The number of AIDS cases rose steadily throughout 1982, mostly affecting the gay community. Reports from the CDC in December 1982 announced the first case of AIDS in a child who received a blood transfusion, and cases in infants born to IV drug users. In May 1983, the Department of Health and Human Services declared AIDS the top medical priority but finding effective treatments was expected to take years. By June 1989, over 106,000 AIDS cases had been reported in the US with 61,000 deaths, though treatments were improving and public acceptance of both the disease and homosexuality was increasing.

AIDS†lyr in the 1980's
In the early 1980s, cases of rare cancers and infections were reported in young, gay men in major US cities. This cluster of diseases was later named AIDS. By 1982, over 450 cases had been reported across 23 US states. The disease was found to be transmissible between homosexual men and intravenous drug users. Rock Hudson's death from AIDS in 1985 was a major event that increased public awareness of the disease. By the late 1980s, drugs were in development to treat AIDS, but prejudice against victims remained widespread.

The document discusses the estimated death rate of the coronavirus and factors that influence it. The UK government estimates the death rate is between 0.5-1%, though it may be lower because not all cases are confirmed. Older individuals and those with preexisting conditions are at higher risk, with the death rate almost 10 times higher for those over 80. However, most cases are mild. The true death rate is difficult to determine as many cases are mild and unreported, and rates vary depending on available healthcare and how extensively countries test.
Dengue fever
Global warming is causing tropical diseases carried by mosquitoes and ticks to spread farther and increase in frequency. Dengue fever is a viral disease transmitted by day-biting mosquitoes that infects 50-100 million people annually. It causes fever, pain and potentially internal bleeding and death. While historically present in the southern US, it was largely eliminated after WWII but has reappeared in recent years in Texas and Florida due to rising temperatures allowing mosquito habitats to expand. Chikungunya virus causes similar symptoms and is also spread by mosquitoes found in the US.

This study found significant seasonal variation in sepsis hospitalization rates in Victoria, Australia over a 10-year period. Rates of sepsis admissions were highest in winter and lowest in summer, with an 18.1% increase from summer to winter. Explanations for this pattern include increased viral infections like influenza in winter and the effect of photoperiodicity on immune function. Understanding seasonal trends in sepsis can help optimize healthcare resource allocation.

The 1918 Flu Pandemic
The document discusses the 1918 flu pandemic, which originated from a virus that underwent an antigenic shift allowing it to spread easily between humans. It killed 20-50 million people worldwide and 675,000 in the US. The pandemic occurred in three waves, with a severe second wave in the fall of 1918. Even today, influenza remains a threat as the virus can undergo antigenic drift and shifts, sometimes resulting in new pandemic strains against which humans have little immunity. Monitoring efforts focus on tracking current flu strains and outbreaks.
Abstract congress covid 19.docx30
COVID 19 is a contagious disease caused by a betacoronavirus, which began in Wuhan, China in late 2019. Until now, this new illness has affected more than 6 million people worldwide, and has claimed more than 300 000 human lives. Governments around the globe were faced with the coronavirus pandemic crisis and designed strategies to slow or halt viral transmission. Measures undertaken included enforcing countrywide lockdowns, banning mass gatherings, closing schools and businesses and halting international travel.
Swine Flu
The document provides information about influenza (H1N1) and discusses the risks and effectiveness of vaccination. It notes that influenza is a virus causing respiratory illness, and H1N1 originated in Mexico in 2009. While governments are promoting mass vaccination, the document argues that past studies show vaccines have little effect and are not properly tested for safety. It recommends alternative prevention methods like chiropractic care and a healthy lifestyle instead of vaccination.
Explainations for 20th Century Tuberculosis Decline- How the Public Gets It W...
- The study surveyed 705 adults to assess their perceptions of why tuberculosis mortality declined in the 20th century. Approximately 52% attributed the decline to "modern medicine" while 22% attributed it to "vaccination." Few respondents cited public health interventions or improved social conditions.
- In reality, historical analysis shows the majority of the tuberculosis decline was due to improved social conditions like better housing and public health interventions rather than medical advances alone. The disease was already declining before treatments like antibiotics were developed.
- The public overly credits modern medicine and underappreciates the role of public health and social factors, which could hinder support for policies addressing social determinants of health.

