  3. Unsichtbare Gefahr: Wie die Zahl der Hitzetoten berechnet wird

    Auch diese Woche stehen wieder Temperaturen über 30 Grad bevor. Die neuerliche, wenn auch schwächere #Hitzewelle erreicht zu Beginn der Woche mit stellenweise bis zu 34 Grad ihren Höhepunkt. Temperaturen wie diese können für Körper und Psyche sehr belastend sein, werden aber häufig unterschätzt. Fachleute sprechen daher bei Hitze von einer unsichtbaren Gefahr, auch die tatsächliche Zahl der Hitzetoten kann nur geschätzt werden.

    Ende Juni hatte die Hitzewelle laut Daten des von der EU-Gesundheitsbehörde #ECDC und der #Weltgesundheitsorganisation (#WHO) unterstützten Netzwerks #EuroMOMO in Westeuropa zu mehr als 10.000 zusätzlichen Todesfällen geführt.

  13. Half of Europeans with HIV are diagnosed late.

    A report from the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) shows that around 48% of people with HIV in the EU received a late diagnosis in 2024, delaying access to anti-retroviral treatment and prompting hidden transmission.

    The bloc should urgently rethink its testing strategies, warned the ECDC.

    In Europa ogni anno si verificano più di 670 mila infezioni da batteri resistenti agli #antibiotici, che causano oltre 35 mila decessi.
    Un terzo di questi - circa 12 mila - si verifica in Italia. Anche quest'anno il Italia
