Recent years have seen unprecedented outbreaks of avian influenza A viruses. In particular, highly pathogenic H5N1 viruses have not only resulted in widespread outbreaks in domestic poultry, but have been transmitted to humans resulting in numerous fatalities. The rapid expansion in their geographic distribution and the possibility that these viruses could acquire the ability to spread from person to person raise the risk that such a virus could cause a global pandemic with high morbidity and mortality. An effective influenza vaccine represents the best approach to prevent and control such an emerging pandemic. However, current influenza vaccines are directed at existing seasonal influenza viruses, which have limited antigenic relationships to the highly pathogenic H5N1 strains. Concerns about pandemic preparedness have greatly stimulated research activities to develop effective vaccines for pandemic influenza viruses, and to overcome the limitations inherent in current approaches to vaccine production and distribution. These limitations include the use of embryonated chicken eggs as the substrate for vaccine production; which is time-consuming and could involve potential biohazards in growth of new virus strains. Other limitations include the requirement that the current inactivated influenza vaccines be administered using needles and syringes, requiring trained personnel, which could be a bottleneck when attempting to vaccinate large populations in mass campaigns. In addition, the current inactivated vaccines which are delivered by injection elicit limited protective immunity in the upper respiratory tract where the infection process is initiated. Most of these limitations of the current vaccines are being addressed by research on novel approaches to vaccine development and delivery that are described in many of the chapters in this volume.

This book examines the global HIV/AIDS pandemic from a multidisciplinary perspective, analyzing its economic impact, the reasons behind the political response to the pandemic, international laws relating to public health and patents and mechanisms for financing global and national responses. The authors paint a global picture of the HIV/AIDS pandemic one issue, one country and one region at a time and show why prevention, treatment and human rights protection must each form part of a comprehensive HIV/AIDS strategy. The book analyzes the successes and failures of national governments, international organizations and the private sector in fighting the HIV/AIDS pandemic and recommends changes to our international economic, financial, legal and political institutions. This book highlights the lessons the world has to learn from our experience with HIV/AIDS in order to improve the way we address global diseases.

Wat na corona? Willen we echt terug naar het oude 'normaal' van besparen in de sociale zekerheid, de zorg en het onderwijs, en fiscaal pamperen van superrijken? Naar een wereld waar de mensen die de samenleving rechthouden géén helden zijn?In deze brief aan Vlaanderen houdt filosoof Bleri Lleshi een krachtig en inspirerend pleidooi om het roer om te gooien. Want corona heeft een aantal problemen op scherp gezet. Maar de crisis maakt ook duidelijk dat de mens supersociaal, solidair en zorgzaam is. Voor Bleri Lleshi is dat geen verrassing. Al meer dan tien jaar doorkruist hij Vlaanderen om te spreken over hoop en liefde. Hij kent de verhalen van de mensen die het gehad hebben met de richting waarin onze samenleving aan het evolueren was, van de 94-jarige die vluchtelingen Nederlands leert tot de BV's op de barricades voor het klimaat en het middenveld en de cultuursector met hun protest tegen de kaalslag van de Vlaamse regering. We staan op een kruispunt. Ofwel misbruiken machthebbers deze crisis. Ofwel grijpen wij dit moment om te kiezen voor positieve verandering: naar een sociale, duurzame en rechtvaardige samenleving.(https://www.epo.be/nl/sociaal-politiek/4594-wat-na-corona-9789462672345.html)

'Doen we als mainstream media onze job wel goed genoeg?' Het is een vraag die VRT-onderzoeksjournalist Luc Pauwels al jaren bezig houdt. Want hij ziet te veel verontrustende alarmsignalen. Een themadossier in 'De Journalist' in februari 2021 gaf aan dat de vertrouwenscijfers in de media tussen 2016 en 2020 van 59% naar 51% gedaald waren in Vlaanderen. Dat is niet bijster veel. Uit een eerdere enquête die naar het vertrouwen peilde in 32 beroepen, bleek dat brandweermannen, verplegers en artsen erg hoog scoorden. In België stonden journalisten op vier na laatste.Van desinformatie, fake news was toen amper sprake. Dat veranderde na de verkiezing van Donald Trump: die gooide het politieke discours op een ongeziene manier om. De toon werd hard en brutaal. De uitbarsting van fake news en desinformatie vergiftigt de hele samenleving en is nog lang niet voorbij. Dit moet die mainstream media doen nadenken over hun houding en positie. Lopen ze zelf zo'n vlekkeloos parcours? De antwoorden van Pauwels zijn bij momenten ontluisterend.https://www.lannoo.be/nl/file/9789401484381pdf
