast cancer, generate a high number of errors when they copy their DNA when exposed to cancer treatments, leading to drug resistance.

"Resistance to treatment is arguably the major issue facing patients with advanced cancers, for whom even effective treatments ultimately fail. We have uncovered a fundamental survival strategy that cancer cells use to develop resistance, and which has given us new possible therapeutic strategies," says Professor Thomas, Garvan's Cancer Research Theme Leader and Director of The Kinghorn Cancer Centre.

Resisting cancer treatment

Resistance to cancer therapy affects hundreds of thousands of cancer patients every year, leading to devastating health outcomes even for the most advanced treatments.

Researchers have long known that cancer cells accumulate genetic variations that make it possible for them to evade treatment. But how this happens—and whether the process could be targeted to improve cancer treatment—has been elusive.

The authors of the current study began to investigate the underlying drivers of treatment resistance by analyzing biopsy samples from cancer patients, before and after they were treated with targeted cancer therapies. Targeted therapies block the growth of cancer by interfering with molecules that are needed for tumor growth, and are a common treatment for many forms of cancer.

They were surprised to discover that the cancer cells from patients that had received targeted therapies showed much higher levels of DNA damage than pre-treatment samples—even when these treatments did not directly damage DNA. Further, the researchers used whole genome sequencing to analyze how treatment resulted in accelerated evolution of the cancer genome.

"Our experiments revealed that cancer cells exposed to targeted therapies undergo a process called stress-induced mutagenesis—they generate random genetic variation at a much higher rate than cancer cells not exposed to anti-cancer drugs," says first author Dr. Arcadi Cipponi.

"This process is ancient—single-celled organisms, such as bacteria, use the same process to evolve when they encounter stress in their environment."

Cancer's two-step strategy for resistance

To pinpoint the mechanisms underlying stress-induced mutagenesis in human cancer cells, the researchers carried out a large-scale screen to silence every gene in cancer cells individually, looking to identify the specific pathways contributing to drug resistance.

When they silenced the gene for MTOR—a stress sensor protein—they discovered that cancer cells stopped growing, but paradoxically accelerated evolution in the presence of a cancer treatment.

"MTOR is a sensor protein that tells normal cells to stop growing because there is a stress in the environment. But we found that in the presence of a cancer treatment, MTOR signaling allowed cancer cells to change expression of genes involved in DNA repair and replication, for example shifting from high-fidelity polymerases, the enzymes that copy DNA, to production of error-prone polymerases," says Dr. Cipponi. "This resulted in more genetic variation, ultimately fuelling resistance to treatment."

The shift to low-fidelity DNA repair and replication was temporary—once cancer cells acquired resistance to a cancer treatment, they reactivated high-fidelity pathways.

"Genomic instability can itself be harmful to cells—which is why some of our chemotherapies and therapeutic radiation work. We found that once cancer cells had developed resistance to a treatment, they switched back to high-fidelity DNA polymerases to ensure the cells that had evolved resistance to treatment could survive," explains Dr. Cipponi.

New approach for cancer treatments

Combining conventional targeted cancer therapy with drugs that target DNA repair mechanisms, the researchers say, may lead to more effective therapeutic strategies.

As a proof-of-principle, the researchers tested such a drug combination in a mouse model of pancreatic cancer. By combining the cancer treatment palbociclib with rucaparib, a drug which selectively targets cells with impaired DNA repair, they were able to reduce cancer growth by almost 60% over 30 days, compared to palbociclib alone.

"Our findings have opened up new potential strategies that either prevent stress-induced mutagenesis in cancers, or are more effective in cancers that have already developed resistance," says Professor Thomas.

How To Tell If You Have A Cold And What You Can Do To Recover Faster..

The common cold affects millions of Americans each year. It can strike at any time, but most people get sick during the winter and spring.

Nutrition Guidelines For Young Children (ages 5 To 8)

There are over 200 viruses that can cause the common cold including coronaviruses and rhinoviruses. These viruses target the upper respiratory tract and trigger symptoms like cough, sore throat, runny nose, and sneezing.

