Human trafficking is a crime that forcefully exploits women, men, and children. According to the United Nations, human trafficking affects every country in the world, but it’s not talked about enough. So we’re talking about it. It’s estimated that internationally there are between 20 million and 40 million people in modern slavery today. Assessing the full scope of human trafficking is difficult because so cases so often go undetected, something the United Nations refers to as “the hidden figure of crime.” Reports suggest that, internationally, only about .04% survivors of human trafficking cases are identified, meaning that the vast majority of cases of human trafficking go undetected.

However, human trafficking does not exist solely because many people are vulnerable to exploitation. Instead, human trafficking is fueled by a demand for cheap labor, services, and for commercial sex. Human traffickers are those who employ force, fraud, or coercion to victimize others in their desire to profit from the existing demand. To ultimately solve the problem of human trafficking, it is essential to address these demand-driven factors, as well as to alter the overall market incentives of high-profit and low-risk that traffickers currently exploit.

Every day traveling brings a new set of issues and opportunities. The way you handle those also gives you insight into who you are. You’ll come home knowing yourself better, and with a fresh perspective on what you want out of life. The experience will change your life.

In my opinion I love to travel because is the best way to learn about another cultures and how amazing the world is

I love adventures and is my way to live and travel around the world makes me the most happy person

It’s common knowledge that traveling teaches you something new. First and foremost, you are studying geography during your trip, and then you can easily identify the capitals of the world. In such a way, you develop your intelligence. Secondly, you have an opportunity to learn new culture and traditions of different nations. Imagine that people have another idea about life, they have strange or horrific traditions and a completely different religion. All these factors inspire your curiosity, and you want to start traveling.

Also, you will learn to be independent. You are invariant with somebody else, and that is why you can go only with your gut. Therefore, traveling is self-knowledge and the disclosure of your abilities and capabilities.

But first of all, traveling is the memories that will warm your soul. We are the creators of moments in our life, both pleasant and painful. You can share impressions with your friends and family, or you can write a separate article. Bear in mind that you live here and now, so enjoy yourself and travel!

The fitness industry has grown to great proportions over the last few years. The International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association has reported that the $30 billion health and fitness industry in America alone has been increasing at least three to four percent annually for the last ten years. What’s more is that experts claim that the market shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon with the help of content marketing and other digital marketing strategies.

At the same time, the demand for fitness clubs and gyms has increased. This is partly because of the increasing health consciousness among the general public. Experts believe this is due to expensive health insurance costs. As a result, consumers are hoping to trim down their expenses on health insurance.

With this in mind, the number of fitness clubs have increased over the years. Each provider offering cheaper gym membership and new services such as streaming exercise classes. Undoubtedly, a growing demand would always equate to tighter competition.

New brands hoping to secure a spot among key players and stay relevant in the constantly changing market of fitness clubs, they need to have a long term strategy in brand awareness

Dubai’s drive for greener vehicles

The Dubai government has introduced a raft of incentives in partnership with the public and private sectors to encourage the development of greener transport alternatives such as hydrogen, electric and hybrid technology, as it sets new targets designed to ensure the city has the lowest carbon footprint in the world by 2050.

 

As part of this lofty target, Dubai has announced that 10% of all new vehicles in the city will be hybrid or electric by 2020, with the aim of getting to a point where 2 per cent of all cars in Dubai by the same year will be either electric or hybrid vehicles. The long-term target is for that number to reach 10 per cent by 2030.

Steps have already been taken to reduce the city’s carbon emissions by enshrining it in the government’s ‘Energy Strategy 2050’ initiative, and a massive US$27 billion (AED100 billion) green fund has been set aside to help Dubai achieve its green targets.

New projects underway

A plethora of new public and private projects are being backed to help usher in this new era of sustainability and fuel-efficient vehicles. One recent initiative has been the rollout of 50 electric-powered Tesla taxis and a further 75 Tesla taxis are earmarked for 2019.

Currently, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) operates 300 hybrid taxi cars, which is 6 per cent of the total taxi fleet. “We are working to convert 50 per cent of the taxi fleet to hybrid cars by 2021. These vehicles produce 33 per cent less carbon emissions compared to other cars,” said HE Mattar Al Tayer, director-general and chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the RTA.

