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!
Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Topnotch Medical Boards Review Center
3. From my experiences as and the perspective of
a Municipal Health Officer, I would like to:
Contextualize the practice of Community
Medicine in terms of the state of the
Philippine Health Care System
KEY CONCEPTS:
Devolution
Inequity
Health Systems
4. From my experiences as and the perspective of
a Municipal Health Officer, I would like to:
Give a discussion on the Challenging
Realities of practicing Community
Medicine in the Philippines

CHALLENGING REALITIES in my work on
the “frontlines” of Philippine Health Care
5. Hindi Lang Kuwento Si Rosario…
I hope to help my newly-licensed physician
colleagues to realize that there is more to Community
Medicine than “Cough and Colds”…
FORGET THAT Prev Med Exam.
Hindi benign ang Community Medicine.
Lalo na dito sa Pilipinas…
Lalo na para sa milyon-milyong Pilipinong gaya ni
Rosario…
Lalo’t higit para sa ating Manggagamot na Pilipino
6. In Line with my Personal Advocacy of Filipino Human Health
Resource Capacity Building and Development, I Would Like to:
Inspire and at the same time, challenge newly-licensed
Filipino Physicians to not only serve the Philippines and its
people; but to serve with MEANING
Serve the UNDERSERVED
Go beyond traditional medicine/clinical practice
Re-evaluate measures of success in the field of medicine/health
care
Be health systems development practitioners
Show that beyond the “feels”, a career in Community
Medicine is a viable and vibrant one.

34. Primary Health Care
What good does it do
to treat a person’s
illness if he/she will
return to the conditions
that led to the illness in
the first place?
(paraphrasing F. Baum)
39. That Thing Called “Devolution”
RA 7160 (Local Government Code
of 1991)
The act by which the Philippine
Government “devolved” basic
services (health services,
agriculture extension, livelihood
development, forest
management, barangay roads
and social welfare) to Local
Government Units (barangay,
municipality/city, province)
40. Devolution
Implementation of Devolution
in 1992:
Management and delivery
of health services
From DOH to locally elected
provincial, city and municipal
governments
ARMM – exception
Retained its centralized
system
4 Essential Health
System Functions
Service provision
Resource generation
Financing
Stewardship
41. Major Features of RA 7160 (LGC of 1991)
Devolved Basic Services
On Health and Social Services:
1. Implementation of programs and
projects on primary health care,
maternal and child care and
communicable and non-communicable
disease control services;
2. Purchase of medicines, medical supplies
and equipment needed to carry out
services;
3. Social welfare services which include
programs and projects on child and
youth welfare, family and community
welfare, women’s welfare, elderly and
disabled persons welfare
Negative effects on health
care:
Vulnerability to patronage and
traditional politics
Great variability in health care
program planning,
implementation and M&E across
LGUs
Highly dependent on motivated,
innovative, inspired and morally
upright human resources
Some LGUs are “more equal
than others”
43. The Department of Health (DOH)
Mandate (E.O. No. 119, Sec. 3):
The Department of Health (DOH) shall be responsible
for the following: formulation and development of
national health policies, guidelines, standards and
manual of operations for health services and
programs; issuances of rules and regulations, licenses
and accreditations; promulgation of national health
standards, goals, priorities and indicators;
development of special health programs and projects

programs. The primary function of the Department of
Health is the promotion, protection, preservation or
restoration of the health of the people through the
provision and delivery of health services and through
the regulation and encouragement of providers of
health goods and services.
THE DOH IS (should be) THE LEAD AGENCY

81. With you out there, you CAN and WILL make a DIFFERENCE!
THE BOTTOMLINE…
82. The Challenge…
I am not saying everyone should be
a Municipal Health Officer
We should respond to the needs of
the country in terms of health
care/health systems:
Public Health
Specialized/Clinical Care
Health Policy
Health Governance
Health Financing
Relevant Health Research
Dreams and aspirations ARE
compatible with serving the
underserved
83. The Challenge…
At the end of the day, it’s
all about the principles of
Equity and Justice and
our subsequent role in
ensuring these for every
Filipino
Whatever kind of doctor
we choose to be.
Wherever we may find
ourselves in.
84. The Challenge…
For the Philippines and
the Filipino…
How much are we
willing TO DO?
How hard are we
willing TO TRY?
How far are we willing
TO GO?
