World AIDS Day 2022: Support People Affected By HIVTHINK WITH NICHE
HIV remains a major public health issue affecting millions of people worldwide. Progress toward HIV goals has stalled over the past few years, resources have dwindled, and millions of lives are at risk as a result. Division, inequality, and disregard for human rights are among the failures that allowed HIV to become and remain a global health crisis. We also want to let you know on World AIDS Day 2022 that we celebrate both World AIDS Vaccine Day and HIV Vaccine Awareness Day on May 18. The significance of the AIDS vaccine on May 18 is so negligible today.

World Tuberculosis (TB) Day is observed annually on March 24th to raise public awareness about the devastating health, social, and economic consequences of TB. The day is an opportunity to mobilize political and social commitment for accelerating efforts to end TB.
TB is a bacterial infection that mainly affects the lungs but can also affect other parts of the body. It spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. TB is a major public health issue worldwide, with around 10 million people falling ill with TB every year and 1.4 million deaths attributed to the disease in 2019.
On World TB Day, health organizations and governments around the world organize events, campaigns, and activities to raise awareness about TB, highlight the progress made in the fight against the disease, and call for increased funding and political commitment to end TB. The theme for World TB Day 2023 is "Accelerating the end of the TB epidemic: Build back stronger, smarter, and fairer with everyone, everywhere."
It is essential to raise awareness about TB and ensure that individuals have access to high-quality diagnosis, treatment, and care. By working together and investing in research, prevention, and treatment, we can end the TB epidemic and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to live a healthy life.
he WHO Global Tuberculosis Report 2022 provides a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the TB epidemic and of progress in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the disease, at global, regional and country levels.
• Target Audience
[A] People of India, who keep themselves updated on current affairs.
[B] Government of India, who makes, implements and evaluates policies.
• Message to convey
Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient infectious disease that is second largest killer across the globe after HIV/AIDS.
India carries maximum burden of the disease.
Daily, 1000 Indians die due to TB.
Though Indian government is running program called DOTS, patient adherence to therapy is a great concern which results in drug resistance.
What steps to be taken by society, community, government and international community – are suggested in my presentation.
One global health issue that impacts the international health commun.docxmccormicknadine86
One global health issue that impacts the international health community is HIV. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV attacks the CD4 cells (T cells) which are cells that help the body to fight off infections. Overtime, the HIV can destroy many of the T cells that the body will not be able to fight off infection leaving it more propense to opportunistic infections. The opportunistic infection leaves the body very weak and signal that the person has AIDS which is the last stage of HIV. There is no cure for HIV, but with adequate medical care, the virus can be controlled. The antiretroviral therapy is the medicine to treat HIV and it can make the viral load undetectable so the person with HIV can live longer. Commonly, people get or transmit HIV through sex and needle or syringe use. The person infected with HIV can transmit it to other person through body fluids such as blood, semen, pre-seminal fluid, rectal fluids, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. HIV can be prevented through abstinence, limiting number of sexual partners , avoiding sharing needles and using condoms. HIV and AIDS are still a problem for United States and other countries around the world. In 2018, “37,832” people were diagnosed with HIV in USA and gay, bisexual and men who have sex with other men accounted for 69% of all new HIV diagnosis. At end of 2016, an estimated “1.1 million” people in USA had HIV with the blacks/African American being the most affected population. In 2018, African Americans accounted for “42%” or all new HIV diagnosis and most cases of HIV occur in metropolitan areas with “500,00” or more people. HIV diagnosis can also vary by age. Young gay and bisexual men ages 13 to 24 accounted for “83%” of all new cases in 2018. Worldwide, there were about “1.7 million” of new cases of HIV in 2018. An estimated “770,000” people died from AIDS related illness in 2018 (CDC, 2019).
Global health plays a role in global security and the security of USA population. The Institute of Medicine 2003, emphasized that USA should improve the capacity to respond to infectious disease threats and to promote an infectious disease surveillance system. The rapid identification and control of the infectious disease can promote health, prevent the spread of the disease and protect the USA population. Many U.S government agencies such as Millennium Development goals provide funding and human resources to global health. In addition, the International health Regulation was implemented with the purpose of preventing international spread of diseases by encouraging countries to work together to share information about known disease (Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, 2020). The U.S. Department of Health and Human services in collaboration with CDC launched an initiative to reduce new HIV infections in the U.S by 90% by 2030. To reduce HIV infection involves prevention, diagnosis, treatment and outbreak response. The intervention is the use of PrEP (a .

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!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

3. INTRODUCTION
World Tuberculosis Day, observed on 24 March each year, is
designed to build public awareness about the global epidemic
of tuberculosis and efforts to eliminate the disease.
In 1982, on the one-hundredth anniversary of Robert Koch's
presentation, the International Union Against Tuberculosis
and Lung Disease (IUATLD) proposed that March 24 be
proclaimed an official World TB Day.
In 1995 WHO's World Health Assembly and the United
Nations officially recognized TB Day.
World TB Day is one of eight official global public
health campaigns marked by the World Health Organization.

5. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Over one-third of people with TB do not access
quality care.
Over 50% of children with TB miss out on access
to life-saving services.
Only one in four people with drug-resistant TB
access treatment.
Nearly 50% of people who fall ill with HIV-
associated TB do not reach care.
Stigmatizing people with TB inhibits care and is
socially devastating.
8/2/2019 WORLD TB DAY 2019 5
6. TB BURDEN WORLDWIDE
TB is one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide. It is also the leading
killer of people with HIV and a major cause of deaths related to
antimicrobial resistance.
Estimated 10 million new (incident) TB cases worldwide, of which 5.8
million were men, 3.2 million were women and 1 million were children.
People living with HIV accounted for 9% of the total.
Eight countries accounted for 66% of the new cases: India, China,
Indonesia, the Philippines, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and South
Africa.
1.6 million people died from TB, including 0.3 million among people with
HIV.
558 000 people developed TB that was resistant to rifampicin (RR-TB),
the most effective first-line drug, and of these, 82% had multidrug-
resistant TB (MDR-TB).
8/2/2019 WORLD TB DAY 2019 6
7. INDIA TB BURDEN
TB continues to be India’s severest health crisis.
Mortality due to TB is the third leading cause of
years of life lost (YLLs).
TB kills an estimated 480,000 Indians every year
and more than 1,400 every day.
India also has more than a million ‘missing’ cases
every year.
Approximately 5% of the incident TB cases have
co-morbidity with HIV.
