Unlike foot and mouth disease, the avian flu, e-coli or listeria, the COVID-19 pandemic has not spread directly through livestock or agriculture commodities, and has therefore not directly disrupted on-farm production. However, the crisis is undermining the ability of farms and agri-enterprises to e...nsure consistent supplies of food to markets due to enforced closures, labour shortages resulting from illness, and slowdowns in operations caused by physical distancing and lockdowns.

L͛analyse des tendances récentes montre que le Burkina Faso a enregistré une réduction significative de la mortalité infanto-juvénile. Même si aucune des cibles des OMD 4 et 5 n͛a été atteinte par le pays, le taux de mortalité infanto-juvénile est passé de 129 ...pour mille naissances vivantes en 2010 à 82 pour mille naissances
vivantes en 2015, soit une baisse de 7.3% par an. Ceci est en grande partie dû aux progrès enregistrés en matière de lutte contre la mortalité au bénéfice de la tranche juvénile (de 1 à 4 ans). Cependant, comme près de la moitié des enfants âgés de moins de cinq ans continuent de mourir au cours de leur première
année de vie, il reste beaucoup à faire pour l͛atteinte de la vision globale d͛élimination de la mortalité infanto-juvénile évitable et de réduction de la mortalité des mères comme partie prenante des Objectifs de Développement Durable (ODD).

Excecutive Summary.
The failure to protect the people most vulnerable to climate change is especially alarming given the steady increase in the number of climate and weather-related disasters. According to the World Disasters Report, the average number of climate and weather-related disasters per d...ecade has increased nearly 35 per cent since the 1990s.
Over the past decade, 83 per cent of all disasters were caused by extreme weather and climate-related events such as floods, storms, and heatwaves. Together, these disasters killed more than 410,000 people and affected a staggering 1.7 billion people.

The Western Pacific Region is the largest and most diverse region in the world, made up of 37 countries and territories in the Pacific, Oceania and parts of Asia, with a population of more than 1.9 billion people stretching over an area from China and Mongolia in the north to New Zealand in the sout...h. In 1999, 22 countries and territories in the Pacific joined together and launched the Pacific Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis. Shortly after, the Global Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis was launched in 2000. In 2004, 12 countries in the Asia subregion of the Western Pacific Region and Southeast Asian Region joined and developed the Mekong-Plus Strategic Plan for Elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis. Since then, significant efforts have been made by all endemic countries, with annual mass drug administration (MDA) as a principal strategy, through strong partnership with the WHO and other donors and partners. As a result, by the end of 2019, 10 of 22 endemic countries in the region, including 8 of 16 countries in the Pacific and 2 countries in the Asia subregion, achieved WHO validation for elimination of lymphatic filariasis (LF) as a public health problem. All the other countries are either progressing with post-MDA surveillance or accelerating efforts by adoption of the new triple drug therapy strategy and enhancement of MDA campaigns to tackle persistent transmission. Some 85% of the originally endemic implementation units have stopped MDA and the number of people requiring MDA for LF in the Western Pacific Region was reduced by 72% from 2000 to 2018. This paper reviews the progress, key success factors and remaining challenges and indicates the way forward to achieve LF elimination in the Western Pacific Region.

RECOMENDACIONES PSICOLÓGICAS PARA EXPLICAR A NIÑOS Y NIÑAS EL BROTE DE CORONAVIRUS-COVID 19
El Colegio Oficial de la Psicología de Madrid, a través de la Sección de Psicología Clínica, de la Salud y Psicoterapia, quiere transmitir una serie de pautas dirigidas a padres, profesionales y fami...liares de niños y niñas, orientadas a promover un afrontamiento adecuado frente al brote de Coronavirus-Covid 19.
Estas recomendaciones están adaptadas para niños y niñas de 4 a 10 años, ya que en edades más tempranas la idea es más abstracta y requiere de una adaptación más sencilla. A partir de los 10 años comprenden conceptos más complejos, sin necesidad de realizar adaptaciones tan concretas como en esta etapa evolutiva.
Teniendo en cuenta la incertidumbre en cuanto a la evolución del brote en España, y que día a día nos enfrentamos a una nueva situación, conviene adaptar también la información que traslademos. Por ello debemos darle la importancia que merece a la prevención de la transmisión del virus y las medidas de higiene, reduciendo también situaciones de alarma que afecten a los menores.https://www.copmadrid.org/web/comunicacion/comunicado/222/recomendaciones-psicologicas-para-explicar-a-ninos-y-ninas-el-brote-de-coronavirus-covid-19