A cold will usually resolve on its own without a doctor’s visit. There’s no vaccine against the viruses that cause the common cold, but there are steps you can take to speed up the recovery process and prevent future illness.

However, it’s important to make sure you have a cold and not something else, first. In this article we discuss the following:

Table of Contents

Symptoms

Symptoms will crop up 1-3 days after exposure. Then, the first several days of symptoms are often the most severe. You’ll likely experience a mix of the following:

Diagnosis

The common cold can feel much like other viral infections including the flu and COVID-19. That’s because all of these illnesses affect the upper respiratory tract.

However, there are some ways to determine if what you have is a cold or allergies or something else.

Check your symptoms

The fastest way to diagnose your illness is to check out your symptoms. For example, fever is a common symptom for the flu and COVID-19 but not for a cold. See the list of distinguishing symptoms below:

Note the time of year

After you’ve confirmed your symptoms, the time of year may also be a helpful indicator.

Colds are most common during the winter and spring months. You can also get a cold in the summer, but the symptoms are usually different.

Flu season in the US usually starts in October and ends in February.

Allergy season is most intense the first week of May, but people can get allergies through the spring, summer, and fall.

Track how long you’ve been sick

Finally, don’t forget to track how long you’ve felt ill.

Treatment

If you’ve determined that you have something besides a cold, then seek the proper treatment whether it’s getting your allergies under control or fighting the flu.

If it is a cold that’s coming on, then there are a lot of remedies out there from which to choose. Some will help speed up your recovery. Others will only relieve symptoms. And a few aren’t proven to help at all.

What works

Here are six common cold remedies that work:

1. Stay hydrated. Colds can dehydrate you and deplete you of important nutrients you need to fight the virus. Therefore, it’s important to make sure you’re drinking plenty of fluids.

Warm liquids – like broths and caffeine-free teas – have been shown to help ease symptoms, including a sore throat and runny nose, more than room-temperature liquids.

Avoid drinks that will dehydrate you like caffeinated and alcoholic beverages. Also cut out sugary drinks like soda, sports drinks, and juice. Juice may contain nutrients like vitamin C, which can help with a cold, but the excess sugar can counteract any benefits by farther dehydrating you.

Moreover, limited research in animals suggests that excess sugar may suppress the immune system, but more research is needed to determine how this could affect your recovery time.

2. Eat right. Instead of guzzling a gallon of orange juice, focus on eating foods that are rich in vitamin C, like the following:

Other foods to eat when you have a cold are those with nutrients that will boost the immune system and ramp up the healing process. These nutrients include vitamins A, E, B6, D, and minerals like zinc and iron. See below for foods rich in these nutrients:

3. Take a supplement. Being sick can sometimes make you lose your appetite. Therefore, a supplement may be in order. Focus on supplements that contain the immune-boosting vitamins and minerals you need.

Insider Reviews has a list of cold remedies, including helpful vitamin and mineral supplements.

4. Get enough sleep. When you’re asleep, that’s when your body is working its hardest to fight inflammation and infection. But it can be difficult to get the recommended amount if you’re all clogged up.

Here are some tips for how to sleep with a stuffy nose:

Sleep on your back and add an extra pillow to prop your head up so the mucus has a chance to drain while you’re sleeping.

Place a hot towel over your nose and forehead. The warmth will dilate the nasal passages and reduce the pressure from congestion as you drift off.

Run a humidifier in your room. The moist air can loosen up the mucus that’s causing congestion.

Take an antihistamine or decongestant before bed.

5. Take over-the-counter medication. OTC medications, like antihistamines and decongestants, will relieve some discomfort, but they cannot help you recover any faster.

6. Try a neti pot. Humans have been using some version of a neti pot to ease nasal congestion for about 3,000 years. It may not help speed up your recovery, but it can relieve some symptoms.

When using a neti pot, it’s extremely important to have sterile water. You can buy sterile water at the store, or you can sterilise tap water from your faucet by boiling it and letting it cool before use, or passing it through a CDC-approved filter.

