WHO declares Omicron as variant of concern?
It was 26 November 2021 that WHO declared that the world was facing a new variant of concern: Omicron.21K (omicron) is of primarily concern because of the detection of large number of mutation in its spike gene Figure 1. Most of these variants plays an important role in antibody recognition and ACE2 binding and are in the N-terminal or receptor-binding domain.
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.

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!

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.

• Introduction
• Coronavirus essay in English – Corona Virus which is commonly known as COVID-
19 is an infectious disease that causes illness in the respiratory system in humans.
The term Covid 19 is sort of an acronym, derived from “Novel Corona Virus
Disease 2019”. Corona Virus has affected our day to day life. This pandemic has
affected millions of peoples, who are either sick or are being killed due to the
spread of this disease.
5.
6. ESSAY ON COVID-19
• Symptoms of COVID-19
• The most common symptoms of this viral infection are fever, cold, cough,
bone pain, and respiratory problems.
• Apart from these symptoms like Fatigue, Sore throat, muscle pain, loss of
smell or taste can also be seen in Corona Virus patients.
•
•
7. COVID-19
Origin of Coronavirus
Coronavirus (or COVID-19) was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan city of
China. In March 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared the Corona
Virus outbreak a pandemic.
8.
9. CONTINUES…..
• Due to Corona Virus, the Government of Pakistan under Prime Minister Imran
Khan announced nationwide lockdown 2020, limiting the movement of the
entire225.2 (2021)million population of Pakistan as a preventing measure against
the Coronavirus pandemic in Pakistan.
10. CONTINUE…..
• As a result, in Pakistan, all educational institutions and
almost every commercial establishment had to be
shut down.
• International, as well as intra-state travel, was banned.
Pakistan suspended all tourist visas, as a majority of
the confirmed cases were linked to other countries.
11.
12. CONTI…..
• Thousands of migrant workers were walking across Pakistan to reunite with their
families in their native.
• Pakistani immigrant workers during the COVID-19 pandemic have faced multiple
hardships.
• With the closure of factories and workplaces due to lockdown, millions of migrant
workers had to deal with the loss of income, food shortages, and uncertainty.
13. CONTI….
• The various industries and sectors are affected by the cause of this disease
including the pharmaceuticals industry, power sector, educational institution,
tourism.
• This Coronavirus creates drastic effects on the daily life of citizens, as well as on
the global economy.
14. CONCLUSION
•
• All the governments, health organizations, and
other authorities are continuously focusing on
identifying the cases affected by the COVID-19.
• Healthcare professionals face lots of difficulties in
maintaining the quality of healthcare these days
15. CONTI…
• With the world facing the coronavirus crisis, the
pandemic has wreaked havoc and altered human
lives forever.
• Its impact and the untoward consequences will be
felt long after the virus diminishes.
16. CONTI….
• Yet, in times like this, hope is a powerful
healer.
• Mankind stands united in its struggle against
the Covid 19 pandemic and life will surely
triumph.
17. VACCINATION
• Since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared
the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic back in March
2020, the virus has claimed more than 2.5 million lives
globally with upwards of 113 million cases being
confirmed by laboratory tests (March 2021).
18.
19. CONTI…
• Fortunately, the beginning of 2021 saw numerous vaccines
given emergency approval and begin their roll out in
countries across the world..
• As of March 2021, just shy of 300 million vaccine doses
had been administered worldwide.
• The figures give hope of a return to ‘normal’. However,
global COVID-19 vaccination faces several challenges
which may impact its success.
20. EFFICACY OF COVID-19 VACCINATION
• Currently, a total of seven COVID-19 vaccines available across three platforms
have been approved and are being rolled out across the globe.
• However, some question the efficacy of these vaccines, especially given the
emergence of new strains of the virus.
• Vaccines must be effective at significantly reducing the spread of the virus for
them to be successful.
21.
22. CONTI…
• Research has demonstrated that the Moderna
and the mRNA-based Pfizer vaccines are 94-95%
effective, and these figures have proven true
even in trials studying those at high risk and the
elderly.
23. CONTI…
• It is a common misconception that this means 95% who get
the vaccine are protected from the disease, leaving 5%
unprotected.
• If this were true, in a population of 100,000 were vaccinated
this would lead to 5,000 people contracting the virus and
developing the disease over three months.
• This rate is similar to the current UK COVID-19 case rate.
24. PUBLIC OPINION ABOUT VACCINATION
• One major potential barrier to the success of COVID-19 vaccinations is a
negative public opinion of the vaccine.
• A June 2020 survey found that 71.5% of people would be very or somewhat
likely to take a COVID-19 vaccine, leaving almost a third less accepting of the
vaccine.
• If significant portions of the population were to reject the vaccine, this could
have a serious impact on the vaccine’s potential efficacy at controlling the
spread of COVID-19.
• Some populations, in particular, have low acceptance rates; in Russia, for
example, less than 55% of those surveyed would accept the vaccine.
25. CONTI…
• While the current vaccines have proven to be highly effective
against the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome
coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strain that has caused the
pandemic, recent data has highlighted the emergence of
several mutational strains.
