  • Advantages of Online Doctor Consultation

    Advantages of Online Doctor Consultation

    [ad_1]

    What will you do when you feel ill or suffer from any medical ailment? Without any second thought you will set an appointment to go all the way to the doctor’s office to sit and wait to get treated. Does it sound time-consuming? It is a well known fact that this is an internet age, where almost all the things are done online. Yes, today you don’t need to go to any clinic to see a doctor because an array of fully qualified licensed doctors is available online with whom you could make online appointments.

    This service considerably plays an excellent role for those who pay too much care for basic medical issues such as athlete’s foot, bronchitis, sinusitis and many other simple illnesses. Using this service not just saves your time and money but also helps you to get acute medical issues treated. An online doctor is polite and friendly and encourages patients to ask questions about various health concerns and get their doubts clarified. Now, patients can stop making repeated visits to the doctor’s office for the treatment of acute simple conditions. The detailed consultation report and explanation helps the patients to understand clearly and work towards improving their health.

    Some of the benefits of online doctor consultation are listed below:

    • Alternatively, online medical consultation service is also known as “telemedicine service”. It serves as a great resource for those who have limited conveniences and who are too sick to leave the house to go to the clinic and visit the doctor. In this busy scheduled world, most of the people would be on the go and would be away from home. Therefore, they may find it difficult to fix an appointment with their desired specialists. Don’t worry! Now, you could schedule an appointment with your choice of specialists from the comfort of your home or any other places any time of the day.

    • All the patients are valuable and receive the same care as they would get from the clinics. The dedicated professionals with ready access to state-of-the art online medical services render high quality care for the needy patients.

    • Additionally, online medical consultations and prescriptions are available wherever you happen to have internet access and a computer or other internet-connecting device.

    Most of the patients suffering from minor medical conditions such as cold, ear infections, insomnia, rashes, flu, etc show negligence in getting a proper treatment and in visiting a doctor (since it is a time-consuming process). Therefore they tend to keep delaying the essential health check. But now, an online doctor consultation service will make it easier for them to get these diseases treated.

  • Always Be in Money Making Mode!

    Always Be in Money Making Mode!

    [ad_1]

    Every day you should be doing something to make money. Making money can become a habit, just like not making money. It is important that you cultivate and develop the money-making mindset.

    If you have an email list send them valuable and information information on a regular basis. If you are creating content to get links back to your website, create it every day. Do something – an article, a press release, a video, a blog post or comment. Do it every day.

    Do something every day to bring in money. Get obsessed and addicted to making money. Put your focus on making money, not TV and other non money making time wasters. Making money absolutely must become your new lifestyle.

    If you truly want to be successful and make your living online it is time to sacrifice your normal time that’s dedicated to other things, and shift that time and focus to creating cash flow.

    Start with where you are right now, start with the knowledge you have right now. Start with the resources and assets you have right now. Don’t wait until you know it all because you never will!

    Your income is going to come from how much product/service you sell. You have to change your focus and how you use your time.

    Full time marketers (or those who want to be full time marketers) focus their time and attention on “making money”… they focus on selling stuff. It’s not rocket science my friends.

    Too many distributors spend their time on making changes to their website, changes that will have little effect on sales. Don’t get caught up in this. Stop worrying about making your store ‘pretty’ and trying to get everything perfect because you never will! I don’t care if you have only one product or 200 products… spend your time promoting what you have!

    Focus on those things that will make you money like driving traffic to your website, building your list and selling to your list.

    At the end of each day always ask yourself “What did I do today to make more money from my store?” Whether small or large always do something daily to make money. That is the reason you have your store, to make money.

    If your store is to satisfy your Ego or impress others kill it right now and find a regular job!

    Do whatever you can to get visitors to sign up on your list. Give your list members valuable and informative free stuff like written articles and reports, videos about your niche and videos on using your products, surveys… anything that bonds them to you. You give people FREE and valuable helpful information and they will reciprocate by giving your orders.

    Your long term GOLDEN GOOSE to making you tons of money online is building a huge email/newsletter list and making them loyal followers and then SELLING to them!

