Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.

2. The Jackson cross cylinder is a
spherocylindrical lens used in clinical
refraction. It is the combination of a plus
cylinder and a minus cylinder having axes
90deg apart and equal power.
3. • So it may be ± 0.25 spherical and ± 0.50
cylinder
• or ± 0.50 spherical and ± 1.0 cylinder
• If VA is 6/9 or better use ± 0.25 and if it is
6/12/ or 6/18 use ± 0.50
4. Which of the following represents a Jackson
cross cylinder?
• a. -2.00 +4.00 x 180
• b. -1.00 +3.00 x 90
• c. +2.00 +3.00 x 180
• d. +1.00 -1.00 x 90
5. The Jackson cross cylinder is a lens made of on
cylinder and half of cylinder is spherical of
opposite magnitude placed at 90deg apart; the
spherical equivalent of the resulting lens is
zero High power Jackson cross cylinders are
especially useful in refining the refraction in
low vision patients.
6. Jackson cross-cylinder in primary orientation. The
handle is down to the right and at 45º to the
horizontal.
7. Red dot: Axis of
minus cylinder
White dot: Axis of
the plus cylinder
This is the USA notation,
UK notation is opposite
8. Handle is attached between the two marked axes,
which enables the lens to be "twirled" before the eye
by rotation of the handle.
In this manner, the positions of the minus and plus
axes are interchanged rapidly and alternately.
The common term used for the rotating the handle is
known as flipping. Hence, the JCC is often termed as
flip-cross cylinder.
9. 1) Adjust sphere to the most plus or least minus
gives the best visual acuity
2)Use test figures that are 1 or 2 lines larger than
the patient’s best visual acuity
3)If cylindrical correction is not already present,
look for astigmatism by testing with the cross
cylinder at axes 90 deg. and 180 deg. If none is
found at there test at 45 and 135 deg.
10. 4) Refine axis first. Position the cross-cylinder
axes 45 deg. From the principal meridians of the
correcting cylinder. Determine the preferred flip
choice and rotate the cylinder axis toward the
corresponding axis of the cross cylinder. Repeat
until the 2 flip choice appear equal.
11. 5. Refine cylinder power:
Align the cross-cylinder axes with the
principal meridians of the correcting
cylinder. Determine the preferred flip
choice and add or subtract cylinder power
according to the preferred position of the
cross cylinder.
12. Compensate for the change in position of
the circle of least confusion by adding half
as much sphere in the opposite direction
each time the cylinder power is change
13. 6. Refine sphere, cylinder axis and
cylinder power until no further change is
necessary
14. • Always refine cylinder axis before
refining cylinder power. This sequence is
necessary because the correct axis may be
found in the presence of an incorrect
power, but the full cylinder power is
found only in the presence of the correct
axis.
