    The Covid–19 Pandemic and Haemglobin Isorders

    THE COVID–19 PANDEMIC AND HAEMGLOBIN ISORDERS UPDATE: 29 June 2021 Vaccinations “Immunization is a key component of primary health care and an indisputable human right. It is also one of the best health investments money can buy. Vaccines are thus critical to the prevention and control of infectious-disease outbreaks. They underpin global health security and will be a vital tool in the battle against antimicrobial resistance”. – WHO https://www.who.int/health- topics/vaccines-and- immunization “Since the beginning of the pandemic, WHO has taken steps to prevent an “infodemic”— defined by the organization as “an overabundance of information and the rapid spread of misleading or fabricated news, images, and videos.” WHO and the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit organization that administers Wikipedia, have established a collaboration to expand the public’s access to the latest and most reliable information about COVID-19”. Information about the initiative is available at: https://www.who.int/news/item/22-10- 2020- the-world-health-organization-and-wikimedia-foundation-expand-access-to- trusted- information-aboutcovid-19-on-wikipedia TIF shares the concerns of false information and misleading overabundance of information. This often happens in the effort to enhance hope to a population that is suffering not only from the disease itself, but also from its economic future, since lockdown/isolation practices are stifling the market economies of every country around the world. Hope however, must be based on realistic expectations and information. For these reasons, TIF updates on new developments concerning vaccinations and new therapies are scanned for accuracy and are reviewed now more regularly.

    Cuba's Women of Science Cuba’s National Regulatory Authority & COVID-19: Olga Lidia Jacobo-Casanueva MS Director, Center for State Control of Medicines and Medical Devices (CECMED) Tania L. Aguilar-Guerra MD MS, Esther M. Fajardo-Díaz MS, Conner Gorry MA As of this writing, more than 4.6 million Cubans (over 40% of the population on the island), had received at least their E. Añé fi rst dose of Soberana 02 or Abdala, two of fi ve vaccine candidates for SARS-CoV-2 developed and produced on the island. Late-phase clinical trial data revealed that Abdala is 92.28% effective after the full, three-dose cycle and Soberana 02 is 91.2% effective after two doses, when followed by a booster of Soberana Plus.[1] Cuban health authorities have committed to vaccinating the entire population, including children aged 3–18 years old, using these vaccines by the end of 2021. The fi rst pre-clinical, peer-reviewed data are available,[2] with clinical trial results already submitted to various international journals. Building on decades of biotechnology know-how developing, producing and administering 11 preventive vaccines for childhood diseases—used in the nation’s universal health system and also marketed elsewhere—Cuba is the fi rst, and to date only, country in Latin America and the Caribbean to develop its own vaccine candidates for COVID-19 (Soberana 01; Soberana 02; Soberana Plus; Abdala and Mambisa; see Box on following page). In a strategy designed to ensure comprehensive and importantly, independent solutions to the global health crisis, research institutes and manufacturing hands-on experience in nearly every facet of regulation.

No, I am not talking about action to fight climate change. I am talking about words and more words—much has been W written about the position that India must take or not take when it comes to declaring a net-zero goal. Much has been discussed in closed-door meetings on the same. John Kerry, the US climate envoy, was in town in the lead up to President Joe Biden’s climate leaders summit on April 22-23. He wanted to cajole and push us to act—say something big when the leaders meet. The good news is that climate change is back on the agenda. The bad news is that we are discussing the wrong things; we are in danger of once again losing the opportunity to drive home the need for ambition and equity in climate change action. Just consider the narrative in Delhi. It was not about the need to take stock of what has been done or not done to meet the Paris commitments—the voluntary targets countries have taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in this decade; it was not about how minuscule, completely off track and inequitable the Paris targets are.
