Corona Virus
Coronavirus disease is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Most people who fall sick with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without special treatment. However, some will become seriously ill and require medical attention. The virus can spread from an infected person’s mouth or nose in small liquid particles when they cough, sneeze, speak, sing or breathe. These particles range from larger respiratory droplets to smaller aerosols. You can be infected by breathing in the virus if you are near someone who has COVID-19, or by touching a contaminated surface and then your eyes, nose, or mouth. The virus spreads more easily indoors and in crowded settings.
H.I.V
HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system. If HIV is not treated, it can lead to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).
There is currently no effective cure. Once people get HIV, they have it for life.
But with proper medical care, HIV can be controlled. People with HIV who get effective HIV treatment can live long, healthy lives and protect their partners.
Malaria
Malaria is a serious and sometimes fatal disease caused by a parasite that commonly infects a certain type of mosquito which feeds on humans. It is transmitted through an infected mosquito when it is in the human bloodstream it multiplies inside the red blood cells and then bursts after a few days. When the virus spread it can cause severe headaches, nausea, fever, coma, vomiting, and other symptoms. The best way to prevent malaria is to take prescription medicine and avoid mosquito bites that way you will be safer from the possibility of getting infected.
Measles
Measles is an acute viral respiratory illness. Measles symptoms appear 7 to 14 days after contact with the virus and typically include high fever, cough, runny nose, and watery eyes. The only way to prevent this disease is to get vaccinated it is said to be the best way to protect yourself and others against measles. Measles vaccine is a routine vaccination given to children in the United States. Measles vaccine is usually given in two doses. Unfortunately once you get infected by the virus there is no specific treatment for it

Natural Does not Mean Safe

MENTAL HEALTH
You Ask, We Answer
What causes depression?
Symptoms of depression vary from person to person, but often include feeling low, numb, worthless or without hope. You may find you sleep too much or too little, don’t eat properly, and withdraw from social contact with friends and family. Some people will even have thoughts about self-harming or suicide.
There are lots of reasons why someone might feel depressed, but sometimes there isn’t any obvious reason. It can be caused by a difficult life event – losing a job, relationship difficulties, or physical health problems like illness and disability, or low self-esteem.
How can I speak to and help someone with a mental health problem like depression or anxiety?
Encourage them to seek help
Perhaps the most important thing you can do is encourage them to seek appropriate treatment. You can reassure them by letting them know that help is out there, and that you will be there to support them.
Don’t be afraid to bring it up
It takes a lot for someone to say, ‘I need help’, but it doesn’t hurt to raise the subject yourself. Try to be open about depression and difficult emotions, so they know that it’s OK to talk about what they’re experiencing. Sometimes, you don’t have to explicitly talk about mental health to find out how they are doing – it can be as simple as texting them to let them know you’re thinking of them, or suggesting that you go out for dinner or a walk.
What is the best way to improve my mental well-being?
Diet
Eating fresh fruit and vegetables daily helps provide the nutrients needed to nourish your mind and body
Sleep
There’s a close relationship between sleep and mental health.
Being outdoors
There is strong evidence to suggest that the combined mix of colours, sounds and smells we find outdoors act together to stimulate our senses.
Exercise
Structured physical activity can play a key role in someone’s recovery from a mental health problem and in staying well for years to come. When you exercise, your brain chemistry changes through the release of ‘feel good’ hormones called endorphins.
I feel quite low sometimes. Should I see a therapist?
One of the most important things to do if you’re feeling down is to open up. Most people feel more comfortable confiding in a close friend or family member in the first instance. Often simply talking about it helps. If the problem continues and begins to interfere with everyday life, you can speak to your GP, who can talk you through the support that’s available. Being sociable and connecting with other people is rewarding in its own right and can significantly improve mental wellbeing. Group yoga or Pilates classes can help you learn breathing techniques, which can encourage you to relax and switch off from external stresses.