Strebel 2019 measles nejm
This document discusses a case of a 38-year-old man who presents with fever and cough, and later develops a rash. The physician suspects measles. Measles is highly contagious and was eliminated in the US in 2000, but cases have been increasing since 2016 due to imported cases. Measles presents with fever and rash, and is diagnosed through IgM antibody or PCR testing of specimens. Treatment involves supportive care and vitamin A for severe cases. Prevention relies on two doses of MMR vaccine, which have reduced global measles deaths by over 20 million since 2000. However, outbreaks continue to occur in undervaccinated communities.

This document lists and provides brief descriptions of five original papers that form the basis of the thesis. Paper I examines TB knowledge and health-seeking behavior among rural Vietnamese adults with cough for at least three weeks. Paper II assesses TB knowledge and treatment awareness among new pulmonary TB patients in northern and central Vietnam. Paper III surveys TB knowledge and reported practices among basic health care staff in rural Vietnam. Paper IV studies the prevalence and case detection of smear-positive pulmonary TB using population-based data from Vietnam. Paper V examines excess mortality and TB among individuals with prolonged cough using longitudinal population data from Vietnam.The 2nd Covid-19 wave in South Africa: Transmissibility & a 501.V2 variant
- A new SARS-CoV-2 variant called 501.V2 has emerged in South Africa and contains 3 mutations in the receptor binding domain, including N501Y.
- Preliminary results show this variant is associated with higher viral loads, suggesting potentially increased transmission. It has spread widely across South Africa and may be transmitting faster than previous variants.
- More research is needed to determine where it originated, whether it causes more severe disease, if it can reinfect people, and if current vaccines will be effective against it. Ongoing genomic surveillance and studies are important to characterize this new variant and inform the public health response.
H1 n1 epidemic ac november 2009
1. An unexpected epidemic of H1N1 influenza began in Mexico in March 2009, first appearing as influenza-like illnesses in various states. By April 23rd, over 800 cases and 59 deaths had been reported in Mexico City alone.
2. The Mexican government initially said the situation was under control but suddenly closed schools and recommended masks and handwashing on the evening of April 23rd as cases rose rapidly.
3. By April 25th, over 1000 cases and 68 deaths had been reported across Mexico, with the CDC also reporting 20 cases across the US, as the pandemic emerged.
Powerpoint Ww1 Flu
- An estimated 50 million people died from the influenza virus that swept the world in 1918, killing more than any other illness in recorded history.
- The virus first appeared in spring 1918 with mild symptoms but returned in fall in a more severe form, as scientists and doctors did not understand why it was spreading so quickly.
- Symptoms were atypical and included hemorrhaging in the lungs, with many victims' lungs filling with fluid and causing suffocation within hours.
- Medicine at the time could not cope with the virus, and while home remedies helped symptoms, there was no cure identified as the virus eventually subsided on its own.
Who severe-malaria-tmih-supplement-2014
Severe malaria is caused primarily by Plasmodium falciparum infections and progresses through stages from asymptomatic parasitemia to uncomplicated illness and potentially severe malaria and death. The epidemiology of severe malaria is difficult to determine precisely due to factors like many cases occurring at home without medical attention. An estimated 2 million cases of severe malaria occur globally each year, with around 90% affecting young children in sub-Saharan Africa. The clinical features of severe malaria differ between children and adults, and patterns vary with transmission intensity within Africa. Increased control measures like insecticide-treated bednets and effective drugs have contributed to a decline in estimated malaria mortality in recent years.

Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) is an autoimmune response to infection by Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria that leads to joint pain, heart valve damage, and other symptoms. This heart valve damage caused by ARF is called rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. ARF is usually treated with 2-3 weeks of hospitalization and antibiotics, but the cardiac damage from RHD can persist long-term. Recurrent ARF infections can worsen RHD over time. Preventing recurrent infections through long-term antibiotic prophylaxis is a priority in managing the disease. ARF and RHD disproportionately affect low-income populations and were more common in North
Aids not someone else's problem
AIDS was first recognized in 1982 and is caused by the HIV virus which weakens the immune system. It is transmitted through unprotected sex, blood transfusions, needle sharing, and from mother to child. Symptoms include flu-like symptoms as well as infections, rashes, and memory loss. While money has been spent developing treatments, the virus continues to mutate, making a vaccine difficult. Effective prevention requires increasing access to treatment as well as prevention programs, but developing worldwide programs is expensive. Additionally, unwillingness to openly discuss sexual behaviors and HIV/AIDS has hampered prevention efforts.

Inventions (1)
CD-ROMs were created in 1985 by Sony and Philips. They store large amounts of digital data, including software programs, video games, and multimedia applications. CD-ROM discs have the same physical structure as audio CDs, using a thin aluminum layer and polycarbonate plastic. Disposable cameras were meant for single-use and included installed film, making them convenient to carry for photography. Roller racers were scooter-like toys ridden by moving back and forth while holding handlebars. Pogo balls allowed jumping up and down on a platform attached to a ball in the middle.

CD-ROMs were created in 1985 by Sony and Philips. They store large amounts of digital data, including software programs, video games, and multimedia applications. CD-ROM discs have the same physical structure as audio CDs, using a thin aluminum layer and polycarbonate plastic. Disposable cameras were meant for single-use and included installed film, making them convenient to carry for photography. Roller racers were scooter-like toys ridden by moving back and forth while holding handlebars. Pogo balls allowed jumping up and down on a platform attached to a ball in the middle.

Some of the key events included Mt St Helens erupting in 1980, the assassination attempts on Pope John Paul II and President Reagan in 1981, Sandra Day O'Connor becoming the first female Supreme Court justice in 1981, and the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986. The Berlin Wall fell in 1989 and Exxon Valdez spilled millions of gallons of oil in Alaska.
The end of_the_cold_war
The Cold War between the US and USSR lasted from 1946 to 1991 and was characterized by political and economic competition between the communist and capitalist worlds. During the 1980s, the Soviet Union fought a war in Afghanistan and the US spent $2 trillion on nuclear forces to counter the Soviet submarine force. Submarines were not developed for strategic purposes until the work of John Holland and Simon Lake in the 1880s.
Science
The document discusses the history and development of artificial hearts. It notes that artificial hearts were developed as a solution for patients waiting for donor hearts, with the first implant in a human being in 1982. The first recipient, Dr. Barney Clark, survived 112 days with the Jarvik-7 artificial heart but suffered complications and infections before ultimately passing away. The FDA later approved a few more implants of the Jarvik-7 which provided longer term support as a temporary solution until a donor heart could be transplanted.

