  • Inside the Ebola Wars ­ the New Yorker
    4/13/2017 Inside the Ebola Wars ­ The New Yorker A REPORTER AT LARGE OCTOBER 27, 2014 I﹙UE THE EBOLA WARS How genomics research can help contain the outbreak. By Richard Preston Pardis Sabeti and Stephen Gire in the Genomics Platform of the Broad Institute of M.I.T. and Harvard, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They have been working to sequence Ebola’s genome and track its mutations. he most dangerous outbreak of an emerging infectious disease since the appearance of H.I.V., in the early nineteen-eighties, seems to have begun on DTecember 6, 2013, in the village of Meliandou, in Guinea, in West Africa, with the death of a two-year-old boy who was suffering from diarrhea and a fever. We now know that he was infected with Ebola virus. The virus is a parasite that lives, normally, in some as yet unidentified creature in the ecosystems of equatorial Africa. This creature is the natural host of Ebola; it could be a type of fruit bat, or some small animal that lives on the body of a bat—possibly a bloodsucking insect, a tick, or a mite. Before now, Ebola had caused a number of small, vicious outbreaks in central and eastern Africa. Doctors and other health workers were able to control the outbreaks quickly, and a belief developed in the medical and scientific communities that Ebola was not much of a threat. The virus is spread only through direct contact with blood and bodily fluids, and it didn’t seem to be mutating in any significant way.

World Health Organization (WHO) reported that the number of Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) had doubled over the past week to total 62 cases. Thirty-five of the patients infected with Ebola have died, including seven health care workers. The Ebola outbreak in the DRC is separate from the worsening Ebola crisis in West Africa. All of the cases in the DRC are localized in Jeera country and can all be traced to one initial case that was reported on August 26th. The new statistics for the Ebola outbreak in the DRC were posted here. On September 11th, Liberian Finance Minister Amara Konneh held a press conference on the impacts of the Ebola outbreak in Liberia, warning that the country is at war with an enemy that it cannot see. Minister Konneh’s remarks echo those delivered last week by Liberian Defense Minister Brownie Samukai, who cautioned that the Ebola crisis poses a serious threat to Liberia’s national existence. Both ministers reported that the epidemic has disrupted the country’s ability to function normally and put further strains on Liberia’s already weak health care infrastructure. Excerpts from both press conferences were highlighted here.

  • 1 Exploring the Global History of American
    Exploring the Global History of American Evangelicalism Special Issue of Journal of American Studies Introduction Abstract: This introduction embeds the special issue "Exploring the Global History of American Evangelicalism" into current historiographical debates in the field of US evangelicalism and globalization. It lays out the methodological framework and thematic scope of the special issue. His room was a microcosm; all the toxins, estrangements, and disintegrations of the world outside were present in antic compression. It was Liberia, late July 2014, and the Ebola epidemic had the country in its teeth. A few miles south of Monrovia, the Liberian capital, resided the mission hospital of Eternal Love Winning Africa (ELWA), one of the few medical centres that had not entirely collapsed as the Ebola contagion, in the course of its advance, felled physicians and patients alike. And there at the mission, confined to his room after contracting the disease, lay Kent Brantly, an American missionary doctor. Brantly had lost control of his bodily functions. To avoid infection, those caring for him wore full protective hazmat suits; Brantly could see only their eyes. Trying “to rest and not die,” Brantly listened as his laptop played passages of scripture set to music. He found particular solace in a reading from Romans 8, in which the apostle Paul declared the availability, across “whole creation,” of the redeeming power of Jesus Christ and the promise that, despite all the dangers and evils of the world, no one who loved Christ would ever

    FEED THE FUTURE: PARTNERSHIPS FOR A FOOD- SECURE 2030 Moderator Secretary Tom Vilsack U.S. Department of Agriculture @USDA Tom Vilsack serves as the Nation's 30th Secretary of Agriculture. As leader of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Vilsack is working hard to strengthen the American agricultural economy, build vibrant rural communities and create new markets for the tremendous innovation of rural America. In more than six years at the Department, Vilsack has worked to implement President Obama's agenda to put Americans back to work and create an economy built to last. USDA has supported America's farmers, ranchers and growers who are driving the rural economy forward, provided food assistance to millions of Americans, carried out record conservation efforts, made record investments in our rural communities and helped provide a safe, sufficient and nutritious food supply for the American people. The Obama Administration and USDA have made historic investments in America's rural communities, helping create ladders of opportunity for rural people and building thriving rural economies for the long term. As chair of the first-ever White House Rural Council, Secretary Vilsack and USDA are taking steps to strengthen services for rural businesses and entrepreneurs by finding new ways to make the connection between the demand for investment in rural areas and the financial community. USDA is promoting American agriculture by conducting cutting-edge research and expanding markets at home and abroad. The years 2009-2014 represent the strongest six years in history for agricultural trade, and new trade agreements President Obama signed with Colombia, South Korea and Panama will create even more export opportunities for American farmers and ranchers.

  • Ottobre 2014 - Gennaio 2015 in Copertina: L’Attrice E Drammatur- Ga Paola Bigatto Interpreta Hannah Arendt Nel Suo Spettacolo “La Banali- Tà Del Male”
    BEST OF ottobre 2014 - gennaio 2015 In copertina: L’attrice e drammatur- ga Paola Bigatto interpreta Hannah Arendt nel suo spettacolo “La banali- tà del male”. Foto di Elisabetta Goggi Agli “Amici di Gariwo” p. 2 INDICE L’esempio di Barbiana p. 3 di Nadia Neri ed Emanuela Bellotti Chi è sotto processo, Eichmann o Arendt? p. 8 articolo di Seyla Benhabib L’antisemitismo in America Latina p. 13 di Enrique Krauze e Baruch Tenembaum La storia - Alice Domon p. 19 la missionaria delle “Madri di Plaza de Mayo” Agli “Amici di Gariwo” Apriamo questo numero sulla condizione attuale della didattica in Italia, in vista del seminario "Le figure dei Giusti tra teorie etiche e pratiche di vita", dedicato principalmente agli insegnanti, che terremo a novembre al Memoriale della Shoah di Milano. Due collaboratrici di Gariwo - una psicoterapeuta e una maestra elementare della sezione didattica - dicono la loro sull'esperienza della scuola di Don Milani a Barbiana, tornata di attualità nel perenne dibattito su riforme scolastiche sempre giudicate inadeguate. Di carattere squisitamente teorico/filosofico è invece un'altra controversia scoppiata recentemente a livello internazio- nale tra i sostenitori e i detrattori della teoria arendtiana della "banalità del male" ispirata dal processo Eichmann. Abbiamo tradotto il contributo della filosofa americana Seyla Benhabib in risposta al libro della tedesca Bettina Strangneth appena tradotto negli Stati Uniti. Vi vengono affrontati con grande chiarezza e lucidità i nodi di un dibattito mai sopito, che riguarda molto da vicino la riflessione su bene e male, coscienza, responsabilità, indifferenza - in una parola: sui Giusti. L'America Latina è al centro dell'ultimo focus di questo numero, nella forma originale di un'analisi dell'antisemitismo del continente - non a caso molti nazisti vi trovarono rifugio, tra cui lo stesso Eichmann - e di una storia esemplare e tragica di opposizione alla dittatura di Videla con il soccorso ai perseguitati in Argentina.
