WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

[What’s the bet that even this is an underestimate. Jan] HEALTH Minister Brian Chituwo says as many as 40,000 children will be born infected with HIV every year if intervention measures are not put in place. The minister also revealed that the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and Danish Fund for International Development (DFID) had procured 47 million male condoms to support the response to mitigate HIV and AIDS. Dr Chituwo said that mother-to-child transmission rate stood at 40 per cent and that of the 500,000 babies born every year, one out of every five pregnant women was infected with HIV. “The transmission rate of 40 per cent from mother to child means that we can expect 40,000 HIV infected children to be born every year if we do not put any interventions in place,” he said. The Health minister said this in a speech read for him by his deputy Kapembwa Simbao at the hand-over of safe motherhood and prevention of mother-to-child transmission supplies at Ndeke House in Lusaka yesterday. Dr Chituwo explained that the situation was compounded by the high number of home deliveries as over 70 per cent of rural women delivered at home. Dr Chituwo said that it was for this reason that Government had risen to the challenge of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to reverse the maternal mortality ratio (MMR). He also said the ministry had since adopted the road map for the improvement of maternal and neonatal health and the World Health Organisation (WHO) strategies which aimed at prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV during pregnancy, delivery and during breast-feeding. He said that the Government was working on preventing primary infection of HIV, especially among young people, and prevent unwanted pregnancies for HIV positive women. The minister also said the condoms procured by UNFPA and DFID would be distributed in sectors for free, including work places countrywide. The minister also revealed that United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) had procured motorbikes, midwifery equipment and drugs valued over US$ 247,000 to utilise in maternal and child health clinic counseling rooms. And the American government procured 750,000 doses of female contraceptives worth US$ 804,938 for the ministry of Health for distribution in the private sector. Source: AllAfrica.Com |