    Like I said, it’s not rocket science people, it’s plain and simple BUSINESS! Now go and let making money dominate your thoughts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year!

    Godspeed… CoachDoug

  • No Evidence That Shekau Received €5m Foreign Fund From An NGO

    No Evidence That Shekau Received €5m Foreign Fund From An NGO

    Boko Haram Terrorists

    Fact-checkers at HumAngle online newspaper have described a news report published on Opera News that Abubakar Shekau’s faction of Boko Haram was in disarray after it received a donation of five mIllion euros from an “unidentified” international non-governmental organisation as false.

    The publication claimed that senior members of the group have also turned against each other over how the fund should be shared within the group.

    The story claimed that a military source said “Shekau is getting blind as such only the very close ones of his aides have access to him. The issue of €5m is causing serious disaffection in their camps.

    “Shekau has been receiving such funding in the past and he was never able to build his terror infrastructure beyond what is currently being dismantled. Our commanders are not concerned that he is still defrauding those sponsoring him, if there is any concern it is that we should be able to capture him before his own fighters kill him,” the military source said as claimed by the news report.

    No Evidence That Shekau Received €5m Foreign Fund From An NGO 1Boko Haram Terrorists


    But according to HumAngle newspaper, the Director of Nigerian Army Public Relations, Sagir Musa, when contacted to verify the claim said he was not aware of either the “verified intelligence reports” or the claim that Shekau received five million euros foreign fund through an NGO in the North-East.

    The newspaper also said it searched autogist.com, the blog that the news was attributed to but could not find the story published on the blog.

    “Fact-checkers at HumAngle contacted the Director of Nigerian Army Public Relations, Sagir Musa, to confirm the veracity of the claim and he said he was not aware of either the “verified intelligence reports” or the claim that Shekau received five million euros foreign fund through an NGO in the North-East.

    “We searched autogist.com, the blog that the news was attributed to but could not find the story published on the blog. Also, no reliable medium reporting terrorism published the story. Other conflict and insurgency reporters were contacted by HumAngle but none was aware of the “verified intelligence report”.

    “As the name of the NGO was not disclosed, it became difficult to trace its operation history. 

    “However, Nigeria’s military had suspended several NGOs from operating in the North-East following allegations of collaborating with the terrorist organisation. But no NGO has ever been charged to court by the authorities and the suspended NGOs were later allowed to resume operations in the region.

    “Scholars and experts on Boko Haram have suggested different methods of terrorism financing, from state sponsorship to external support by other terror groups like ISIS and Alqa’eda. But Shekau’s faction of Boko Haram relies on self-funding streams through fishing, farming, crowdfunding, extortion, taxation, raids and ransom taking to finance its operations,” the newspaper published.

    Quoting a report on Boko Haram sources of funding, it continued, “Much of Boko Haram’s funds are transported through human cash couriers, which are able to move rather easily between the porous borders of Nigeria, Niger, Cameroon and Chad… very little evidence of either Gulf or other foreign funding exists,” a report on Boko Haram sources of funding concluded.

    “Due to the strict surveillance of monetary operations to avoid terrorist financing in Nigeria, financial regulations have forced Boko Haram to avoid remittances of funds online. Such a huge amount is not possible to be transferred without its being intercepted by international and local intelligence platforms.”

    The newspaper further said Nigeria Financial Intelligence Unit follows any suspicious transaction with the aim of curbing terrorism financing.

    “It collates information of all beneficiaries of humanitarian assistance to avert financing of terrorism through covert operations, thus making it impossible for any NGO to follow “previous channels and beneficiaries’ templates” of funding terrorism as claimed by the report.

    “Humanitarian organisations work hand in hand with EFFC Department of Special Control against Money Laundering (SCUML) to checkmate their activities to curb terrorism financing, according to Abdurrashid Ibrahim a worker at the financial unit of an NGO in the North-East.

    “Any transaction from five million naira must pass through a special control unit against money laundering (SCUML) clearance process be it for individual or corporate organisation,” he said.

