Declaration of Mental Health Emergency among Children in 2021Wayne Macfadden
Formerly based in North Dakota, Wayne Macfadden, MD, is a Psychiatrist who brings more than three decades of experience to his position as the President of International Psychiatric Services. Wayne Macfadden, MD, has been a principal investigator and co-investigator in various pharmacological clinical trials during his career. One of these trials included a safety study of drugs for adolescents and children with mental health disorders.
In a joint statement released on October 20, the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the Children's Hospital Association declared an emergency of worsening “child and adolescent mental health” that is intrinsically linked to the tension caused by COVID-19, as well as the continuous fight for racial justice. As a result of COVID-19, about 140,000 children in the United States have lost a primary or secondary caregiver. The impact on BIPOC children is disproportionately large. As suicide rates among children and adolescents increased, doctors report caring for young people with “soaring rates” of despair, anxiety, trauma, loneliness, and suicidality.
Dr. Wayne Macfadden notes this emergency declaration emphasizes the need to watch out for early warning signs of mental health problems in children. The organizations are calling on legislators to come up with solutions that would strengthen early intervention efforts and increase funding for mental health resources.

The novel coronavirus has spread briskly around the world due to its high level of infectiousness. On March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization(WHO) declared the viral outbreak a global pandemic. This paper analyzes recent political innovation taking place within the current COVID-19 climate. To answer this question, we conducted a survey and researched politics prior to the outbreak, during, and hypothesized the effects to come within our future government. Our results showed trivial belief that the United States government lacked the proper vaccine or policies and procedures to combat the reverberations caused by the virus or any form of outbreak despite the use of simulations to prepare. Instead COVID-19 has wreaked havoc amongst the American government. Currently, political officials have begun attempts to repair the damage by conducting a series of bailouts and other incentives. Loss of insurance and increase in unemployment has resulted in the hypothesis that the government will shift from private to public sectors in response to public outrage. It is hoped that this study will awaken American citizens to vote for political officials who will implement policies and procedures that will properly prepare and react to the ongoing and future outbreaks.
Slides from the Risk workshop led as the second part of a four-part series given at CoCo Minneapolis by Kate O'Reilly to support Google for Entrepreneurs' #40forward initiate, which aims to rethink the gender gap in startups and entrepreneurial communities. Two exercises were done within the session to better connect the attendees -- another goal is to create a supportive, ongoing community that meets regularly and communicates daily for better progress.

When our minds perceive direct threats our ability to think clearly is reduced so that we are more likely to respond with 'pro survival' behavioral shortcuts.
The first part of this paper describes how anti-vaccination groups
communicate and how social networks connect concerned parents
in new ways. The second part emphasizes the role of social media
monitoring in strategic communication, based on understanding
audience needs.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

Risk Communication Env Health
1. RISK COMMUNICATION
ENVIRONMENTAL
HEALTH ISSUES
Dr Josep Vidal-Alaball
Public Health Medicine
July 2006
2. Risk Communication
• Is an interactive process of exchange of
information
• People’s fears should be taken seriously and
steps should be taken to address them even if
they are not necessary from a technical
perspective
• Management of Environmental Health issues
requires more than technical expertise. Social
issues such as house prices, house
ownership or stigma of the neighbourhood
are also important and should be considered
from day one
2
3. Risk perception
• Clearly, emotions play a large role in public
perception of risk
• When people become aware of a threat, they
are naturally inclined to:
– Fear the unknown
– Want to maintain control
– Protect home and family
– Be alienated by dependence on others (government,
industry officials)
– Protect their belief in a just world
3
4. Risk perception cont.
• Experts and responsible authorities often think
that the perception of the public is mistaken and
irrational.
• They then try to correct the mistaken perception
by the dissemination of information containing
the "true" facts about the health risks.
• This nearly always fails. Technical measures
alone are not enough to ease people’s worries !
4
5. • Risks are generally more worrying if
perceived:
– To be involuntary
– As inequitably distributed, some benefit while others suffer
– As inescapable by taking personal precautions
– To arise from an unfamiliar or novel source
– To result from man-made, rather than natural sources
– To cause hidden and irreversible damage with onset many years
later
– To pose particular danger to small children or pregnant women or
more generally future generations
– To threaten a form of death (or illness/injury) arousing particular
dread
– To damage identifiable rather than anonymous victims
– To be poorly understood by science
– As subject to contradictory statements from responsible sources (or
even worse, from the same source), or from untrustworthy source.
– Invisible or undetectable, catastrophic, memorable, uncertain,
uncontrollable or unethical risk. 5
6. Risk Comparisons
• Often, an involuntary risk is compared with a voluntary
one (e.g. the risk from nearby incinerator is compared
with smoking or dietary habits). If such a comparison is
done in the spirit of minimising the importance of the
involuntary risk, it will generate anger.
• The value of risk comparisons is also limited by the fact
that risks tend to accumulate in people's minds. No
matter how small the new risk, people are inclined to see
it as simply one more unwelcome vexation to add to their
already heavy burden of coping with modern-day
problems.
6
7. Some problems….
• Health Authorities: Very late engagement
with unrealistic expectation to respond
• Lack of consultation can result in
– inaccurate health messages
– raised expectation
– unnecessary community concern
7
8. Some solutions ….
• Openness and transparency
– Trust should be based on mutual respect
– Communication should be open and honest
– An open communication process with the public and
the media can be achieved by organising public
meetings, issuing press reports, sending letters to
residents, fact sheets, setting up internet sites, etc
– The language used should be understandable for the
general public
8
9. Some solutions …. cont.
• Do not let the media take control of the situation.
Ensure that key people responsible for
communication are always available and ensure
a smooth hand-over between various people
involved in the case.
• Engage early with Health Authorities!
