Vaccine Development Against COVID-19

-


    The pandemic has been one of the greatest health crises in recorded history. Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent infectious diseases. Vaccination protects the vaccinated persons and those around them who are vulnerable to the diseases, reducing the risk of diseases spreading among family members, school mates or colleagues, friends, neighbours and other people in the community.

    There are many theories surrounding Covid-19 vaccination. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) and expert health authorities around the world are urging people to get vaccinated as the best solution to end the pandemic. The sooner people are immunized, the faster it will be possible not only to slow the spread of the disease, but also to limit its impact on the economy.


    According to the WHO, vaccination is a simple, safe and effective way to protect against harmful diseases before coming into contact with them, as it activates the body's natural defenses to learn to resist specific infections and strengthen the immune system. In this sense, vaccination against COVID-19 will reduce the risk of becoming seriously ill and dying, since the person will be better protected. Immunity will not be 100%, since a vaccinated person can still catch the disease; however, the consequences for the body are expected to be much less.

    The main benefits are: COVID-19 vaccines can also prevent you from becoming seriously ill even if you contract the virus, TAll Covid-19 vaccines are safe and effective, by getting vaccinated yourself, you also protect the people around you. It is a safer way to develop immunity.

Mum’s The Word

“Mothers hold their child’s hand for a moment and their hearts for a  lifetime .”  The 12th of May is the day we celebrate the women who raised us. They dedicate their lives to us, they’re selfless yet strong, they’re affectionate and protective. It goes without saying that being a mother is one of the toughest, most rewarding jobs out there. But one day isn’t enough to show our gratitude for all their hard work and sacrifices to make us happy, safe, and well. They do so much for us, and sometimes, we don’t even realise that. So the least we can do is honor them whenever we get the chance. Mother is always the special and most important person in every kid’s life. She carries for nine months and creates a strong bonding with children till her last breath. Moms also sacrifice their dreams to give the best in everything for their little ones. The love of a mother is pure and unadulterated. She does not have any selfish motives and offers the most unconditional love on earth. All...

The Future is Feminist

     Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.  The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could reverse the limited progress that has been made on gender equality and women’s rights.  The coronavirus outbreak exacerbates existing inequalities for women and girls across every sphere – from health and the economy, to security and social protection.      The empowerment and autonomy of  women and the improvement of their political,  social, economic and health status is a highly  important end in itself. In addition, it is essential  for the achievement of sustainable  development. The full participation and  partnership of both women and men is required  in productive and reproductive life, including  shared responsibilities for the care and nurturing  of children and maintenance of the household.  In all parts of th...

New Education Quality in the midst of Pandemic

      During this pandemic, students faced a sudden change from on-campus learning to online learning. The pandemic itself has caused much worry, stress and grief.     The self-isolation and distance learning in educational institutions because of the pandemic stimulate the use of e-learning technologies in practice. The transformation system was the result of an extraordinary adaption of the system to the conditions of the pandemic. I have a lot of beneficial affects to both teachers and students as well as the families not only for Covid-19 but also to protect students from outside the house. The disadvantages are that with no faculty around for face-to-face interaction and no classmates who help with constant reminders about pending assignments the chances of getting distracted and losing track of deadlines are high. Not all students have gadgets and internet connection due to lack of money. This is why they are struggling to their lessons.     Face...