history of HIV
This document provides a historical timeline of key events in the HIV/AIDS epidemic from the 1970s-2002 based on information collected by Dr. MZ. It describes the initial cases identified in the late 1970s, the naming and early reports of AIDS in 1981, the identification of HIV as the cause in 1983-1984, and major developments in treatment, awareness, and global response through the 1990s and early 2000s.
After 30 years of AIDS, funding could become an issue in Texas
The Texas legislature cut $19.2 million in funding for AIDS drug assistance programs, which could deny 1,800 new patients access to life-saving medication. This comes 30 years after the start of the AIDS epidemic, when little could be done to treat patients. While drug treatments have allowed many to live long lives, some fear Texas is stepping back from its commitment to care for those with HIV/AIDS. The funding cut may lead to increased drug resistance and visits to public hospitals as patients lose access to treatment.
Investigating the empirical_evidence_for.1
This document summarizes the history and current understanding of the AIDS epidemic. It discusses how AIDS has become one of the most studied diseases and our understanding of its medical and social drivers has deepened over time. However, the impacts are still unfolding over generations and varying significantly between places. While early models predicted severe economic impacts, some hard-hit countries have maintained growth. Understanding the social impacts remains challenging given the epidemic is only 25 years old.
Aids[2][1]
The Reagan administration was slow to respond to the AIDS epidemic because it initially affected homosexual men and drug users. The administration faced pressure from Christian fundamentalist groups who viewed AIDS as divine punishment. These groups had political influence and argued against funding AIDS research and education. As a result, the administration squandered valuable time in the early years of the epidemic. The lack of education led to the spread of fear and misinformation among the public. Many with AIDS were stigmatized and reluctant to seek testing or treatment as a result.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PAPERBACK EDITION
A half-year after the hardcover publication of Dread, sleeves across America were
being rolled up for the swine flu vaccine. New York City set out to inoculate
schoolchildren, and pregnant women lined up to get vaccinated at their
obstetricians’ offices. Although the swine flu outbreak had caused less harm in the
six months since it started than almost any flu event of the past century, everyone
was alarmed. And everyone had questions.
At a symposium in Holland, people asked me whether I thought their
government really needed to buy up enough flu vaccine for every Dutch citizen. A
reporter in Chicago told me he saw boycotts of soccer games involving Mexican
teams, because people thought the flu could be spread by Mexicans. A Canadian
radio host asked whether her country was worrying too much about the flu. An
Australian physician and another in France chided me for my refusal to endorse the
sky-is-falling rhetoric of flu preparedness. Around the U.S., hand-sanitizer
dispensers flowered at supermarket checkouts, airport security points, libraries, and
classrooms; colleagues and friends wondered whether the sanitizing gel could
really stop the flu virus. At home in New York, nurses cried foul at mandatory
immunizations (later rescinded). Physicians expressed frustration at the difficulty
of persuading parents to have t ...
Co relation of csf and neurological findings in hiv positive patients
This document provides a literature review on neurological manifestations in HIV positive patients and the correlation with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) parameters. It summarizes several studies that examined the prevalence and nature of neurological disorders in HIV patients and their relationship to CD4 count and other CSF markers. Many studies found neurological problems to be common and correlated with immunosuppression. Cryptococcal meningitis was a frequent opportunistic infection. Accurately diagnosing neurological conditions is important for treatment, and CSF analysis continues to be useful for this despite modern imaging technologies.
Powerpoint on AIDS
The document discusses the AIDS/HIV epidemic in the United States. It notes that deaths from AIDS peaked in 1994 but then declined rapidly starting in 1996, dropping by 13% in the first half of that year alone. This decline is attributed to better access to treatments and new protease inhibitor drugs that can suppress the virus. The document also discusses groups most at risk for HIV infection and notes prisons have disproportionately high rates of HIV/AIDS.

Mexico Fights Swine Flu With
- Mexico is struggling to contain an outbreak of a new swine flu strain that has killed up to 81 people and infected over 1,300 since mid-April. The virus shows pandemic potential according to WHO.
- Mexican authorities have taken emergency measures including closing schools and cancelling public events in Mexico City. The government has also authorized the president to isolate infected individuals.
- While cases have been confirmed in the U.S. and suspected in New York, it remains unclear if they involve the same virus strain. Early detection of cases and treatment are key to stopping the outbreak but Mexico may have lost valuable time in identifying the new virus. Containing the spread may no longer be possible.
Covid 19 is now a pandemic
After months of deliberation, the World Health Organization has
declared COVID-19 a pandemic. As it seemed clear for quite some time, the virus will likely spread to most (if not all) countries on the globe. However, actions can still limit its impact.
Pesentation on world aids day
World AIDS Day is observed annually on December 1st to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS. It began in 1988 and aims to honor those who have died from an HIV/AIDS-related illness and bring attention to those still living with the disease. Over 33 million people worldwide are currently living with HIV/AIDS, with sub-Saharan Africa disproportionately affected. While treatment with antiretroviral drugs has increased life expectancy, prevention remains a global priority to end the pandemic.
Vaccine death-report
This document reports on evidence of millions of deaths and adverse events resulting from COVID-19 injections. It claims official reports vastly undercount deaths and side effects, with actual numbers being 5-100 times higher based on whistleblower accounts and studies. Stories on social media suggest thousands more deaths and injuries among the vaccinated than being reported officially. The document alleges a massive cover-up and criminal suppression of data on vaccine safety.