What doesn’t work

Unless instructed by your doctor, it’s best to avoid the following:

Sweating it out. When you’re sick with a cold, you’re already losing fluids, and sweating will only accelerate that process. So, no, you can’t sweat out a cold, and trying to do so will likely dehydrate you and make you feel worse than you already do.

Antibiotics.Antibiotics work when you have a bacterial infection, like strep throat or a urinary tract infection (UTI). Since the common cold is a viral infection, antibiotics cannot treat it. Moreover, when taken unnecessarily, antibiotics may weaken your immune system.

Antivirals. Yes, antivirals work to help treat viral infections. However, there are no current antiviral medications specifically for the common cold. There are a couple drugs, like Tamiflu, that can help with the flu.

Herbal remedies. Small, preliminary studies suggest that herbal remedies like elderberry, garlic, and ginseng may relieve symptoms and speed up recovery. However, more research is needed to definitively determine these benefits for the general population.

Risk Factors

The average, healthy adult should recover from the common cold without a doctor’s visit.

However, the cold is a viral infection and sometimes the virus can grow out of control. That’s when you’ll experience more severe symptoms like:

Difficulty breathing

Wheezing

Rapid breathing

High fever above 101.3 degrees Fahrenheit

High fever for more than 4 days

Worsening cough, sore throat, or headache

Worsening symptoms beyond day 10 of the start of your illness

If you experience these symptoms, it’s critical that you seek medical aid immediately.

Anyone may experience severe complications from the common cold, but the groups who are most at risk of worsening symptoms are:

Infants and children younger than 6 years old

Elderly, ages 65 and up

People who are immunocompromised

Chronic smokers

Prevention

The common cold is a contagious disease. It’s usually transmitted through viral-infected mucus droplets in the air, like when someone sneezes. In fact, virus-teeming droplets from a sneeze can travel up to 26 feet.

Learn more about how contagious a single sneeze is in the video below.

You may also contract a cold virus by touching an infected surface and then your face before washing your hands. It depends on the surface, but viruses can live for hours to multiple days on a specific surface.

Therefore, the best way to prevent colds – especially at the height of cold season – is to:

There are also lifestyle changes you can make to build up your body’s defence systems. Eating right, getting enough sleep, and regular exercise can help keep your immune system healthy, making it easier for you to fend off infections when you’re exposed in the future.

Takeaways

Adults get 2-3 colds a year. You’ll likely be bed-ridden and away from work, family, and friends for a solid week.

But if you take care of yourself, request the necessary time off, and get enough sleep and nutrition, you may start to feel better even sooner than you expect.

Nutrition Guidelines For Young Children (ages 5 To 8)

Most school-aged children develop curiosity about food and new eating habits as they grow. While certain foods are essential, every child has unique dietary needs and preferences. To make sure your child gets enough of all the right stuff, see these tips for healthy snacks and meals, and follow the guidelines below.

Nutrition for big kids

Offer your child foods from all five major food groups (grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy, and protein) at every meal. You may not always be able to get him to eat the recommended amount from each group every day, but if you serve a variety of healthy food, he'll eventually get what he needs over the course of a week.

eating-habits for kids

Grains

Grains contain fiber, which aids digestion, and complex carbohydrates, which provide energy. Grains are also great sources of B vitamins, and some fortified ready-to-eat cereals provide an entire day's worth of many vitamins and minerals.

Grains come in two types – whole grains and refined grains. Whole grain products use the entire grain kernel and have more fiber, iron and B vitamins than refined grains. Examples of whole grains are whole wheat flour and bread, bulgur, oatmeal, whole cornmeal, brown rice, and whole wheat pasta.

Refined grains have been processed to give them a finer texture and a longer shelf life. Refined grain products include white flour and bread, white rice, and most kinds of pasta.

Some foods are made from both whole grains and refined grains.

The USDA recommends getting at least half of your grains from whole grains.

How much big kids need daily: About five ounce equivalents.

How much is in an ounce of grains: An ounce of grains equals one slice of bread, 1 cup of ready-to-eat cereal, or 1/2 cup of cooked pasta or cooked cereal.

