World No Tobacco Day 2012


       World No Tobacco Day (WNTD) is commemorated on 31 May every year. The theme for this year’s (2012) WNTD is “Tobacco Industry Interference”.

World No Tobacco Day 2012
The campaign focuses on the need to expose and counter the tobacco industry's brazen and increasingly aggressive attempts to undermine the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC).

World No Tobacco Day 2012 will educate policy-makers and the general public about the tobacco industry's harmful tactics.

It will also be in keeping with the letter and the spirit of the WHO FCTC. The preamble of the treaty recognizes "the need to be alert to any efforts by the tobacco industry to undermine or subvert tobacco control efforts and the need to be informed of activities of the tobacco industry that have a negative impact on tobacco control efforts".

On World No Tobacco Day 2012, and throughout the rest of the year, WHO will urge countries to put the fight against tobacco industry interference at the heart of their efforts to control the global tobacco epidemic.

Such programs are consistent with the priority areas of Trinity Care Foundation initiatives for reducing health disparities.

Public Health Dentistry


HIV
Dental screening - CSR

Oral health concerns everyone. Almost everyone you know has had at least one oral disease, such as gum 
disease, infection or cancer at some point in his or her life. 

Dental public health is the science of preventing and controlling oral diseases and promoting oral health through organized community efforts. The field of dental public health primarily focuses on the community rather than the individual.


 Dental public health professionals work to promote oral health through education; research; dental epidemiology (prevention and control of a dental disease); policy, program, and service development and implementation. Dental public health professionals work with a variety of public and private professionals to create and implement oral health programs. 

For example, professionals in public health dentistry might work to ensure adequate fluoridation of a community’s water supply, develop a dental program for low-income or vulnerable populations such as the homeless and people with HIV , or educate children on the importance of proper dental care.

Stopping the Spread of Germs at Work..

illness
Spread of Germs
How Germs Spread ? 
Illnesses like the flu (influenza) and colds are caused by viruses that infect the nose, throat, and lungs. The flu and colds usually spread from person to person when an infected person coughs or sneezes.Spread of Germs..
  • How to Help Stop the Spread of Germs
Take care to:    
  • Cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough
  • Clean your hands often
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth
  • Stay home when you are sick and check with a health care provider when needed
  • Practice other good health habits.
  • Cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough
Cough or sneeze into a tissue and then throw it away. Cover your cough or sneeze if you do not have a tissue. Then, clean your hands, and do so every time you cough or sneeze.
  • Clean your hands often
When available, wash your hands -- with soap and warm water -- then rub your hands vigorously together and scrub all surfaces. Wash for 15 to 20 seconds. It is the soap combined with the scrubbing action that helps dislodge and remove germs.
When soap and water are not available, alcohol-based disposable hand wipes or gel sanitizers may be used. You can find them in most supermarkets and drugstores. If using a gel, rub the gel in your hands until they are dry. The gel doesn't need water to work; the alcohol in the gel kills germs that cause colds and the flu.

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth
Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches their eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs can live for a long time (some can live for 2 hours or more) on surfaces like doorknobs, desks, and tables.  Stay home when you are sick and check with a health care provider when needed.
When you are sick or have flu symptoms, stay home, get plenty of rest, and check with a health care provider as needed. Your employer may need a doctor’s note for an excused absence. Remember: Keeping your distance from others may protect them from getting sick. Common symptoms of the flu include:
  • fever (usually high)
  • headache
  • extreme tiredness
  • cough
  • sore throat
  • runny or stuffy nose
  • muscle aches, and
  • nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, (much more common among children than adults).

Tobacco's Deadly Seduction :- Women!

Awareness about ill effects of Tobacco

Tobacco's Deadly Seduction :- Women!

Tobacco use among women is rising. Without governments taking action to reduce smoking, the worldwide women's smoking rate is expected to rise to 20 percent by 2025 from a rate of 9.3 percent 2007.
  • Increases in tobacco use are the result of changes in the role and economic status of women as economies grow, as well as changes in social and cultural factors as nations modernize.
  • However, the direct, aggressive marketing of tobacco targeted to women is the driving factor in increased tobacco use by women seen around the world.
  • The tobacco industry targets women and girls with aggressive and seductive advertising that exploits ideas of independence, emancipation, sex appeal, slimness, glamour and beauty. Tobacco companies design products to specifically appeal to women, such as flavored cigarettes and fashionable packaging.
  • smoking
    Health Programs
  • Even in countries where tobacco use by women is low, women are disproportionately exposed to secondhand smoke in the home and workplaces. Of all deaths attributable to secondhand smoke, 64 percent occur among women.
  • Effective policies must be adopted to reduce tobacco use among women and protect women from secondhand smoke.
  • By curtailing tobacco marketing, adopting strong health pack warnings, increasing the price of tobacco products, expanding protection against secondhand smoke and carrying out effective public education campaigns, the predicted epidemic of tobacco-related illness and death among women around the world will be prevented.
