Synopsis According to the latest government tally, India has reported 1, 071 cases and 29 deaths due to the Sars-Cov-2 virus, which causes the deadly infection. Covid-19: India is still in local transmission stage, says Health Ministry Addressing the press, Lav Agarwal, joint secretary health ministry clearly traced the rise in Covid-19 cases by drawing a clear analogy with other countries. It took 12 days for cases to rise from 100 to 1000 in India, whereas European nations have seen manifold increase, said Agarwal.

Researchers and healthcare professionals can access ATLAS's data—free of charge—to study resistance trends, even in emerging market countries like Africa, Asia, and Latin America. "At Pfizer, we take this growing threat very seriously, " Inverso added, "and are driven by our desire to protect global public health and address the medical needs of people suffering from infectious diseases. " Pfizer also encourages good stewardship practices and supports education and training programs to help ensure patients receive the correct antibiotic only if needed, at the right dose and for the right duration. "We believe that everybody can play a part in AMR stewardship by not taking an antibiotic unless provided by a healthcare professional, sticking to antibiotic regimens when prescribed, and keeping their vaccinations up to date, " said Inverso. She added, "Vaccines are administered to help prevent infections from happening in the first place, thereby reducing the need for antibiotic usage that can lead to the development of resistance. "
To become seriously ill is to experience the deconstruction of self, body and world. My trustworthy and reliable body became a threat just before the new year in 2015, when a seizure unexpectedly crumpled my six-foot frame to the floor in our modest second-floor condo. Though seizures persisted, a familiar medical axiom clouded the evidence that was in front of us: When hearing hooves, infer horses, not zebras. It turns out, I was a zebra. After several months and a series of specialist office visits, by spring of 2016, I experienced regular focal seizures, sometimes three or more daily, each presenting with dizziness, left-sided paralysis and mild confusion. My ability to "ride them out" coupled with a clinician's misjudgment when assuring me that, "If there were something seriously wrong with you, you'd be in much worse shape, " kicked the diagnostic can down the road. Nearly 15 months after the initial onset, the duration, frequency and intensity of these episodes became a risk to my health, and engaging in normal behaviors like driving to work risked the health of others.
But when wielded inappropriately, "it ends up being rather undemocratic, whether at home or at work. " Absolute adherence to amae can bolster hierarchical relationships and power imbalances. Behrens sees shades of amae in the abuses that catalysed the #MeToo movement and says that extreme demands under the guise of amae can be severely underreported in Japanese companies. Amae may be a way for adults to escape from the stress of their responsibilities but may also have its roots in the way they were treated as children (Credit: Getty Images) Egregious attempts at amae in adulthood may partly trace their roots to childhood rejection. Doi predicted children whose amae is not reciprocated would experience neediness and anxiety. Modern attachment theory and behavioural studies bear this out. "When you attend to a child every time [they cry], they will become secure, autonomous and more independent, " says Behrens. These children develop the confidence to explore the world, because they know they will be rescued if necessary.