Examples of the daily requirement:

1 cup oatmeal for breakfast, whole wheat bread sandwich for lunch, 1/2 cup brown rice for dinner.

One whole grain mini bagel for breakfast, five whole wheat crackers for a snack, open faced sandwich for lunch, English muffin pizza for dinner.

One whole wheat pancake for breakfast, two rye crispbreads for a snack, grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, 1/2 cup cooked bulgur for dinner.

Vegetables

Vegetables provide plenty of fiber, along with vitamins C and A and potassium. In addition, most produce contains antioxidants, disease-fighting substances that may lower the risk of cancer and heart disease later in life.

Over the course of a week, try to serve your child lots of different-colored vegetables – dark green broccoli, light green beans, orange carrots, red tomatoes, and so on. That way, you'll be sure he's getting all the nutrients each vegetable has to offer.

How much big kids need daily: About 1 1/2 cups.

How much is in a cup of vegetables: A cup of vegetables equals 1 cup of cooked or raw vegetables, 2 cups of raw leafy greens, one large tomato, or two medium carrots.

Examples of your the daily requirement:

1 cup chopped salad greens with 1/4 cup sliced cherry tomatoes for lunch, 1/4 cup cauliflower and 1/4 cup of broccoli trees for snack, and 1/4 cup cooked corn for dinner.

1/2 cup low-sodium tomato juice for breakfast, one half baked sweet potato for lunch, and 1/2 cup cooked broccoli trees for dinner.

1/2 cup cooked squash for lunch, one half small ear of corn on the cob for lunch, 1/2 cup cooked baby spinach for dinner.

Fruit

Fruit also provides plenty of fiber, along with vitamins C and A and potassium. In addition, most produce contains antioxidants, disease-fighting substances that may lower the risk of cancer and heart disease later in life.

Serve your child a colorful variety of fruits to be sure he gets as many different nutrients as possible.

How much big kids need daily: About 1 to 1 1/2 cups.

How much is in a cup of fruit: A cup of fruit equals 1 cup of fresh, frozen, or canned fruit; 1/2 cup dried fruit; one half of a large apple; one 8-inch or 9-inch banana; one medium (4-inch diameter) grapefruit.

Examples of the daily requirement:

1/2 cup sliced banana for breakfast, 1/4 cup raisins for snack, 1/2 cup sliced strawberries for dessert.

Half an apple (sliced) for snack, a quarter of an orange (sectioned) for lunch, 1/4 cup canned peaches for dessert.

Half a grapefruit for breakfast, 1/2 cup applesauce for lunch, 1/2 cup sliced berries for dessert.

Dairy

Most dairy products are wonderful sources of calcium, which gives your child strong teeth and bones. They're also excellent sources of protein – good to know if your child doesn't like meat.

Once your child is older than 2, make the switch to low-fat or fat-free milk. Your child gets the same amount of calcium and vitamin D, but less solid fat and fewer calories.

Solid fats are mainly saturated fat, which raise blood cholesterol levels. Do your child a favor by getting him in the habit of drinking low-fat milk as a youngster.

How much big kids need daily: About 2 1/2 cups.

How much is in a cup of dairy: A cup of dairy can be 1 cup milk, yogurt, or soy milk; 1 1/2 ounces, two slices, or 1/3 cup shredded hard cheese (such as cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss, or Parmesan); 2 ounces processed (American) cheese; 1/2 cup ricotta cheese; 2 cups cottage cheese; 1 cup pudding made with milk; or 1 1/2 cups ice cream.

Examples of the daily requirement:

1/2 cup milk for breakfast, 1/2 cup yogurt for snack, 1/2 cup milk and one slice cheddar cheese for lunch, 1/2 cup pudding for dessert.

1/2 cup milk for breakfast, one slice cheese for snack, 1/2 cup milk for lunch, 1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese for dinner.

1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese (in eggs or on toast) for breakfast, 1/2 cup milk for lunch, 1/2 cup milk for dinner, 1/2 cup frozen yogurt for dessert.

