Violência Contra a Mulher

Violence Against Women

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Vocês sabem o que mais causa morte de mulheres no nosso país? O inconformismo. Sim! O inconformismo a liberdade de expressão, a locomoção e a escolha dessa mulher.
O Brasil tem uma estatística vergonhosa em relação ao feminicídio, por exemplo. Mulheres que morrem pela condição do gênero feminino. Essas vítimas, elas têm uma relação de afeto com o seu agressor ou ” futuro assassino “. É triste dizer isso, mas é assim que acontece.
Não falar, não dá voz a mulher que é vítima de violência, é sim, uma forma de querer abafar, calar-nos diante de nossos direitos. É preciso falar, é portanto, denunciar!

Mulheres falem!…

Eagerly awaited COVID lifesavers molnupiravir, Paxlovid now wait for patients | CIDRAP

Two oral COVID-19 antiviral medications, molnupiravir (Merck) and Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir and ritonavir, Pfizer), have been proven to be safe, effective, and convenient treatments to take at home.

However, patients have to surmount several hurdles to get them—including recognizing that they have symptoms of COVID-19, getting a COVID-19 test, having a positive test, securing a doctor’s appointment, getting a prescription, and finding a pharmacy with a supply—and they have to do all of this quickly. Antivirals need to be started within the first 5 days of COVID-19 symptom onset in order to produce a benefit.

“High-risk patients in the first few days after diagnosis don’t realize how much sicker they’re going to get, so they miss the opportunity to get better faster—and by the time they actually do, it’s too late,” said Bryan Jarabek MD, PhD, chief medical informatics officer and hospitalist at M Health Fairview in Minneapolis.