The Dubai Supreme Council of Energy (DSCE), in association with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) and the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), has set new targets which aim to see carbon emissions reduced by 16 per cent by 2021, insisting that all government organisations must include hybrid and electric vehicles in their fleets.

New projects underway

Al Tayer noted that the RTA has adopted a project to study the requirements for electric-vehicle charging stations and their locations in Dubai.

The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has pledged this year to increase the number of charging stations for electric cars to 200 as part of the government’s ‘Green Charger Initiative’ in a bid to encourage people to switch from petrol to electric vehicles. Charging stations have been deployed at key locations such as Dubai Airports, Dubai Municipality, RTA, shopping malls, petrol stations, hotels and parking areas.

Yousif Lootah, CEO of Dubai conglomerate SS Lootah Group, is another man on a mission to persuade Dubai’s motorists to switch to more eco-friendly electric cars.

 

His company has launched a ‘Green Car Programme’ to convert all of its company vehicles to electric or hybrid models. He also wants to raise awareness in the wider public and convince sceptical drivers to go electric.

Alongside the successful implementation of electric-powered taxis, there is currently a trial run of hydrogen-powered taxis in Dubai led by the RTA. The Toyota Mirai is the vehicle being used, which has zero emissions and is noiseless. It can travel 500km before needing a recharge, which typically takes five minutes.

Cars such as the Mirai align with the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Plan 2021 to make Dubai a smart and sustainable city.

Avifavir, first COVID-19 drug from Russia: What you need to know

Dubai: Scientists around the world had been hard at work to find antivirals specific to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Several drugs — such as chloroquine, arbidol and remdesivir and various other drug combinations — have undergone clinical studies to test their efficacy and safety in combating the coronavirus.

Trials had been done around the world — including China, Japan, South Korea, Europe, the US and India.

Now, Russia has licensed the antiviral drug Avifavir against coronavirus. Russian health authorities have given a green light to a clinical trials.

Q: What was it meant for?

Avifavir is an anti-influenza medication in Japan approved in 2014.

It has been repurposed to fight COVID-19. Preliminary trials are said to have shown that Avifavir could shorten recovery times for patients with the coronavirus.

On May 30, 2020 (Saturday) Russia’s Ministry of Health approved Avifavir for emergency use to treat COVID-19, after “encouraging” results from clinical trials of the generic version (Favipiravir) in several countries, including China and Japan. It is Russia’s first COVID-19 drug.

Q: What is it based on?

Avifavir is based on Favipiravir (generic name), and originally sold in Japan under the brand name Avigan. It was developed by Japan’s Fujifilm Pharmaceuticals as an antiviral medication to treat influenza.

Favipiravir is a pyrazinecarboxamide derivative, and is also being studied to treat a number of other viral infections.

Q: How does it work?

Favipiravir works by blocking the ability of a virus to replicate inside a cell. Some doctors began trying Favipiravir to treat coronavirus patients early on, reasoning that its anti-viral properties would be applicable.

Although percutaneous cholecystostomy historically is an alternative to cholecystectomy, it is typically performed as a bridge to gallbladder removal. As a low mortality procedure, it proves itself a valuable tool in morbid patients such as the elderly and the critically ill who present with acute cholecystitis and as an alternate route for biliary access. In high-risk patients, PC can be performed at the patient’s bedside in patients who are too unstable to be transported outside the ICU. PC is performed using ultrasound, CT, or fluoroscopic guidance; however, bedside PC can only be performed using ultrasound. Ultrasound is readily available and portable and allows for real-time imaging.

A 2010 study performed by Donkol et al. demonstrated success rates for CT (93%), US (46%), and fluoroscopy (62%). Though US had the lowest success rate, it remains the only option for those critically ill who cannot tolerate transportation or an immediate cholecystectomy. Contraindications of PC include hemorrhage, pericholecystic abscess, gallbladder tumor, etc. Complications include bile leak, hemorrhage, sepsis, bowel perforation, etc. The gallbladder is a small organ with much pathology. Having the knowledge and skill to adequately perform this procedure is essential, especially in patients with septic shock in need of source control.