    Furthermore, there is no evidence that an NGO was allowed to operate after the military discovered that “Shekau has been receiving such funding in the past” as claimed by the news.

    According to HumAngle findings, Abubakar Shekau does not operate or rely on an advisory council (Shura). 

    He is reported to be ruthless and brutal to any opposition within the group, making it unlikely for any Boko Haram commander to disagree with the leader.

  • Commitment and call to action: Global collaboration to accelerate new COVID-19 health technologies

    Commitment and call to action: Global collaboration to accelerate new COVID-19 health technologies

    Our Vision and Mission

    Grounded in a vision of a planet protected from human suffering
    and the devastating social and economic consequences of
    COVID-19, we, an initial group of global health actors (BMGF,
    CEPI, Gavi, Global Fund, UNITAID, Wellcome Trust, WHO) and
    private sector partners and other stakeholders, are launching
    a landmark, global and time-limited collaboration to accelerate the
    development, production and equitable global access to new COVID-19 essential health technologies.

    We know that as long as anyone is at risk from this virus, the entire
    world is at risk – every single person on the planet needs to be
    protected from this disease.

    We agree that alongside evidence-based public health measures,
    innovative COVID-19 diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines are
    needed – in record time and at record scale and access – to save
    millions of lives and countless trillions of dollars, and to return
    the world to a sense of ‘normalcy’.

    We recognize the significant amount of critical work, investment
    and initiatives already ongoing around the world to expedite
    the development and deployment of innovative COVID-19 related
    products and interventions.

    We appreciate that while development and deployment of
    innovative products is essential, it will not be enough. We must
    simultaneously and urgently accelerate the strengthening of
    sustainable health systems and capacities to enable delivery of
    the new COVID-19 tools to those who need them and to mitigate
    the knock-on impact on other diseases.

    We remember lessons from the past, which have shown that even
    when effective tools are available to the world, too often some
    are protected, while others are not. This inequity is unacceptable –
    all tools to address COVID-19 must be available to all. In the fight
    against COVID-19, no one should be left behind.

    We understand we cannot do this alone, and that we need to
    work together in unprecedented and inclusive partnership with all
    stakeholders – political leaders, public and private sector partners,
    civil society, academia, and all other stakeholders across society
    – jointly leveraging our comparative strengths and respective
    voices to drive towards collective solutions, an accelerated path,
    and access for all. We are stronger, faster and more effective
    working together.

    Our Mission is not only accelerated development and availability
    of new COVID-19 tools – it is to accelerate equitable global access
    to safe, quality, effective, and affordable COVID-19 diagnostics,
    therapeutics and vaccines, and thus to ensure that in the fight
    against COVID-19, no one is left behind.

    Our Commitment

    1. We commit to the shared aim of equitable global
      access to innovative tools for COVID-19 for all.
    2. We commit to an unprecedented level of partnership
      – proactively engaging stakeholders, aligning and
      coordinating efforts, building on existing collaborations, collectively devising solutions, and grounding
      our partnership in transparency, and science.
    3. We commit to create a strong unified voice to
      maximize impact, recognizing this is not about
      singular decision-making authority, but rather
      collective problem-solving, interconnectedness and
      inclusivity, where all stakeholders can connect and
      benefit from the expertise, knowledge and activities
      of this shared action-oriented platform.
    4. We commit to build on past experiences towards
      achieving this objective, including ensuring that
      every activity we undertake is executed through the
      lens of equitable global access, and that the voices
      of the communities most affected are heard.
    5. We commit to be accountable to the world, to
      communities, and to one another. We are coming
      together in the spirit of solidarity, and in the service
      of humanity, to achieve our mission and vision.

    Our Call

    We ask the global community and political leaders to
    support this landmark collaboration, and for donors to
    provide the necessary resources to accelerate achievement
    of the objectives of this global collaboration, capitalizing
    on the opportunity provided by the rolling pledging
    campaign that will start on 4 May 2020.

  • What matters to women in the postnatal period?

    What matters to women in the postnatal period?

