RUBELLA VACCINE - EXPLANATION

September 29, 2008 by Fernando Funicello

Due to the large number of questions and doubts about the vaccine and campaign against rubella, mainly related to pregnancy, seek a doctor gynecologist / obstetrician so that it can solve most of the questions found here.

We thank Dr. Francisco Alves Engelke, who is also the technical director of Alpha Home Care, which provides medical services to the home in Sao Paulo.

Come to exclarecimentos:

What is rubella?

Much has been said about the disease rubella: an infectious disease caused by a virus, highly contagious and high prevalence.

The main concern of rubella virus infection is when a woman contracts the virus during pregnancy. In these cases the virus is transmitted to the fetus causing the disease (which is called Congenital rubella syndrome in), which can result in serious problems, such as spontaneous abortion, congenital defects in children, cataract, glaucoma, deafness, mental retardation, and so on.

Why the campaigns of vaccination?

The vaccination campaigns, aimed at reducing the occurrence of these problems by encouraging the population to be vaccinated to prevent the epidemic of rubella that usually occur every 6-10 years in the winter and spring. The long-term goal is to eradicate this disease in the country as happened with the infant paralysis.

In Brazil, vaccination is compulsory from 1 year of age since 1997, administered, usually in combination with measles and mumps vaccine - triple vaccine.

The vaccine used is made from live attenuated strain of the virus RA 27 / 3.

The vaccine is effective in preventing disease?

Yes The rubella vaccine is effective in almost 100%.

Besides the children, the vaccine should be given to women who have not had the disease before becoming pregnant.

The vaccine should also be given to men?

Yes The campaign this year sought to achieve especially the male audience on the basis of epidemiological data from 2007 that showed that about 70% of confirmed cases of rubella occurred in men.

Why did the campaign emphasis on the age of 20 to 39 years?

Because this was the age range most affected by the disease in both sexes in the data of 2007 of more than 8000 cases reported. In 2008, the situation is repeating, as shown in the chart of the Ministry of Health

The vaccine can be given to pregnant women?

No, it is contraindicated for pregnant women.

It also recommends that women vaccinated not become pregnant within one month after the administration of the vaccine.

And if you discover that the woman was pregnant and who received the vaccine?

The contraindication to vaccination of pregnant women is based on a theoretical risk, since the vaccine is made from live attenuated virus. The risk of a problem occurs is less than 1%, so even this percentage is considered by limitations, not statistics based on data from occurrence of the disease.

There is no documented case of the occurrence of the disease over the last 30 years in children of women who were pregnant and who received the vaccine inadvertently.

So, if a patient is pregnant after discovering be vaccinated, there is no reason to take any hasty measure, but only inform the doctor should keep an expectant conduct.

Considering the information collected in campaigns made in Brazil and the experience of other countries such as USA, UK, Germany and so on., The possibility of congenital rubella happen to (the transmitted to the fetus by the mother) in crinças born to mothers who took inadvertently the vaccine is minimal, if not nil.

The woman who is breastfeeding may take the vaccine?

After childbirth, women can receive the vaccine at any time. There is no contraindication to breastfeeding if the woman took the vaccine or even if you have the disease rubella.

There are other contra-indications for vaccination against rubella?

Yes The vaccine is contraindicated for people who have had severe allergic reaction to the vaccine, the subjects with congenital or acquired immunodeficiency diseases (AIDS), with low immunity, under chemotherapy treatment and bone marrow transplant surgery which has been made for less than two years.

Others who took the vaccine can take alcoholic beverage?

In principle, there are no references to interactions between alcohol and the use of vaccine. But it would be better as a precaution not associate the two. In general, you should not combine with any beverage product.

We hope to have helped solve all the questions, or at least most found in the comments.

Special thanks to Alpha Home Care and to Dr. Engelke Francisco.

MUSCULAÇÃO in the car?

September 25, 2008 by Gustavo Brick

I just saw the matter in G1 at least funny!

The physiotherapist Gersely Angeli (?) Suggests some exercises to practice in the car, or better, in transit, or better yet, inside the car in the middle of traffic.

