My grandmother, my dadi amma, was a deeply conversational person, someone who carried within her a natural warmth, an ease with people that did not depend on shared backgrounds or formal introductions. She had a way of sitting with someone and, within minutes, dissolving the distance that usually exists between strangers.

Los protocolos de cuarentena y la identificación temprana pueden ser clave para frenar la propagación de este virus en espacios confinados como los barcos De Patagonia a Canarias: cronología del crucero afectado por el brote de hantavirus La actual alerta sanitaria generada por el brote de hantavirus a bordo de una embarcación nos sitúa ante un escenario epidemiológico tan inusual como complejo. A diferencia de otros patógenos, el hantavirus es una enfermedad zoonótica que se transmite principalmente a través de la inhalación de aerosoles procedentes de excrementos, orina o saliva de roedores infectados. La transmisión de persona a persona es extremadamente rara (limitada casi exclusivamente a algunas cepas sudamericanas como el virus Andes). Por lo tanto, el problema principal en un barco no es solo el contacto entre los pasajeros o la tripulación, sino la exposición a un entorno cerrado donde el vector (normalmente ratas o ratones y sus deposiciones) podría estar conviviendo de manera invisible con los humanos en un espacio donde el aire circula de forma interna. Aislamiento y cuarentena no son lo mismo

• Calls for nationwide audit, seizure of non-compliant, falsely labelled stocks • Blames Drap, provincial authorities for ‘catastrophic failure’ KARACHI: Warning of a looming “man-made epidemic”, the Pakistan Medical Association (PMA) on Thursday expressed serious concern over the widespread manufacture and use of reusable syringes despite a countrywide ban and demanded an audit of all syringe-manufacturing units and the seizure of all non-compliant stocks. The association also called for a high-level inquiry into how “falsely labelled” syringes passed regulatory checks and entered the supply chain, while urging stringent legal action against clinics and practitioners found using or possessing banned conventional syringes. “In addition, the government must initiate an emergency awareness campaign to educate the public on identifying genuine auto-disable syringes,” the PMA said in a statement. It directly held the Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (Drap) and provincial health authorities responsible for a “catastrophic failure”. “It is not merely a bureaucratic lapse; it is a direct assault on the lives of millions of Pakistanis. The PMA stands with the victims of this negligence and warns the government that unless immediate corrective measures are taken, the current rise in HIV cases will evolve into an uncontrollable national emergency,” it added.