    The right to a positive maternity healthcare experience at every stage 

    Each pregnancy is unique and clinical needs can change across the pregnancy, childbirth and postnatal periods. One thing that never changes is the right to a positive experience at every stage. 

    Achieving the best possible physical, emotional, and psychological outcomes for every individual and newborn requires health systems to take a human rights-based approach: not only preventing maternal death and morbidity, but prioritising person-centred
    care and well-being.

    WHO is developing new guidelines for a positive experience of postnatal care, due to be published next year. To inform these guidelines and ensure that postnatal services can better meet the needs of women and their babies, WHO undertook a qualitative
    systematic review on what matters to women in the postnatal period.

    Joys and challenges in the postnatal period

    There is limited research about values and preferences in the postnatal period, defined by WHO as the first six weeks after childbirth. Studies have often focused on the results of specific postnatal interventions, rather than on the individuals who use
    them. 

    ‘What matters to women in the postnatal period: A meta-synthesis of qualitative studies,’ published in PLOS ONE, gives long-overdue respect to the authority of women’s own experiences. The authors review first-hand data from 15 countries
    and 36 studies published after the year 2000 relating to women’s beliefs, expectations and values at this significant time of life.  

    These studies affirm that a positive postnatal experience can result in joy, self-confidence and enhanced capacity to thrive as both a person and a parent.

    They are also vocal about the potential challenges of adjusting to a ‘new normal’ following childbirth, including changes in self-identity, relationships, and sexual behaviour.

    What is a positive postnatal experience? 

    A positive postnatal experience for a woman will be one that responds to her specific context and preferences. 

    It will provide the confidence, knowledge and skills women need in the weeks following childbirth, supporting them to adjust to any changes in their intimate relationships and build new family ones. Women will be better equipped to navigate physical and
    emotional challenges and to experience the dynamic achievement of personal growth. 

    This should be a shared responsibility, not a solitary one. Community has a critical role in enabling a positive postnatal experience, including partners, family and elders.

    It is crucial that healthcare providers meet each woman’s needs, as well as those of their babies. 

    Supporting choices and rights to improve postnatal health outcomes

    There are an estimated 303 000 maternal deaths annually, according to recent WHO figures. Most of these deaths occur postnatally. 

    The postnatal period is therefore a vital opportunity to improve both maternal and neonatal health and wellbeing: supporting healthy behaviors, providing life-skills education, facilitating breastfeeding, counselling women about family planning options,
    supporting good mental health, preventing and treating childbirth-related complications. 

    Health care systems that empower individuals by supporting their values, preferences and rights are fundamental to improving maternal and newborn health outcomes. 

    WHO’s guidance for positive maternity care

    WHO has recently released recommendations on antenatal care for a positive pregnancy experience, and on intrapartum care for a positive childbirth experience.

    These publications made important clinical updates, including an increase from four to eight recommended antenatal contacts, and a revision to the decision-making process for interventions to accelerate labour. 

    They also uphold every woman’s right to a positive maternity care experience: one where her pregnancy does not erase her competency, autonomy and right to participate in decision-making for her own care and the care of her newborn. 

    Women’s choices and rights to sexual and reproductive health care, including maternity care, should be respected at every stage of the continuum of maternal and newborn care. This is true across all income settings, as well as in humanitarian settings
    and during public health emergencies.

    When WHO’s postnatal guidelines are released next year, they will complete the maternity care series built around what matters to women.

    Rather than dividing care into three periods of antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal, these publications can be used to establish a model in which health systems support women, their baby and wider network physically, psychologically, socially and emotionally
    through this significant life event.

  • WhatsApp tightens sharing limits to curb virus misinformation

    WhatsApp tightens sharing limits to curb virus misinformation

    WhatsApp tightens sharing limits to curb virus misinformation 2

    SAN FRANCISCO: WhatsApp on Tuesday placed new limits on message forwarding as part of an effort to curb the spread of misinformation about the coronavirus pandemic.

    The new policy limits users to forwarding certain messages to one “chat” at a time, aiming to limit the rapid propagation of content that is provocative but likely to be false.

