Source: Lanngut, 2022 Archeoparasitology Intestinal parasites, such as helminths, have plagued humans for millennia, and in some cases have even co-evolved with us from pre-history. For example, the study of pinworms from humans, as well as the greater and lesser apes, uncovered the parallel evolution of pinworms and primates. The field of archeoparasitology, or the study of parasites preserved in an archeological context, can help inform scientists of the distribution, prevalence, evolution and origins of parasitic infections worldwide, and can even provide information on the past farming, dietary and sanitation practices of ancient communities. The first archeoparasitological study, conducted by Marc Ruffer in 1910, discovered calcified eggs of Schistosoma haematobium (the urinary blood fluke) in the kidneys of two 20 th dynasty Egyptian mummied individuals from around 10...

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — In-Home Supportive Services providers are getting some much-deserved help from the state. The California Department of Social Services, or CDSS, said it is issuing one‑time $500 bonus payments to roughly 550,000 In-Home Supportive Services, or IHSS, providers throughout California. The payments, which are already being distributed to IHSS providers, recognize these care providers for their critical efforts to help keep IHSS recipients safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. The IHSS program provides critical care and support to some of California's most vulnerable residents, allowing them to remain safely in their own homes. To be eligible, recipients must be over 65 years of age, or disabled, or blind. Disabled children may also be eligible for IHSS. The California Department of Social Services reported that there are more than 1,800 IHSS providers in Lake County, serving more than 2,150 authorized recipients. As of Jan. 1, due to an updated contract between the...

Aubree Jordan of Madison has suffered from endometriosis since she was in middle school. She was a regular patient at The Woman's Clinic in Madison, and saw her doctor up to five times a year.  But after a surgery at the clinic as a college student, she incurred a bill she was slowly paying as she was able. Before she could, though, she said she received a letter from her doctor stating she couldn't come to her upcoming appointment until the bill had been paid in full. Jordan's experience was not a unique one — and certainly not at The Woman's Clinic, where triage nurses review patient records and play interference. If the patient has a past due bill, nurses alert the billing office, and an employee then calls the patient and asks for payment before a nurse can return her call. This holds true even in cases where the patient has indicated on the phone prompt that their call is an emergency.  The clinic administ...

Photo: Katie Cooper For patients at the Adult Inpatient Mental Health Unit at St. Joseph's Health Centre, group activities don't just break up the day – they are a lifeline in times of painful isolation. "Isolation is such a big contributor to acute mental health problems," says the unit's Recreation Therapist Rachel Blair. "Group interventions are really important, now more than ever." Blair and Spiritual Care Practitioner Roberta (Robbie) Nanson, who co-host a number of group activities in the unit, note that many people with mental illness are marginalized and self-isolate at the best of times. The pandemic has compounded that isolation with stay-at-home orders and shuttered community resources. "When you have depression or anxiety or mental illness with a psychotic feature, that isolation is really not a safe environment to staying well or recovery and healing,...

Boys aged 12 to 15 have a small but increased risk of heart problems after receiving a second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, Israeli researchers reported on Wednesday. Myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle, occurred in one of 12,361 boys of that age group within a week of receiving a second dose, the study found. The cases were mild, and the side effect remains uncommon. Moreover, several studies have shown that the risk of myocarditis after Covid is much higher than that after vaccination. Still, the Israeli figure is higher than the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate of one case per 16,129 vaccinated adolescents aged 12 to 17. Israeli researchers previously reported that nearly 11 of every 100,000 boys and men aged 16 to 29 were at heightened risk of myocarditis after vaccination. Although the new results are based only on the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, other studies have found that the incidence of myocarditis may be higher with the mRNA vaccine made...

Introduction The poultry industry is one of the most productive agricultural sectors in Ethiopia, which serves as a source of major protein supplement for the growing population of the country. However, disease outbreaks are a major constraint of this industry. 1,2 Infectious bursal disease (IBD), also known as Gumboro, is one of the most important contagious viral diseases of immature chickens globally. 3 The affected chickens have reduced antibody response to vaccinations, strong post-vaccine reactions, and increased susceptibility to concurrent or secondary infections. 4 The disease was reported in Ethiopia for the first time on farms at Bishoftu in 2002 with a mortality rate as high as 50% in the affected broilers and layers. 5 The most economic losses associated with IBD emanated from its immunosuppressive effect that leads to poor vaccination response, secondary bacterial, viral, protozoan infections, poor performance, and treatment expenses. 3,6 This disease is caused...
