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!

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Council for the European Commission IDEAS
project on inclusive local decision-making in
Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Jordan,
Lebanon and Ukraine.
3. Nothing about us without us
Disability is a situation, caused by social conditions,
which requires for its elimination the following:
›
That disabled people should, with the advice and help of
others, assume control over their own lives.
› That professionals, experts and others who seek to help
must be committed to promoting such control by disabled
people.
›

4. Participation is the means and
the ends
―As disabled persons have equal rights, they also have
equal obligations. It is their duty to take part in the
building of society‖ – UN World Programme of Action
on Disability 1981
Participation is about gaining power and ‗being in the
world‘
It is about transforming attitudes and expectations

7. UNCRPD
Considering that persons with disabilities should have
the opportunity to be actively involved in decisionmaking processes about policies and programmes,
including those directly concerning them
In the development and implementation of legislation
and policies to implement the present Convention, and
in other decision-making processes concerning issues
relating to persons with disabilities, States Parties shall
closely consult with and actively involve persons with
disabilities, including children with disabilities, through
their representative organizations (Article 4 (3))
Civil society, in particular persons with disabilities and
their representative organizations, shall be involved and
participate fully in the monitoring process. (Article
33.3)
10. Consultation, involvement and ‗coproduction’
Consultation – what do you think about these
proposals?
Involvement – can you help us to work out what to do
and help us to do it?

34. Making the case for involvement
& co-production
Harnessing the voice of disabled people locally has
both quantitative and qualitative benefits
Data from Department of Health on LINks
(HealthWatch from 2013), which empower people in
the community to have their say or influence local
health and social care services, suggests savings of
£4.10 for every £1 invested in LINks
Studies on community development which harness
local community‘s social capital suggest this approach
can save between £3 to £3.80 for every £1 invested
35. Making the case for involvement
& co-production
The user-led mental health Personalisation Forum
Group is estimated to save some £250,000 per year
through using users‘ social capital rather than only
statutory services
Demos reported that coproduction between DPULOs
and local authorities helped to mitigate or minimize
effects of difficult decisions regarding budget changes
and/or de-commissioning
Beyond social care, there is a higher incidence of
reporting of disability hate crime where independent
support services through DPULOs exist
