Fifty Years of HOPE 2007 Annual Report of Project HOPE FIFTY YEARS OF HOPE 2007 Annual Report of Project HOPE For fifty years, “HOPE” has meant much more than a wish or a dream to millions of people—it’s meant a promise realized. Health Opportunities for People Everywhere—Project HOPE, as it is known around the world—has worked person-to-person, delivering health education and humanitarian assistance wherever hope is sorely lacking. At Project HOPE, we fight communicable diseases liketuberculosis and HIV/AIDS. We train health professionals and build medical facilities in areas devastated by conflict, natural disasters, and poverty. We’ve provided more than $1 billion worth of medicines to thousands of local health care organizations and institutions. And in country after country, we’ve left a legacy of effective and compassionate care. These are the stories and these are the voices of the people of Project HOPE.

  • (Not) Visiting Isolation Hospitals in Mid-Victorian Britain
    7 Infection and Citizenship: (Not) Visiting Isolation Hospitals in Mid-Victorian Britain Graham Mooney Local authority provision for the sequestration of infectious people mushroomed in Great Britain from the mid-1860s. By the First World War, more than 750 isolation hospitals contained almost 32,000 beds for infectious patients, most of whom were children. Trips to an isolation hospital were problematic because visitors might contract infection there and spread it to the wider community. Various strategies sought to minimise this risk or eliminate it altogether. This chapter argues that the management of isolation hospital visitors was typical of Victorian public health’s tendency to regulate people’s behaviour. By granting rights to, and conferring responsibilities on, the relatives of patients, visiting practices enshrined notions of citizenship that sought to govern ‘through’ the family. The isolation of people with infectious disease has attracted an increasing amount of attention from historians. The fundamental rationales for the institutional exclusion of the infected – namely the protection of the wider population, the prevention or stamping out of an epidemic outbreak – are practically self-evident. Yet scrutiny in a variety of metropolitan and colonial contexts also reveals a set of practices that, over the course of the nineteenth century, seemingly were ever more laden with undertones of coercion, moral and physical rehabilitation and normalisation. The removal of biologically dangerous individuals from their community surroundings

    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with JAMES F. McINTOSH Surgeon, Navy, Korean War. 1997 OH 361 1 OH 361 McIntosh, James F., (1923- ). Oral History Interview, 1997. User Copy: 2 sound cassettes (ca. 120 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 120 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Abstract McIntosh, an Edgerton (Wisconsin) native, details his medical schooling during World War II and subsequent Naval service during the Korean War. McIntosh discusses joining the V-12 program, the effects the program had on the University of Wisconsin, and receiving deferments. McIntosh speaks of deferments in essential industry and the year-round schooling. He talks about his duties as corpsman while assigned to Great Lakes Naval Hospital, his preceptorship in Sheboygan (Wisconsin), and his plastic surgery residence at Tulane (Louisiana) Charity Hospital (segregated at the time) before receiving orders to report to the USS Haven. McIntosh describes issues he had leaving residency at the Charity Hospital and reporting for duty. At one point he had received cancellation of orders; however, wanting to serve his two years, McIntosh ignored them and told his mother to say the orders arrived after his departure. McIntosh talks about the route to Korea and his impressions of the hospital ship and Korea. Describing the relationships between medical personnel and Navy ship command personnel, he tells several stories of how the medical staff would “rattle the ship captain’s cage.” McIntosh describes his ward, cooperation between the other wards, and how his medical decisions weren’t questioned by the “pompous ass” commanders.

  • A Night in Accident and Emergency
    34 spring-summer 2015/HesaMag #11 Special report 25/28 A night in Accident and Emergency Saint-Pierre University Hospital is the oldest hospital in Brussels. Located in one of the city’s most working-class neighbourhoods, Les Marolles, it occupies the site of a medieval leper colony. That social calling has lasted down the ages and is a key part of the institution’s identity. The hospital describes itself as ‘secular and social’ and is proud ‘to welcome all patients, regardless of their origin, philosophical or religious convictions, or social status’. We spent a night at Saint-Pierre, shadowing the hospital’s accident and emergency nurses. Denis Grégoire ETUI Photographs: Martine Zunini 35 spring-summer 2015/HesaMag #11 Special report 26/28 Wednesday, 11 February – 9.45 p.m. The staff working the afternoon shift hand over to the night team. The two teams are gathered together in a glass-walled room re- served for doctors and nursing staff, known as 'HQ'. They are huddled around a set of wooden pigeonholes containing various doc- uments about patients, such as requests from doctors to run tests. A nurse passes on the key information about the patients receiving treatment: 'In cubicle 3, there’s a gentleman we know well. He comes every three months. It’s extremely difficult to insert his drip.' 'In cubicle 4, we have a gentleman who has come in because he’s confused. He’s quite fretful and he’s pulled his drip out. He’s on vali- um,' … and so on. The night team takes over.

  • April 7, 2020 Summary the United States Now Has 383,965
    April 7, 2020 Summary The United States now has 383,965 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 12,021 reported related deaths. France’s health minister announced that the country had not reached the peak of its epidemic and was “still in a worsening phase.” France has recorded more than 78,167 cases and 10,328 deaths. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is receiving oxygen support in an intensive care unit as he battles a worsening coronavirus infection. Turkey has ordered all citizens to wear masks when shopping or visiting crowded public places and announced it will begin delivering masks to every family, free of charge. South Carolina issued a shelter-in-place order, effective Tuesday at 5 PM. It is the 42nd state to issue an order of this kind. Approximately 95 percent of the U.S. population is or will soon be under directives to stay home. New Jersey Governor Murphy signed an executive order closing all state parks, state forests, and county parks in the state, because too many people have failed to observe social distancing guidelines. In New York, the death toll reached a new one-day high, as 731 more people died in the state. The grim tally followed two days in which new deaths dropped below 600. Governor Cuomo said that while the state’s new death toll was upsetting, he was encouraged by data showing that the rate of hospitalizations had fallen for several days, suggesting that the spread of the virus could be plateauing. President Trump granted Governor Cuomo’s request to allow the treatment of COVID-19 patients on the USNS Comfort.

The ventilator was added to the list of authorized ventilators, ventilator tubing connectors and ventilator accessories under the ventilator EUA that was issued in response to concerns relating to insufficient supply and availability of FDA-cleared ventilators for use in health care settings to treat patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. The FDA published Q&A about COVID-19 and pets.
