” Sonhar o sonho impossível, sofrer a angústia implacável, pisar onde os bravos não ousam, reparar o mal irreparável, amar um amor casto à distância, enfrentar o inimigo invencível, tentar quando as forças se esvaem, alcançar a estrela inatingível: essa é a minha busca.” Dom Quixote. 42frases.com.br Marii Freire Pereira https://pensamentos.me/ VEM comigo!

“This is about whether the Republican Party is going to perpetuate lies about the 2020 election and attempt to whitewash what happened on Jan. 6. Liz will not do that. That is the issue.” Source: Kevin McCarthy Has Had It With Liz Cheney. Officially.

(Me: sorry but shows stupidity of voters – just barely win out over pandemic nd now vote for someone who would made it worse.)

It is said that each person is an island,

Widely used in gardens as an ornamental plant and hedge,  ora-pro-nobis  is increasingly present in  nutrition  and  gastronomy . With a high protein content  , the plant has even been called the “steak of the poor”. Nutritionists confirm its  benefits  and versatility, but recommend that it be used as a supplement to the diet and not as the only protein source.

Calderon, 46, said he viewed his participation in the research as a way to help current and future diabetics, including families such as his where it has been passed down through generations. If it improves people’s lives, he said, it will be worth it.

Mata, who had 60 percent of her mesenteric fat removed, has seen even more dramatic changes a month out from her surgery.

Previously, her blood sugar was in the high 200s, at one point climbing to 499. Now, it is in the low 100s, reaching a maximum of 150.

Her appetite has changed, too. She becomes full faster and no longer craves sugar. Greasy and fried foods no longer sit well with her.

“For me, personally, it’s a lifesaver, because I never even thought I could get those numbers that low,” she said.

“You can change your life.”

To clarify the focus, a distinction can be made between upstream, midstream, and downstream stages of intervention for a prevention system. Downstream prevention is usually understood as prevention from a public health perspective—ie, prevention of disease spread. Upstream prevention and midstream prevention are both encompassed by what we term deep prevention. Upstream prevention is an area that a global pandemic treaty should address, specifically from the One Health perspective.1,  3,  4,  5,  6 There is a link between certain key drivers of environmental degradation, such as illicit wildlife traffic or land-use change, and the increased frequency of zoonotic disease outbreaks,4,  7 which has led WHO and other organisations to call for the suspension of sales of captured living wild mammals in food markets.8 This link directs attention to the relevance of some widely ratified environmental treaties—eg, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, the Convention on Biological Diversity, or the UN Convention to Combat Desertification—for reducing risk of zoonosis. A global pandemic treaty could strengthen the coherence between these environmental treaties and the I