Protein

Meat, poultry, seafood, beans and peas, eggs, soy products, and nuts and seeds are all protein foods. (Beans and peas are also part of the vegetable food group.) Unless you're raising your child to be vegetarian, try to serve seafood at least twice a week.

Choose lean or low-fat meat and poultry, and remove skin from chicken before cooking. Protein foods give your child iron, zinc, and some B vitamins.

How much big kids need daily: About four ounce equivalents.

How much is in an ounce of protein: An ounce equivalent of protein equals 1 ounce of meat, fish, or poultry; one egg; 1 tablespoon of nut butter; 1/4 cup of cooked beans; 1/8 cup of tofu; and 1/2 ounce of nuts or seeds.

Examples of the daily requirement:

One egg for breakfast, 1 ounce sliced turkey for lunch, 1 ounce cooked ground beef, and 1/4 cup chili beans for dinner.

1/4 cup tofu scramble for breakfast, 1 tablespoon peanut butter for lunch, 1/4 cup refried beans for dinner.

1 tablespoon nut butter for breakfast, one egg for lunch, 1 ounce roast beef and 1/4 cup cooked lentils for dinner.

Oils and fats: Use sparingly

Oils aren't considered a separate food group, but they do provide some nutrients necessary for a healthy diet, and they are the major source of vitamin E in the typical American diet. Still, only small amounts of oils are necessary.

Oils are fats that are liquid at room temperature, like the vegetable oils used in cooking or salad dressings. Some foods, such as nuts, certain fish, avocados, and olives, are naturally high in oils. (Two tablespoons of peanut butter contain 2 teaspoons of oil.)

Most children get all the oils they need in the food they eat or in salad dressings or oils used for cooking. Children 5 to 8 years old need about 4 teaspoons of oil a day.

Healthy Eating Habits For Kids:

Healthy Eating Habits For Kids:

Eat dessert. Get a toy. Go out and play. Or just excuse yourself and get away from these horrific adults talking about their boring jobs.

Bribing kids to finish all of their lima beans and broccoli is a parenting crutch with deep roots.

What many don't know, though, is that a growing body of scientific evidence has suggested tactics like that one are counterproductive and could potentially lead to childhood obesity.

"Children are born with an ability to eat to their energy needs and then stop," said Alexis Wood, an assistant professor of nutrition at Baylor College of Medicine, and lead author of a new scientific statement from the American Heart Association.

Rather than focusing on how much their child eats, parents should model how they want their children to eat and create a home environment structured to foster positive habits.

That's according to the statement, "Caregiver Influences on Eating Behaviors in Young Children," which summarizes years of scientific research on the topic.

By modeling, parents can give kids a framework to help set their little ones up healthy eating habits as they mature.

In short, it's not just about what food kids eat. It's how they eat.

Don't tell your kids to eat more than they really need

There's growing science around allowing children to self-regulate their appetites to prevent reducing obesity in children.

It comes down to this: "Don't make (your kids) eat when they don't want to," Wood said. "Be responsive to their cues."

There's been an "explosion of research" in recent years supporting the scientific consensus that how children eat is very important to their health, she added.

Children between ages 2 and 5 often become picky about the foods they eat, developing an urge to show control over their bodies and their surroundings.

But in trying to coerce kids into eating healthy foods such as whole grains or vegetables, parents could inadvertently make their children overeat.

Habits like those can make kids become overweight "even if the foods are healthy," Wood said.

"During that time, if your goal as a parent is to say come hell or high water, you kids have to eat healthy, then you have to use tactics to get them to eat those foods," Wood said.

Often that means holding out rewards like dessert or video games if a child finishes all of her vegetables.

To try and kickstart healthy eating behaviors in their kids, many parents find themselves offering rewards or incentives to kids who keep eating, even if it's past the point of fullness.

Don't do that, Wood said. It's important to eat for your own internal satiety, not for an external reward.

If switching mindsets seems hard, don't worry, Wood can empathize. Taking these shortcuts happens to the best of us.

