Ungleiche Schwestern

Senioren um die Welt

Sie war von meinem ersten Lebenstag an präsent und prägte meine Kindheitsjahre und einen großen Teil meiner Jugendzeit. Es war für mich ganz natürlich, dass meine drei Jahre ältere Schwester immer die Führungsrolle übernahm, ich kannte es ja nicht anders. Sie begleitete mich mit einer Selbstverständlichkeit als große Schwester, Beschützerin und als Freundin. Sie war für mich viele Jahre lang die Starke, die alles konnte und alles wusste, so sah ich das jedenfalls damals.

Afraid of needles? China using inhalable COVID-19 vaccine | AP News

The Chinese city of Shanghai started administering an inhalable COVID-19 vaccine on Wednesday in what appears to be a world first.

The vaccine, a mist that is sucked in through the mouth, is being offered for free as a booster dose for previously vaccinated people, according to an announcement on an official city social media account.

Scientists hope that such “needle-free” vaccines will make vaccination more accessible in countries with fragile health systems because they are easier to administer. They also may persuade people who don’t like getting a shot in the arm to get inoculated.

China wants more people to get booster shots before it relaxes strict pandemic restrictions that are holding back the economy and are increasingly out of sync with the rest of the world. As of mid-October, 90% of Chinese were fully vaccinated and 57% had received a booster shot.

A video posted by an online Chinese state media outlet showed people at a community health center sticking the short nozzle of a translucent white cup into their mouths. The accompanying text said that after slowly inhaling, people hold their breath for five seconds, with the entire procedure completed in 20 seconds.

“Em nome do amor, a violência é suportável para manter a relação?”

É comum, discutirmos sobre violência todos os dias. Assim, como também é natural vermos notícias sobre a morte de mulheres de forma trágica. Infelizmente, o Brasil ocupa o 5° lugar no ranking mundial de mortes de mulheres ( Feminicídio), é uma estatística triste e desumana que a OMS ( Organização Mundial da Saúde alerta, e faz-nos refletir sobre essa realidade.

Sabemos que essa realidade é complexa, e vem principalmente, por parte de agressores que convivem com suas vítimas. O agressor é um ente que diante de posturas extremistas, ceifa a vida da esposa, companheira ou namorada.

É interessante ressaltar que, a mulher por amor ao homem, às vezes leva tempo para identificar os sinais de uma relação abusiva. Em geral, a mulher que vive um relacionamento conturbado, compreende os conflitos como algo normal. Então é necessário dizer que…
