In the battle against South Dakota’s escalating Syphilis Crisis, frontline workers like Broghammer, an STI case manager at Oyate Health Center in Rapid City, are armed with crucial tools
This interactive webinar is part of the world tour series designed by the World Health Organization's Patients for Patient Safety (PFPS) Global Network and hosted by Patients for Patient Safety Canada, the patient-led program of the Canadian Patient Safety Institute, a WHO Collaborating Centre on Patient Safety and Patient Engagement.
Since the emergency of COVID-19 pandemics, many countries have been encountered a multitude of challenges. People have been facing health related and other social consequences throughout the world. It is too early to know the aggravated impact of COVID-19 on people living in resource-limited setting, like east Africa countries. In these countries, besides direct public health impact, the COVID-19 pandemic has provoked social stigma and discriminatory behaviors against people of certain ethnic backgrounds as well as anyone perceived to have been in contact with the virus. Social stigma can negatively affect those with the disease, as well as their caregivers, family, friends and communities.COVID-19 pandemics have also been provoked great impacts on daily social consumptions such as food and other food supplements. In addition, COVID-19 pandemic were overshadowed endemics diseases such as malaria, TB and HIV related care and antenatal care services as well as other non-communicable diseases prevention and control. Social stigma coupled with other consequences could result in more severe health problems, can undermine social cohesion and prompt possible social isolation of groups, which might contribute to a situation where the virus is more, not less, likely to spread and difficulties controlling a disease outbreak. Therefore, how we communicate about COVID-19 is critical in supporting people to take effective action to help combat the disease and to avoid fuelling fear and stigma. An environment needs to be created in which the disease and its impact can be discussed and addressed openly, honestly and effectively. This is a message for government, media and local organizations working on the COVID-19 infections.
The PowerPoint "COVID-19 Pandemic" by Arnav Gupta is about COVID-19. It talks about where it started, how it spreads, and what countries did to stop it. It explains how it changed life and work, the problems for doctors, and how vaccines were made and given to people. It looks at new types of the virus and health problems after COVID. It ends by saying how important it is for countries to work together and learn from this.

What is Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19?)
Towards the end of the year 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) got was informed of pneumonia cases in Wuhan City, China, of unknown cause. A novel coronavirus got was identified as the leading cause by the Chinese government authorities on 7th January 2020, whereby it got named “2019-nCoV” (Wu et al. 2020). Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large viruses’ family causing illness which that ranges from the common cold to more severe diseases. A novel coronavirus (nCoV) happens to be a new strain and has not got been identified previously in humans (Wu et al. 2020). Across the globe, countries have heightened their surveillance to diagnose the potential new cases of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19 quickly. OK – here you need a clear thesis that seems to be the impact of gender and treatment of the corona virus. First, use of women and their role in this crisis, second, specific policies in the U.S need amendments to incorporate the gendered impacts of disease outbreaks, third, risks associated with artificial intelligence in the study of gendered impacts of COVID-19.
More individuals infected with this novel coronavirus have since got identified in China, as well as cases imported into other states, European Region incorporated. European Region countries get encouraged to continue in the preparation in case the new virus gets imported (Lu et al. 2020). WHO has to ensure guidance for all countries gets published, including how the sick people get to get monitored, samples testing, treatment of the patients, infection control in health centres, right samples maintenance, and communication with the public (Lu et al. 2020). The standard recommendation to have the infection spread prevented for travellers in or from areas affected include covering nose and mouth when sneezing and coughing, hand washing, and avoiding close contact with individuals showing respiratory illness symptoms.
What are the dangers of ignoring the contribution of women in surveillance, detection, and prevention of diseases?
Throughout history, women’s central role in the society has ensured progress, stability, and developments which are long-term of the nations across the globe. Globally, research shows that 43% of the agricultural labor force of the world get comprised of women which in some countries it raises to 70%. It gets accepted that agriculture can be the growth engine in almost every state (Ma et al. 2020). Therefore, women show great potential when it comes to the fighting of the global epidemic currently, coronavirus disease, COVID-2019, and ignoring the women will lead to failure in some sectors such as detention, surveillance, and prevention of COVID-2019.