Today is National Day of Transit, as it is, the more a day dedicated to awareness people to take care of themselves.

The physiotherapist Gersely (that name is that?) Shows some exercises to practice in the car during transit, the idea is good, but imagine the person who has a Fiat Uno, a Ford Ka, or any other mini-car without insulfilm I confess that it would fun to see a person if all twisted in the car, or be concerned, what is happening with this driver?

Another problem that these exercises in the car can generate more traffic is still as the Gersely (pronounced like that name?) Proposes that the driver perform at least 10 repetitions for each movement, but what if the traffic starts to flow? The person has to exercise, the first coupling, or do the two together?

Finally, check out the video:

Oh, and speaking in the National Transit Week there will a site Creationism's Honda with tips on manners in traffic.

IS THE END OF fat?

September 24, 2008 by Julian Garcia

The revised season, edition 539, as a matter of bringing a new law hood over and this time it is targeting, in the struggle for health, food fat.
Well, as I shall find that many nutritionists love the news, it was that we needed to compel people to their food as it should etc ... but not quite.

Actually I quite agree with the law and dry with the ban on smoking in all enclosed environments collectives. Okay, I agree that everyone knows about his life and makes it what you want, drink, smoke, a enfim each is responsible for his own life. But in both cases (drinking and smoking) will interfere with the life and health of others, are causing accidents by drunk driving or smoking near people who are forced to inhale the smoke of cigarettes of others.

Already in the case of consuming fatty foods, the government would establish a deadline, between 3 and 5 years, so that 100% of food produced in the country no longer use trans fat (fat obtained by the addition of a molecule of hydrogen to vegetable oil makes a it solid) and the World Health Organization recommends that only 1% of the calories consumed daily and has resulted in trans fats.
The government argues that the trans fat, among other factors, causes an increase in bad cholesterol (LDL), and it increases spending on hospitalizations, surgeries and treatments of diseases resulting from poor nutrition.
It is correct that spending on health would be much smaller if people are aware and have a more healthy diet, but in my opinion is not banning the consumption of fatty foods that will resolve the health of people, because in that case who eat, will eat in their homes anyway.
The ideal would be a work of prevention and awareness of the population, the government is investing in prevention through nutrition education can achieve the same goals without interfering and controlling people's lives.

For more information about health, always consult a professional in the area.

September 19, 2008 by Gustavo Brick

It is the personnel issue is controversial ... How many times have not heard the zahar saying: "Oh, you shave? What X! This time I will not mention the preference of women for hair or make you better aesthetically. I received this text recently by e-mail, text already Rodou the Web, but even then I will publish here, I do not know who is the author only know it was very good again and I had to read. I have been through this experience with the wax, not the "bag" but in the chest, and doeuuuu, saw!

* Ps. I am not in the picture!

It follows the depilation ... I say, the text:

"I was watching TV one afternoon of Sunday, at that time that we can not invent anything to do, because the other day is Monday, quandominha disposed wife by my side and was playing with my 'shares." After a few minutes she came with the following idea: Why not plucked their eggs, so I could do 'other things' with eles.Aquela sentence was equal to a bell in my head. For a few seconds fiqueiimaginando what would be 'other things'. Replied that no, and this thing that hurt, but she came with arguments about new techniques for hair removal and I imagine the' other coisas'não tivemais as negar.Concordei. She and asked it to be naked while the equipamentosnecessários to seek such done.

I was looking at TV, but my mind was wandering by novassensações that only woke up when I heard the beep of microondas.Ela returned to the room with a pot of wax, a spatula and some pieces of equipment plástico.Achei those weird, but she was an air of 'Donada situation' that would leave any doctor urologist feeling to be resident.

I was calm and allow the rest of the process.

I asked to be in a position of quasi-roast chicken and liberal access to the area of watercress.

She took my eggs as who picks up two balls of porcelain and began apassar warm wax. I thought that feels wonderful!

Mr. Pinto was already all 'PIMPÃO' as people say: 'I am opróximo of the queue'! At first, I was wondering what would be the 'other things' queviriam.Após are completely dirty wax, she embrulhou both in plastic with both care that I thought would lead them to travel.

