    #SUPPORTING Article 21: Right to Freedom from Noise Pollution.

    Noise has been receiving increasing recognition as one of our critical environmental pollution problems today. Like air and water pollution, noise pollution increases with population density especially in our Hyderabad urban areas, it is a serious threat to our quality of life according to Article 21 of our Constitution which guarantees us as Indian Citizen, a dignified life which includes Right to Freedom from Noise Pollution.

    Today Noise pollution has also become the major problem in India, with some of the main sources of noise in residential areas including loud music which continues past midnight, early morning chanting in speakers, transportation, lawn care maintenance, construction, electrical generators, Elevated Metro Rail, wind turbines, crackers, explosions and people.

    In addition, poor urban planning, poor governance, slumberous administration and the absence of a more rigorous law or law enforcement agency are contributing to noise pollution, as industrial and residential buildings are often located close to one another due to SMART CITY PLANNING since 2015 and the lack of a written mandate for implementation of NOISE CONTROL Polices.

    NOISE LEVELS MEASURED DURING THE JUST CONCLUDED FESTIVITIES in Hyderabad, Secunderabad & Cyberabad has gone past 99.9dBA to 107dBA Leq-Lden-Ldn & CNEL during DAY and NIGHT TIMES. Which is making a mockery of the Environment (Protection) Act which was enacted in 1986 and The Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules, 2000.

    Noise-induced hearing loss is a major health problem for millions of people employed in noisy environments. Besides actual hearing loss, humans are affected in many other ways by high levels of noise. Interference with speech, interruption of sleep, and other physiological and psychological effects.

    " In einem Experiment wurden vier kontaminierte Milchproben kurz auf 72°C erhitzt. Die Hitzebehandlung über 15 oder 20 Sekunden – was weitgehend der klassischen Pasteurisierung entspricht – verringerte die Virustiter um mehr als 4,5 Log-Einheiten, inaktivierte das Virus jedoch nicht immer."

  3. One of the talks at #SMBE2023 was referring to history's famous plagues - of #BubonicPlague - as #pandemics but most seemed to be in just Europe and nearby regions?

    I'm not sure if I've heard those plagues called pandemics before?

    I thought #pandemic meant global, but maybe it just means very big?

    I vaguely recall West African #Ebola in the 2010s being called a pandemic, when only half a dozen cases got to any other continents?

  4. More fun (not really) cholera facts:

    -there were six major cholera epidemics mostly during the 1800s, but there is a 7th cholera epidemic that's currently ongoing in South America, since 1961. Yes, there are problems with sanitation and clean drinking water there, but it's also partly because of a new cholera strain which is less lethal but more able to survive in aquatic environments. It can hang out in algae or other microorganisms, plus the guts of molluscs, fish, and seabirds.
    -Pakistani doctors in the 60s invented a rehydration regimen that could be administered orally instead of intravenously and this has dramatically improved outcomes for cholera patients (especially where medical professionals are in short supply)

    This is just from ONE chapter. It's a really good book!

  5. New review: A formidable academic achievement, The Complete History of the Black Death is an exhaustive analysis of the plague's spread and mortality in medieval Europe that is highly valuable to scholars working on the history of infectious disease, but is not light reading material.