This study was carried out on knowledge and prevalence of hiv/aids among suya vendors in kafanchan of jema’a local government area of kaduna state. To achieve this objective, the researcher developed and administered a questionnaire on eighty respondents. The likert scale statistical and graphical method was used in testing the null hypothesis. From the study, It was observed that The society or public authority do not educate Suya Vendors about Hiv/Aids. Economic status and educational background among Suya Vendors do not determine their knowledge of Hiv/Aids. It was also discovered that parents, religious leaders or government responsible for Hiv/Aids among Suya Vendors. It was observed that that All Suya Vendors are not knowledgeable about their Hiv Status. It was also observed that Suya Vendors negligent in knowing their status. that Suya Vendors do not tell their sexual partners about their Hiv Status. That Suya Vendors have multiple sexual partners. Both the state and federal government should take on joint projects to combat AIDS at the border areas. Projects including training, counselling, public meeting and rallies may be undertaken for awareness-building to this effect. The government should set up blood testing centre across that will be easily accessible, so that the people at Kafanchan municipal areas can get free access to HIV/AIDS testing. Educational Programmes about safe sex should be provided to the illiterate mass. Radio, TV programmes, visual aids and multimedia on AIDS should be produced to augment their awareness level.
Geography of Health
There is generally a positive relationship between the wealth of a country and the quality of healthcare available. Wealthier countries, known as MEDCs, typically spend a higher percentage of their total expenditures on healthcare and have greater access to resources. However, some exceptions exist, such as the United States, which has high healthcare spending but many uninsured citizens who lack access. Less wealthy LEDCs often have less access to healthcare, though countries like Cuba provide universal healthcare through socialized medicine despite lower spending per person.
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome In Taiwan
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) hit Taiwan in March 2003, severely impacting the tourism system and economy. The Taiwanese government imposed travel restrictions in response to the SARS outbreak, which led to a huge decrease in international tourist arrivals. All of these events caused global economic downturn in tourism and negatively affected industries like hotels, airlines, and other tourist services, impacting Taiwan's economic status.
The Vaccine Death Report 2.pdf
This document presents information from a report called "The Vaccine Death Report" that claims experimental COVID-19 vaccines have resulted in millions of deaths and serious adverse events worldwide. It summarizes data on reported deaths and injuries from vaccines in the US and other countries, and argues the true numbers are much higher due to underreporting. Several experts are cited warning about the potential dangers of the vaccines.

Discs are made of polycarbonate plastic with an aluminum reflective layer and can hold large software programs, videos, and multimedia files. Other popular 1980s inventions mentioned include disposable cameras meant for single-use photography, roller racers which were scooter-like toys ridden by shifting one's weight, and pogo balls which combined a pogo stick with a bouncing ball platform.
1980 1989 timeline
The document is a timeline of major events from 1980 to 1989. Some of the key events included Pope John Paul II and President Reagan surviving assassination attempts in 1981, Sandra Day O'Connor becoming the first woman on the Supreme Court in 1981, the release of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" album in 1982, Sally Ride becoming the first American woman in space in 1983, the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986, and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
Chernobyl
The Chernobyl accident in 1986 was caused by a flawed reactor design operated by under-trained personnel, resulting in a steam explosion and fire that released 5% of the radioactive core. Two workers died that night and 28 more from acute radiation poisoning in the following weeks. While increased thyroid cancers occurred, a UN report found no evidence of major public health impacts from radiation exposure 20 years later, and resettlement of evacuated areas is ongoing.
Beirut barracks bombing
The Beirut Barracks Bombing in 1983 saw two truck bombs crash into buildings housing American and French military soldiers in Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War, killing a total of 299 American and French servicemen. The bombings, using what was then the largest non-nuclear bomb in history at six tons of TNT, were claimed by Islamic Jihad and resulted in the deaths of 241 American soldiers and 58 French peacekeepers.

The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 to prevent East Germans from fleeing to West Berlin and was stretched over 100 miles. It separated West Berlin which was democratic from East Berlin which was communist, with the west side covered in graffiti while the east side remained plain. Over the years, many Germans risked escaping over or under the wall, with most being young people, until it was opened in 1989 when the border between west and east Germany was officially opened, allowing reunification.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