I wondered where she would have learned this technique of pleasure: NaThailândia, China or the Internet mesmo.Porém, after a few seconds she stretched the bag to one side and gave a sudden jerk.

All new sensations were exchanged for a sound PUUUUTA QUEEEE PARIUUUUUUU !!!!! ... almost spoken letter by letter.

I looked for the plastic to see if the leather of my bag had not been stuck together.

She said she still remained some pelinhos, and I needed to move again.

Replied promptly:
- Not fudendo!! If you depend on me they will be aípara eternity! Hold Dr. Left and Right in my Dr their hands as though the last eggs safe from the most beautiful bird in Amazon extinction, and went to obanheiro.

Felt the heart beating in ovos.Abri the shower and was the first time I dip the bag before the wet head.

I spent several minutes just leaving the ice water seeping from my body.
I left the bath, but in those moments of pain every man becomes a bebezinhonovo:
shits behind shit.
I got my post shave gel with chamomile 'soothing the skin', filling their hands and passed on the eggs.
It was as if it had happened in pepper sauce.
Bidet sat in the position of 'wash xereca' and left the chuveirinho allay the Drs, got a face towel and was waving eggs as a fighter who waves at the 10th round.
I looked at my painting.
He so alegrinho minutes ago, was so small that it seemed more like twin brother of my navel.
At this time my wife knocks on the door of the bathroom and asked if I was going well.
That voice before so seductive and velvety was also a typing mistake.
I left the bathroom and went back to my room.
She was arguing that the pubes had left by the roots, which lasted re-born.
For the thickness of the skin of my bag, not born here or down, my eggs will be that neither of quails', said.
She was asked to look like.
I told you to look away and two feet without touching anything and it will be laughing come the fuck in! Wear the shirt and went to sleep (only a T-shirt).
At that time sexopara me not to perpetuate the human species.
The other day I was in the morning I get to go to work.
The eggs were more calm, but that more red ripe tomatoes.
It was strange to feel the wind hitting in places never before visited.
I tried to put the underwear, but nothing done. Tried some of velvet shorts and nothing.
Wear the pants more comfortable in the closet and I found I was working without even underwear.
I walk into the same section a cowboy shit.
I spoke good day for everyone, but without looking into the eyes.
And I spent the entire day working on foot for fear of the backboard ripe tomatoes on any surface.

Result, some things should be done only by women.

It is no use trying to mix the worlds male and female. "

Toxic algae THE DAMS OF Guarapiranga and Billings

September 18, 2008 by Gustavo Brick

Got a bad liked the water from the filter of your home? Brush their teeth and felt something strange in tap water? I realized that something strange in the water, and that something strange is the dam of toxic algae Guarapiranga and Billings. Toxic as well? Well, the Sabesp denies that these algae affect the quality of water that is distributed to people, but if you come into direct contact with untreated water can get ringworm.

Analysis of the Institute of Botany of the State Department of Environment found that there are three types of toxic algae in the reservoirs Guarapiranga and Billings.

According to the study, the presence of algae is not new. The concern of specialists is with the excessive growth of these bodies, mainly focused on systems for the supply of case _The Guarapiranga. The lack in quantity of algae can contaminate the water.

The environmentalist Marussia Whitaker, Institute of Social, says that the current situation of Guarapiranga is conducive to the reproduction of the organisms, which feed mostly of organic material present in sewage.

"The water level is below normal, but the amount of sewage in the dam is the same. This means that the algae have more food, "says Marussia. With more food, the seaweed you play with more ease.