Wood once dangled the metaphorical carrot of a pack of Pokemon cards to her son if he ate some mushrooms he didn't like. (Not her best move, she confessed.)

"We're all going to do our best," she said. "I've seen how difficult this can be. None of us would say, 'We did this. It worked perfectly.'"

Pairing nutritious foods like carrots and parsnips with something sweeter, like a dipping sauce, is a way of helping kids warm up to healthier choices.

Five habits to embrace

The AHA's dietary recommendations for families sound many familiar themes, including a balanced diet with whole grains, proteins, fruits and vegetables. It's important to limit sugar and salt, according to HealthyChildren.Org, the parenting site of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Of course kids love sugary treats such as cookies or soda. They taste great, but these are empty calories and don't provide a lot of nutritional value.

Dietary salt is linked to high blood pressure and in certain demographic groups. It's important to note that dashing table salt on foods for added taste is a trick kids learn from adults. You can show them a better way. Besides just serving children foods naturally low in salt, you can instill a taste for healthier seasonings by using herbs, spices or lemon juice in your cooking instead.

Another tactic is to stay away from foods rich in salt, such as processed foods, canned vegetables, instant puddings, and bags of chips, the AAP says.

Here are some ways to instill a love for those foods — in the right amounts — in kids to foster a lifetime of healthy eating:

Be responsive to kids' appetite cues: Children are born with built-in biological processes that enable them to know when they're full. Rather than fight against nature, create a structured environment that enables kids to learn to trust their own bodies.

Eat at consistent times: Set boundaries around food. And if your kids do become overweight or obese, it's best not to single them out for a special diet, the researchers argued. Healthy eating means every person in the family participates.

Incorporate healthy foods into things they already like: You can pair healthy foods with more delectable ones. If your kids like ranch dressing, for instance, roll with that. Give them carrots and celery and broccoli to dip in the dressing to make the healthy stuff go down easier.

Model right eating behaviors: Make sure to "enthusiastically enjoy" those foods as you eat them.

Health routine during corona virus

Health routine during corona virus!

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak is upending life for families around the world. As schools and childcare centres close, many parents are finding themselves stuck at home for most of the day juggling childcare, full-time work and other competing responsibilities. Figuring out “What’s for dinner?” can be yet another daily challenge.

To make things even harder, panic buying and disruptions to food supply systems mean some foods can now be difficult to find. And for many people, unemployment and lost income are making food shopping an additional financial challenge.

While many parents are understandably looking to ready meals and processed foods as a quick and low-cost way to feed the family, there are convenient, affordable and healthy alternatives. Here are five ways to help feed your children a varied, nutritious diet that will support their growth and development, all while building healthy eating habits.

5 healthy eating tips

1. Keep up fruit and vegetable intake

2. Swap in healthy dried or canned alternatives when fresh produce is not available

3. Build up a stock of healthy snacks

4. Limit highly processed foods

5. Make cooking and eating a fun and meaningful part of your family routine

Why do people consume drugs???

Human beings have a long history of using substances to alter their consciousness. Ancient tribes made their own mind-altering substances, some of which are still used today.

For most people, using drugs is just another way of altering consciousness that is not so different from many other recreational activities. However, for the relatively small number of people who develop more compulsive drug-using patterns, drug use is not just about having fun, relaxing or for 'partying'. It usually serves a deeper purpose (such as helping enhance identity, acceptance, and reducing psychological distress or a sense of alienation).

Why are drugs harmful???

Illegal drugs aren't good for anyone, but they are particularly bad for a kid or teen whose body is still growing. Illegal drugs can damage the brain, heart, and other important organs. Cocaine, for instance, can cause a heart attack — even in a kid or teen.

While using drugs, people are also less able to do well in school, sports, and other activities. It's often harder to think clearly and make good decisions. People can do dumb or dangerous things that could hurt them — or other people — when they use drugs.

Top ten drugs ...

