Social development helps narrowing down the disparities between urban and rural areas; and gaps amongst different regions. Credit: UNESCOBy Siddharth Chatterjee and Amakobe SandeBEIJING, Mar 1 2021 (IPS) Back in the 1990s, the discovery of antiretrovirals offered a ray of hope to save people’s lives from the HIV epidemic. Over this decade, people living with HIV benefited from the scientific advances and began to have longer, healthier and more productive lives. However, almost all the beneficiaries were from rich countries in the global north. As a result, about nine million people died by the year 2000 due to the inequ...

Fetal Tissue Remains Essential, Medical Researchers Say
BOSTON (AP) — The furor on Capitol Hill over Planned Parenthood has stoked a debate about the use of tissue from aborted fetuses in medical research, but U.S. scientists have been using such cells for decades to develop vaccines and seek treatments for a host of ailments, from vision loss and neurological disorders to cancer and AIDS.
Anti-abortion activists set off the uproar by releasing undercover videos of Planned Parenthood officials that raised questions of whether the organization was profiting from the sale of fetal tissue. Planned Parenthood has denied making any profit and said it charges fees solely to cover i...

Brigitte Askonas obituary
Immunologist whose work led to the development of many new vaccinesBrigitte Askonas, widely known as Ita, who has died aged 89, was one of the leading figures of modern immunology. She built on the work of the science's earlier pioneers, Louis Pasteur and Paul Ehrlich, by increasing understanding of the immune system as an intricate network of many cell types interacting and producing mediators to control their complex functions.The principal base for her work was the National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), north-west London, which she joined in 1952. She spent 36 years there, the last 12 of them as head of the imm...

Brilliant X-Rays Light Up Dangerous Viruses In Detailed 3D
Diamond Light Source, the UK's national synchrotron facility, is launching a new lab to study the detailed atomic and molecular structures of dangerous viruses and bacteria, including those that cause serious diseases such as AIDS, Hepatitis and some types of flu. Studying the detailed structures of pathogens in this way can help the development of new treatments and vaccines. Situated at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus near Oxford, Diamond is the first and only facility of its kind in Europe, and only one of two in the world...

Why the uptake of change and innovation is slow amongst the medical fraternity and how these can be overcome
The steps of progress in the medical field the last 50years is impressive: The 5-year cancer survival rates have risen from 30% to over 60% . Cardiovascular mortality between 1950 and 1990 has decreased by about the same number and HIV/AIDS has been transformed into a chronic disease . Vaccines have eradicated many once-fatal diseases, including smallpox. Life expectancy for a 45-year-old has increased 9years since 1950 .

Underrepresentation in HIV studies not due to conspiracy theories