    The Facebook-owned messaging platform said it took the action to enable people to concentrate on personal and private communications during the health crisis.

    In recent weeks, “we’ve seen a significant increase in the amount of forwarding which users have told us can feel overwhelming and can contribute to the spread of misinformation,“ WhatsApp said in a blog post.

    “We believe it’s important to slow the spread of these messages down to keep WhatsApp a place for personal conversation.”

    Last year, WhatsApp set limits on forwarded messages to five chats at a time, “to constrain virality,“ responding to events in India where the rapid proliferation of unverified information led to mob violence.

    The new policy applies to messages forwarded “many times” and marked with a double-arrow, indicating that it did not originate from a close contact, according to WhatsApp.

    “In effect, these messages are less personal compared to typical messages sent on WhatsApp,“ the blog said.

    “We are now introducing a limit so that these messages can only be forwarded to one chat at a time.”

    Damian Collins, a British member of parliament and co-founder of the Infotagion fact-check blog, called the move “a timely intervention,“ noting that WhatsApp was being used to spread recent hoaxes that 5G wireless networks were spreading the virus.

    “The online conspiracy theories about #5G exposed last week, and their real-life consequences, are a clear call to fight disinformation about #COVID19,“ Collins tweeted.

    “A lot of the false content sent to us at @infotagion came from @WhatsApp.”

    Scrambling to stop hoaxes

    WhatsApp along with its parent Facebook have been scrambling to curb an explosion of rumors and hoaxes about the coronavirus and at the same time seeking to promote verified content.

    With more than a billion users worldwide, WhatsApp has become a key source of information and communication during the pandemic.

    Facebook said last month it has nearly doubled server capacity to power WhatsApp as people in isolation place more voice and video calls using the popular messaging service.

    But WhatsApp has also been used to spread inaccurate information about the Covid-19 outbreak including about untested treatments.

    Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar last month warned people against sharing unverified coronavirus information on the messaging platform.

    “These messages are scaring and confusing people and causing real damage. Please get your info from official, trusted sources,“ the leader tweeted.

    One problem faced by the messaging service is that the encrypted information is seen only by the sender and recipient, making it harder for fact-checkers to debunk.

    WhatsApp said that as part of its efforts to fight the spread of false information, it was working with the World Health Organization and some 20 national health ministries, “to help connect people with accurate information.”

    The platform has been funding fact checking organizations and created a Coronavirus Information Hub within the app. – AFP

  • WHO public consultation on draft Target Product Profiles for Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment

    Tuberculosis (TB) is a major yet preventable global health problem, with an estimated 10 million new cases worldwide in 2018, resulting in more than 1.5 million deaths, making it the leading infectious disease cause of death worldwide. An estimated one fourth of the world’s population is infected with the TB bacterium, of whom 5–10% advance to active TB disease in their lifetime.

    Prevention of TB is a crucial component of the World Health Organization (WHO) End TB Strategy that calls for 90% coverage of TB preventive treatment (TPT) among persons living with HIV (PLHIV) and household contacts of infectious TB cases by 2035. The UN high-level meeting on TB, in September 2018, further emphasized the need to strengthen implementation of TPT and called for 30 million people, including 4 million children under 5 years of age to receive TPT by 2022.

    However, uptake and scale-up of TPT have been slow, mainly due to the limitations of both diagnostic assays and available regimens (long duration, cost, toxicity, adherence issues, and operational aspects), indicating the need for new short, safe, efficacious and easy-to-take regimens for the treatment of TB infection and prevention of TB disease. The WHO has developed draft Target Product Profiles (TPPs) for TPT to align developers’ performance and operational targets for new TPT regimens with the needs of end-users.

    The draft TPPs are now available online for comment.

    WHO invites comments or feedback from all stakeholders by 27 April 2020 via this link:

    Based on the comments received on this draft, WHO will prepare the final non-draft TPP (version 1.0), which will be posted on WHO’s website and uploaded into the (WHO) Product Profile Directory by October 2020.