Primarily, women are the elders and children’s caretakers in every country of the world. The international studies demonstrate that whe.

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and mental illness in general and Alzheimer’s disease in particular are the leading causes of death and disability globally. Long associated with affluent Western standards of living, NCDs are now a global problem. While rich countries are better equipped to deal with chronic diseases, they are far more deadly in poor countries. Growing numbers of old people and the spread of middle-class lifestyles make NCDs more prevalent than infectious diseases. Globalization also contributes to the growth of NCDs by helping expand the global middle class and by promoting fast foods, sugary drinks, alcohol, smoking, processed foods, and sedentary lifestyles. A major global health threat that undermines efforts to cure diseases is the emergence of germs that are resistant to antibiotics. This is due mainly to the excessive use of antibiotics in medicine and agriculture.
Infectious diseases are intertwined with numerous global issues and are inseparable from political, economic, and cultural components of globalization. Ethnic conflicts make populations vulnerable to infectious diseases. Fighting contributes to the collapse of public services, which means that many people die from what would ordinarily be treatable diseases, such as diarrhea and respiratory infections. Conflicts also create refugees, overcrowding, and unsanitary conditions, thereby creating environments conducive to the spread of infectious diseases.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Addressing South Dakota’s Syphilis Crisis
1. Addressing South Dakota’s
Syphilis Crisis
(Source-Vox15-05-2024)
In the battle against South Dakota’s escalating syphilis crisis, frontline workers like Broghammer, an STI
case manager at Oyate Health Center in Rapid City, are armed with crucial tools: syringes of penicillin,
rapid STI tests, and condoms. Their tireless efforts underscore the severity of the situation and the urgent
need for intervention.
Syphilis Crisis, a bacterial infection primarily transmitted through sexual contact, poses a significant public
health challenge. While it is curable with prompt treatment, untreated syphilis can lead to severe health
complications, including transmission from mothers to unborn babies.
The Alarming Statistics:
South Dakota has witnessed a staggering surge in adult syphilis cases, with a 2,493% increase reported in
2022 compared to the five-year median. The state’s alarming rise in syphilis cases earned it the dubious
distinction of having the highest rate of syphilis Crisis, infections nationwide at the time. While there was a
slight decrease in cases in 2023, the prevalence of syphilis remains a pressing concern.
Of particular concern is the rise in congenital syphilis Crisis cases, with South Dakota reporting a 150%
increase in 2022 compared to the previous year. Native American communities, in particular, have borne
the brunt of this epidemic, with approximately 90% of congenital syphilis cases occurring among
Indigenous babies.
Challenges amidst the Pandemic:
2. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated existing challenges in addressing STIs, including syphilis.
Overwhelmed healthcare systems, coupled with patient reluctance to seek screening and treatment,
hindered efforts to contain the spread of the disease. Rural communities faced additional barriers to
accessing care, compounding the impact of the pandemic on public health initiatives.
Recognizing the gravity of the situation, tribal leaders and health officials have called on the federal
government to declare a public health emergency in the region. Such a declaration would enable enhanced
resources, funding, and support for vital initiatives such as contact tracing, bolstering efforts to combat the
syphilis epidemic.
Educating and Empowering Communities:
Amidst the challenges posed by syphilis, education and prevention remain crucial strategies. Promoting
awareness of the disease, advocating for safe sex practices, and encouraging regular testing are essential
steps in stemming its spread. By empowering individuals with knowledge and resources, we can work
towards a future where syphilis is no longer a looming threat to public health.
As South Dakota grapples with its syphilis crisis, concerted efforts from healthcare providers, community
leaders, and policymakers are essential to safeguarding the well-being of all residents. Only through
collaborative action can we effectively combat this epidemic and prevent its devastating consequences.