SEX ecologically correct

September 16, 2008 by Gabriel Aguilar

Imagine this scenario: Saturday, after ballad, that cat's faculty decided to leave (after three hundred and two hundred calls sms) on the ballad, so good: kisses, a hand here and another there, everything is way hot, then you resolves to take it to your apartment. The end, everything was planned that way, your friend (who shares an apartment with the interior was to visit the parents) and the climate is perfect to reach the quarter ... she turns off the light (until there all right, sometimes is the best option) and you, all excited takes the initiative, then it stops everything demand in the bed of IBAMA seal certifying that the wood is legal. You can not find it, so she decides that it does not go to bed ecologically incorrect ... Come into the kitchen then (nothing better than a good sink for a good night, and why not take some fruit, or even that coverage that remains of ice cream Friday's) and to take that strawberry to start the ritual she asks you if this fruit is organic, otherwise it does not accept use this "paraphernalia" sexual. Brochant !!!!!!!! No? Yeah, the girl read, or at least are trying to do a sex ecologically correct (???)

So you ask me: what is this p ... of sex ecologically correct? Easy, is nothing more than a series of suggestions designed (????) better known by the NGO, which is dedicated to caring for the planet, the green of the ecology. Yeah, you had the luck to grab a militant.

The Mexicans, my countrymen, to the webpage of the NGO in the country, innovated in this area in December to publish suggestions that are part of a guide ecossexual. When I read about the existence of this manual was curious to see what the suggestions of someone who thinks green, could make to make this merger (sex and ecology). My mind once polluted, once thought: putzzzzzzz, now will suggest that recycling of condoms after use. Hence, I went to the site, sent by my nephew, and I read the "10 commandments" ecossexuais.

Look below what with my comments:

  1. Turn off the lights in the hour H Hmm ... as I said, depending on the person is better. If you have been lucky enough to get a woman-shrimp, follow this commandment of NGOs, will be very useful.
  2. Fruit? Only if no pesticides, only organic. All right, someone, by chance, in time for hot going to worry why?
  3. Avoid seafood and holes of the sea, because they are in danger of extinction. Agree, someone still believes that this is a natural Viagra? Metrossexual that takes care of the body does not need this.
  4. Love recycled. This seems to be a legal initiative to seize anything that can be recycled ... but then try to take a broad recycled in Am ... hummm, I know, no?
  5. Use natural oils, the basis of water. Not those that are derived from petroleum. The site, moreover, suggests that language is the best instrument for this. But how well we remembered our friend CAFAO we must see if that was devastated Amazon forest or not.
  6. Slave of passion, not oil. I find that really cool. I myself refuse to wear leather, or some "tools" they used as the base oil. All right, someone needs it?
  7. Save water bathing together. I agree and disagree ... I mean I agree that it is too bathe together, using the same soap and ... .. but, I find time to shower more harsh, more muitoooooooo ... that not counting the tub or the ofurô.
  8. Bed sustainable. Before starting the RALE-and-roll, you need sure that the bed has the seals certificates of IBAMA, the IMETRO of ISO 2008, and even the Vatican ... Save me!
  9. Sex green. This is the most bizarre of the "commandments". It is for fans of spaking. The provision said that the mine before they start to beat you (or vice versa), you need (or she needs) to see if the wood that was made this man was approved by IBAMA. You can? A pat does not hurt, but a thwack, I guess so. 'm Out!
  10. Make love, not war. This is the best of all ... in fact, I think it should be a drunk trying to follow these "commandments" the streak, but one thing is true, when we start to love us even more and the other take care of our ecosystem, and thus have a planet far, far better.

And of course, as a result the sex surrender much more!

And you my dear readers, what do you think? Interested in following these precepts?

Fine PANTS FOR LARGE

September 12, 2008 by Gustavo Brick

Each has its own style of clothes as well as dresses, I, for example, always use shirts more fair, but already there are those who prefer wider clothes, the staff of Hip Hop is therefore nothing against it, but I doubt that there is No movement HipHop some Metrossexual.
In Florida fashion is the use of wide pants, well below the waist, where much of the underwear is showing, ugly, huh? For this reason the police in Riviera Beach is punishing the "long pants", the punishment ranges from $ 150 up to 30 days in jail. In 2008 it was found that students who attend schools with their "wide pants" would be suspended from school.

The wearing of pants low in Florida is considered "illegal" when the show leaves more than 5 cm of underclothes.
"Everything we do now is try to inform the staff that there is now a fashion that does not have a very good source," said Senator Gary Siplin at the time.
