The Impact of Conflict on Polio Eradication: Gaza and Global Challenges

As Tuesday is the week day dedicated to Health and Beauty issues to FAMILY+ Blog, we will continue with another health article. This time we will talk about a very dangerous disease that unfortunately is coming back in zones of conflict. I’m talking about Poliomyelitis, commonly known as polio. This is a highly infectious viral disease that primarily affects children under the age of five. The…

In the realm of public health, few interventions have had as profound an impact as immunizations. Vaccines stand as a stalwart defense against a myriad of infectious diseases, safeguarding individuals and communities alike.

Indigenous Hawaiians really had a good system going: wake up reaaally early and do most of the days work while it's cool and by the time the sun was up and it got hot the work was done and you're free to surf and socialize. I wish the white people realized they themselves could work smarter and not harder and get time to relax. Instead of calling Hawaiians lazy (and being genocidal about it)

People who go "why don't you eradicate gender" annoy me so much, because gender is what I am on the inside, if both genders were treated the same, I would still be transgender because I'd still feel like a man internally and it's so hard to get other people to realize that eradicating gender is literally an impossible task, that's like asking people to eradicate sexuality so you wont have homophobia anymore, like no, people have an innate sense of their own gender/sexuality that cannot be eradicated because thats just part of being human. I genuinely feel like what these people mean is to eradicate gender roles rather than gender but still...

Sorry for the long ask, I'm just frustrated with people not understanding

It's also like... unreasonable to ask trans people specifically. We've been around for millenia - as long as there are human beings born and alive, there we will be. If gender weren't a thing, people would transition. People would still be trans. We can't be eradicated through "well let's just make gender not a thing!!!!" and it feels like some people only want gender eradicated because they think that will eradicate trans people.

Like I've said before, trans and cis people both would benefit from gender roles being less constricting and less of a priority in society. What we need is to accept others - especially those of whom "buck the binary," so to speak.

I understand the nuance that goes into these conversations; however, it's like... nobody seems interested in having it in good faith, or talking about this in a way that isn't, "you trans people are so fucking regressive about gender, unlike cis people, who are historically more normal about it."

Read a short story where the guy time traveled and then died of smallpox. And not to victimblame, but why would you time travel to 1500s America- famously experiencing a devastating smallpox outbreak- without getting vaccinated?

Vaccines are easy, just get them.

whats a tdap vaccination? like the real life one or is that referring to a minecraft mod we're recommended to use? sorry if this is a silly question i could only find the real life vaccination when i looked it up and am not sure if thats what you meant

Oh the real life one, I just thought it'd be funny and also wanted to remind people to get up to date on their TDaP. Gotta remember to renew it every 10 years!

You should also get one if you're pregnant, even if you have already had it. If you time it correctly during the third trimester, then some of the immunity for whooping cough passes on and that's super important.

Anyways vaccination is how Diphtheria has been effectively wiped out in the US, despite previously being a leading cause of death. We went from a suspected million+ cases per year worldwide to ~10k worldwide. It's genuinely incredibly, and increasing vaccine access + acceptance is the best way to wipe it out for good. Which is fucking amazing given how awful Diptheria is (do NOT look up cases of it unless you have a strong stomach).
