Investment in primary health care urgently needed to ensure COVID-19 recovery in the
Americas.
Increased public health spending must continue to improve hardest-hit primary care services such as
routine immunization programs, says PAHO Director.
Washington, DC, November 10, 2021 (PAHO) – With countries in the Americas reporting severe
disruptions in essential primary health care services, urgent investment is key to improving health
systems continuously weakened by the pandemic, said Pan American Health Organization (PAHO)
Director Carissa F. Etienne.
With cases rising in some parts of the region following a two-month decline, it is vital that countries
remain vigilant and prioritize public spending in heath so that no one is left behind.
“Few countries invest as much public spending in their health services as they should, leaving them
prone to shortages in health personnel and essential supplies.”
With the pandemic siphoning off financial and human resources, many countries have reported
interruptions in vital areas, such as routine immunization programs, support for chronic conditions
and mental- and reproductive health services.
Despite these disruptions, public investment in health has risen in many countries to ramp up ICU
capacity, increase hospital services, and deploy COVID-19 vaccines. But these increases cannot be a
short-term trend, the Director said.
All countries should increase public expenditures in their health systems to the recommended 6% of
national GDP or higher and should ensure that 30% of this funding goes to first level care.
“Primary care, as you have heard us say over and over again, is the backbone of our health systems,”
Dr. Etienne said, and more important than ever. “It’s at the primary care level that COVID testing,
contact tracking and tracing and immunizations take place.”
As economies remain strained, countries face difficult choices about how to spend limited funds. “We
cannot forget that health is an investment, not an expense,” the Director said. “As we learned with
COVID-19, health is at the core of vibrant societies. It keeps people working, kids in schools,
companies productive and economies growing.”
Turning to the COVID-19 situation in the region, Dr. Etienne said that in the past week countries
reported 700,000 new COVID infections and 13,000 deaths.
Several countries, including parts of Colombia and Bolivia and the Southern Cone countries, are
seeing upward trends after relaxing public health measures.
In the Caribbean, Cuba, Jamaica, and Puerto Rico have reported a drop in new infections while cases
are rising in the Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados. High numbers of cases are
also being seen in the Cayman Islands and Dominica.
Vaccination rates, however, continue to pick up pace, reaching an overall coverage of 48% in Latin
America and the Caribbean.
PAHO continues to work with manufacturers to secure additional doses, the Director added. The
organization has signed supply agreements with three manufacturers of WHO Emergency Use Listing
(EUL) vaccines and is in final negotiations with a fourth supplier of mRNA vaccines.

Which option best completes the paragraph below?
As with the Anglo-Saxon and Norman settlers of centuries past, the languages spoken by today’s ethnic communities have begun to have an impact on the everyday spoken English of other communities. For instance, many young people, regardless of _________ ethnic background, now use the black slang terms, nang (‘cool,’) and diss (‘insult’ — from ‘disrespecting’) or words derived from Hindi and Urdu, such as chuddies (‘underpants’) or desi (‘typically Asian’). Many also use the all-purpose tag-question, innit — as in statements such as you’re weird, innit. This feature has been variously ascribed to the British Caribbean community or the British Asian community, although it is also part of a more native British tradition - in dialects in the West Country and Wales, for instance — which might explain why it appears to have spread so rapidly among young speakers everywhere.

Microsoft’s Project Natick brings data centers underwater
Jordan Novet January 31, 2016 9:11 PM
Microsoft today unveiled Project Natick, a fascinating research
initiative that could bring cloud computing infrastructure closer to
big cities near large bodies of water — by putting data centers
underwater
Microsoft isn‘t running any web services, like Office 365, through
the data center infrastructure inside of these capsules. But
Microsoft did build one (named the Leona Philpot, after the Halo
character) and set it 30 feet underwater off of the California coast
for four months in 2015. The capsules could have their computing
hardware replaced every five years, but eventually they could well
be kept underwater, without people onsite, for 20 years or more.
And they could be powered by renewable energy, too.
"Project Natick reflects Microsoft‘s ongoing quest for cloud
datacenter solutions that offer rapid provisioning, lower costs,
high responsiveness, and are more environmentally sustainable,‖
Microsoft explained on the website for the project.
It‘s an unusual and forward-looking way for a company at
Microsoft‘s scale — or any scale, really — to operate its core data
center infrastructure. It‘s reminiscent of the Google barge that
some people suspected had been intended to house data center
hardware. (Other reports suggested it could be used for retail
purposes.) But that project has been forgotten. Major web
companies like Google and Facebook are now focusing on using
aircraft to deliver the Internet to people, which has taken up some
of the spotlight on research into new or better ways to deliver services. But the servers, storage, and networking equipment
have got to live somewhere.
One might think putting data centers in the ocean might have
environmental repercussions. But Microsoft is indicating that
nothing untoward happened in the initial experiment.
"During our deployment of the Leona Philpot vessel, sea life in
the local vicinity quickly adapted to the presence of the vessel,‖
Microsoft said on the Project Natick website.
Now Microsoft is looking to advance the research by building
larger capsules. People working on the project have begun
devising one three times as large as the first, according to John
Markoff of the New York Times.

Introduction to global food loss and food waste

consumption places such as homes, schools, restaurants and workplaces, more than half of all food
produced globally go to waste. This is a tragedy!