1.Nicotine (Tobacco)

2. Alcohol

3. Fentanyl

4. Cocaine

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (UN) 15 June 2020

2020-06-03T13:07:00.003+05:30

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (UN) 15 JUNE 2020

Virtually all countries are expected to see substantial growth in the number of older persons between 2015 and 2030, and that growth will be faster in developing regions. Because the numbers of older persons are growing, the amount of elder abuse can be expected to grow with it. While the taboo topic of elder abuse has started to gain visibility across the world, it remains one of the least investigated types of violence in national surveys, and one of the least addressed in national action plans.

The United Nations General Assembly, in its resolution 66/127, designated June 15 as World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. It represents the one day in the year when the whole world voices its opposition to the abuse and suffering inflicted to some of our older generations

Elder abuse is a global social issue which affects the health and human rights of millions of older persons around the world, and an issue which deserves the attention of the international community.

Key facts

Elder abuse is predicted to increase as many countries are experiencing rapidly ageing populations.
The global population of people aged 60 years and older will more than double, from 900 million in 2015 to about 2 billion in 2050.
Rates of abuse may be higher for older people living in institutions than in the community.

Around 1 in 6 older people experience some form of abuse, a figure higher than previously estimated and predicted to rise as populations age worldwide.
Elder abuse can lead to serious physical injuries and long-term psychological consequences.

What is Elder abuse?
In the whole world we can see abuse of elder and it is a very common problem that elder faces in their lives. Elder abuse can be seen in many forms like physical, emotional, sexual, financial and neglection also. How can we forget that elders are also human, they also deserve dignity and respect as other people in other age groups wants? Elders are also like parents and are parents of someone.

SOME KEY FACTS ABOUT WORLD BLOOD DONOR DAY 14 JUNE .........

2020-06-01T20:12:00.004+05:30

Every year on 14 June, countries around the world celebrate World Blood Donor Day(WBDD). The event, established in 2004, serves to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products, and to thank blood donors for their voluntary, life-saving gifts of blood.

Blood is an important resource, both for planned treatments and urgent interventions. It can help patients suffering from life-threatening conditions live longer and with a higher quality of life, and supports complex medical and surgical procedures. Blood is also vital for treating the wounded during emergencies of all kinds like natural disasters, accidents, armed conflicts, etc. and has an essential, life-saving role in maternal and perinatal car

WHY WORLD BLOOD DONOR DAY IS IMPORTANT

There’s always a need for more blood donations
2. Donating blood is a quick, easy, and incredibly safe process, but only a small subsection of the population are regular blood donors. Out of the people who are considered “eligible” to donate blood, only about 10 percent choose to do so. Because blood donation is an entirely voluntary process, World Blood Donor Day is an important reminder of how there can never be such a thing as “too many blood donations.” In the United States alone, someone needs blood every two seconds!
3. It saves lives
Before blood transfusions became a regular medical practice, lives were regularly lost as a result of an inadequate blood supply. Blood donations end up supporting a wide variety of medical needs, from pre-planned, minor procedures to emergency surgeries. Blood transfusions are an important part of the planned treatment of cancer patients or expecting mothers, as well as vital in case of disasters or car crashes.

Some of the Key facts about blood donation -

Of the 117.4 million blood donations collected globally, 42% of these are collected in high-income countries, home to 16% of the world’s population.
In low-income countries, up to 52% of blood transfusions are given to children under 5 years of age; whereas in high-income countries, the most frequently transfused patient group is over 65 years of age, accounting for up to 75% of all transfusions.
Based on samples of 1000 people, the blood donation rate is 32.6 donations in high-income countries, 15.1 donations in upper-middle-income countries, 8.1 donations in lower-middle-income countries and 4.4 donations in low-income countries.
An increase of 11.6 million blood donations from voluntary unpaid donors has been reported from 2008 to 2015. In total, 78 countries collect over 90% of their blood supply from voluntary unpaid blood donors; however, 58 countries collect more than 50% of their blood supply from family/replacement or paid donors.
Only 50 of 173 reporting countries produce plasma-derived medicinal products (PDMP) through the fractionation of plasma collected in the reporting country. A total of 83 countries reported that all PDMP are imported, 24 countries reported that no PDMP were used during the reporting period, and 16 countries did not respond to the question
