After his stay at the Carpenters,he had gone back to the orphanage “ the home of angels”. The nuns had found out about the abuse that jennings had received from the carpenters, they determined that him nor any other foster child would be staying there anymore. Jennings had told one of the nuns that he was going to be sick, the barley got to a sink before it came all up. Jennings then had gone to the nurse, he had explained that he did not eat anything but jell-o powder. “ why did you eat jello powder?” sister frances asked. “ i was hungry, sister. I had to eat something.” “didn’t they feed you?” “tears came to my eyes. I shook no.” Then after a while of him staying at the orphanage, his mother had finally came to get him and promised to never do it again. Since he has gone to the orphanage, he had missed so many school days that he had to be left back into the second grade. Jennings feels like his life is getting worse and

Measles is virus with a single-stranded RNA and two membranes: a fusion protein that infuses into the host cell membrane and the hemagglutinin protein that absorbs the virus into the cells. The primary site for invasion is in the epithelium of the nares. Measles is highly contagious and very infectious because it is easily transmitted when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The virus can stay in the air or on surfaces for up to two hours and infect many people who inhale the infectious agent or touch a surface, then be introduced to a new host through touch to

Parents,who think that they don't have to vaccinate because children around people who are vaccinated, are committing child abuse. Vaccines only protect the people who are vaccinated. When people don't vaccinate not only are they leaving themselves open to disease, but they are completely ignoring the fact that vaccines don't end the chance for vaccinated people to get sick. "If the decision to refuse vaccination only affected the individual, then refusal would be permissible, but refusing vaccination puts others in harm's way...People who refuse to vaccinate take advantage of the large majority of people who do vaccinate, free-riding off of their immunity" (Merino). Immunity can build up over time. By definition, child abuse is, “Child abuse

In Michelle Fox’s article, Expect measles outbreak to continue, says doctor, Dr. William Schaffner, Vanderbilt University’s School of Medicine, says that the outbreak will continue for some time because there is a sufficient number of unvaccinated children to continue the spread of measles. According to the CDC, there have been 84 cases of measles and 67 of those have been linked to the outbreak at Disney. Dr. Schaffner also reiterates that measles can be brought to the United States from overseas. If someone from another country comes here with measles and is around unvaccinated children, there is potential to spread the disease.

There are many viruses today that at one time were a deadly disease, however because of advances in technology and vaccinations, we no longer give them a second thought. Prior to the discovery of a vaccination, the United States reported a total of over 50,000 cases of measles outbreaks each year with 450-500 cases resulting in death. (NCIRD) Since the disbursement of an effective vaccination, the measles has been almost eradicated in the United States; however it is still abundant in other countries around the world. (The college of physicians of Philadelphia) Is this something we think of when we are traveling? Is it possible for people to visit or immigrate to the United States carrying the disease with

My current health issue in an underdeveloped country is the recent measles outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This country is prone to many disease epidemics, as a result of frequent wars, which have resulted in poor health infrastructure and government services. Many people are not able to get access to or afford the proper medical care that they need, and this can contribute to the spreading of the disease. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, measles is often a life-threatening issue, along with occurrences of malaria and cholera. Many additional factors have also led to the large number of people infected, such as shortages of medicine and trained medical staff, the delay in medical relief due to the failure of authorities

The advantages of child vaccination have been pertinent to a child’s overall health for numerous years. Over fifty years ago, in 1963, the measles vaccine was created and introduced to the United States. The measles vaccine was important to such a degree that it is referred to as a “life-saving advance.” This vaccine had the power to protect millions of children from the exceptionally contagious disease. Around this time, measles had the power to overcome four million children, create serious enough complications to hospitalize 48,000 children, and progress to bad enough conditions to result in death for more than 400 children on an annual basis (Parker). Childhood fatalities caused by measles has declined by 74% since the creation of the measles

Measles is an airborne disease that is spread through respiration (contact with fluids from an infected person's nose and mouth, either directly or through aerosol transmission (coughing or sneezing)), and is highly contagious—90% of people without immunity sharing living space with an infected person will catch it.[4] An asymptomatic incubation period occurs nine to twelve days from initial exposure. The period of infectivity has not been definitively established, some saying it lasts from two to four days prior, until two to five days following the onset of the rash (i.e., four to nine days infectivity in total), whereas others say it lasts from two to four days prior until the complete disappearance of the rash. The rash usually appears

There is a pandemic that affects up to 90% of people all around the world in their lifetime. (Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals, 2010) This is not diabetes, heart disease or Alzheimer’s but actually is a virus called HPV or Human papillomavirus. There is a way for people to protect themselves from this virus with the HPV vaccine. Many people have questions about this vaccine, like who should get it? Why should people so young be getting something that is known to be transmitted sexually? Is the vaccine safe? Is it effective? Or how does it work to protect against the virus? Other questions that may be asked are of the virus itself, what types of cancers does it cause? How does it work? or who is the most susceptible to this virus?

There is persistent problem of measles outbreaks occurring in the U.S. Although some numbers of outbreaks may seam low, each outbreak of measles can infect several people because it is such an infectious disease. Some symptoms are visible approximately 10-12 days after infection (WHO, 2015). The symptoms range from fevers, dehydration, diarrhea, and rashes or even on rare occasions in the U.S., death (Watkins, 2014). Measles rarely kills in the U.S., but it has done so in 2003 and in one case in 2015 (CDC, 2015). In 2011, 17 measles breakouts and 222 measles cases occurred across 31 U.S. states and the main problem that stemmed from all of these is from either unvaccinated people got infected or from people who did

Johnathon (father) has been keeping Jathen (9 months). Johnathon abuses meth with a needle around Jathen daily. Cassey has been at Disney world, therefore Johnathon has been keeping Jathen; and he keeps him when Jathen is not at the babysitter. The reporter does not believe Cassey (mother) is aware of Johnathon abusing the drugs; Johnathon is hiding the drug abuse from Cassey and Martha (grandmother). Cassey works, and Johnathon does not. Jathen is always sick with a running nose, cough, etc. Cassey nor Johnathan put clothes son Jathen. Johnathon was seen with Jathen outside at 3 in the morning, and Jathen only had on a diaper; he did not even have on socks. Cassey and Johnathon both allow Jathen to wear only his diaper even away from the
