C7: BRIEF AWARENESS OF ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE: STRATEGIES FOR INDIVIDUALS AND AGRICULTURE SECTOR PRACTICES (IN CONTEXT TO TANZANIA) TO CONTROL ITS PREVALENCE

Image
   Hello class without walls, It is another step in getting knowledge and getting better. I have been a great proponent of the idea that the ultimate measure of human intelligence is how we gain control and shape our surroundings in favor of human thriving. We freak out when things run out of our control like in pandemics COVID-19, we run bankrupt, businesses do not go as planned and many things that develop terror. Indeed, one of the tools to control the fate of things is knowledge. We gain knowledge and we use that knowledge to shape and control the fate of things surrounding us. Simply put, November 18-24, 2021 was a special week in the health sector particularly on the use of antibiotics. promulgated World Health Organization (WHO), it was a week of world antibiotic resistance awareness with the slogan “antimicrobials: handle with care”, aimed to educate the general public across the world on the proper use of antibiotics and risks that accelerate antibiotic resistance....

 Na Mwandishi Arnold Lusingo (Mwandishi ni mwanafunzi wa udaktari wa afya ya kinywa katika Chuo cha Primary health care Institute, Iringa Contacts: Twitter@kakadentine, FB: Arnold Lusingo) Tatizo la kutoa harufu mbaya kwenye kinywa hata baada ya kusafisha kinywa  limewakumba watu wengi sana na wao bila kujua sababu ya harufu hizo wametumia dawa mbalimbali za kienyeji na hata za hospitali bila mafanikio wala mabadiliko yoyote.   Hata hivyo zipo sababu nyingi zinahusishwa kuwa kama ni sababu kuu kusababisha harufu isiyoisha kutoka kwenye kinywa cha mtu, sababu hizo ni kama ifuatavyo. 1. Usafishaji mbovu wa kinywa (poor oral hygiene) 2. Uwepo wa jino lililotoboka na kuhifadhi mabaki ya vyakula. 3. Uwepo wa uchafu mgumu usioweza kutoka kwa mswaki ugaka (calculus). 4. Magonjwa ya fizi kwa namna zake(gingivitis, periodontitis). 5. Kuwepo kwa nyama iliyofunika jino linaloota hasa meno ya nyuma (flap). 6.

The class without walls is the platform where having knowledge is considered as taking responsibility. yes, I mean so what's the point of having knowledge and not being applied or shared. In this step I would like to share my knowledge with regard to uses of capsules. Recently, a friend of mine reached out to me with the question of why some medical pills have colored shells? well, since I am a pharmaceutical science student, I will answer it with more details as I have seen some misuse associated with those “colored pills”, professionally we call them capsules. So, in this article, I will cover the basic applied science of capsules and Do’s and Don’ts when taking them .(language used is very simple)   To answer the basic question, some drugs have color for marketing purposes, to make them attractive and rememberable to their customers, es...

In this segment I will discuss a phenomenon that I’ve observed over a while ago on myself and other folks around me, which I would call “A closer point of view” and “a far point of view” of looking things.   According to the John Hopkins neuroscience research and many other top neuroscience research institutes, the average person has  about 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day . Of those, 95% are exactly the same repetitive thoughts as the day before and about 80% are negative. Among these thoughts most are influenced by inputs from friends or media in contact, thus shapes our attitude, motivations, perspective, imagination, and understanding of certain situations. Attitude and motivation formed from those thoughts for tod...
