A word of caution for all of us.... as situation everywhere is worsening. Many are venturing to go out as many of us suffer from ‘Optimism Bias’.
We see people who are fed up of the lockdown and telling themselves that nothing will happen to them.
That's mainly because they haven't experienced any tragedy in their own family or circle.
This is *Optimism Bias* at play. It is the belief that each of us is more likely to experience good outcomes and less likely to experience bad outcomes. The key to optimism bias is that we disregard the reality of an overall situation because we think we are excluded from the potential negative effects. So, it's just a psychological trap, nothing else.
Remember a quote from Joseph Stalin,
A million deaths is a statistic. But one death is a tragedy.
It's like if we read the news that 10,000 people died, it doesn't affect us that way, as a single death of someone we know, does. Because when it's a single death, we get to attach the name, story and narrative of that person and feel emotional about it, but a million deaths is indifferent to our psyche. This is another psychological trap.
So, the bottom-line is, that no matter how social norms are being relaxed, stay alert, cautious and extra vigilant, as if it's still an EMERGENCY, because it still is! Stay safe and go outside only if it is must. And follow all the precautions without fail.
Take extreme Care.
STAY SAFE. STAY

आने वाले रमज़ान में diabetes के मरीजों के लिए कुछ ख़ास ध्यान देने योग्य बातें:-
1)सबसे पहले अपने डॉक्टर से सलाह लें कि उनके लिए रोज़े रखना सुरक्षित है कि नहीं।यदि डॉक्टर रोज़े न रखने की सलाह दे तो उसपर अमल करें।
2)यदि आप रोज़े रख रहे हैं तो कम से कम 3-4 बार अपनी blood sugar को glucometer से चेक करें, क्योंकि बदला हुआ खानपान एवं दिनचर्या की वजह से sugar में उतार चढ़ाव मुमकिन है।यदि sugar 70mg/dl से कम या 300 mg/dl से ज्यादा हो तो रोज़ा खत्म कर दे।
3)हाइपोग्लाइसीमिया के सामान्य लक्षणों को पहचानें जैसे शरीर कँपना, ह्रदय गति बढ़ जाना,पसीना आना, घबराहट, आँखों के सामने अँधेरा छाना,आलस, उबासी इत्यादि ।इन लक्षणों के आते ही अपना रोज़ा बाधित कर दे तथा फौरन कुछ खा लें।
4)अत्यधिक बढ़ी हुई sugar भी खतरनाक हो सकती है जिसमे रोज़ेदार hyperglycemic coma में भी जा सकता है।hyperglycemia के लक्षण जैसे मुँह सूखना, ज्यादा भूख प्यास लगना, थकान लगना, जी घबराना,सिर दर्द, मतली इत्यादि।
5)इफ्तार एवं सहरी के वक़्त whole grain floor(चोकर युक्त आटे) से बनी रोटी का इस्तेमाल करें।इसमें फाइबर की मात्रा ज्यादा होने से प्यास भी कम लगती है तथा शुगर भी कंट्रोल में रहती हैं।
6)खाने में प्रोटीन(बीन्स, दाल इत्यादि)तथा high fiber(रेशेदार फल/सब्ज़ी) का सेवन ज्यादा करें इससे भूख/प्यास कम लगेगी और ऊर्जा ज्यादा मिलेगी।
7)फ़ल/सब्ज़ी का सेवन ज्यादा करें तथा ज्यादा चीनी वाली चीजों के सेवन से बचें यथा कोल्ड ड्रिंक्स, शरबत, caffeinated ड्रिंक्स इनमे शुगर ज्यादा होने से dehydration ज्यादा होता है।
8)लस्सी, छाछ, निम्बू पानी का भरपूर सेवन करें
9)ख़ाली पेट अपनी diabetes की दवा कदापि न लें।
रोज़ा रहे या नहीं यह आपका अपना निर्णय है किंतु अपने डॉक्टर से सलाह अवश्य ले लें।

*_World Tuberculosis Day: Theme, Significance_*


👉 World Tuberculosis (TB) Day 2019 is observed on March 24. Every year, the day is meant to raise awareness about the devastating consequences of TB and how to end the global epidemic of this lung disease. Tuberculosis is known to be one of the most deadly diseases which claims around 4,500 lives every day, reports World Health Organization. Around 30,000 people tend to fall ill because of TB, which can be prevented and cured.

*What is World Tuberculosis Day?*

👉 Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) bacteria. The disease affects the lungs and can also infect other parts of the body. The first symptoms of TB include bad cough which lasts for 3 weeks or longer. It causes pain in the chest. One might also end up coughing blood in case of tuberculosis.

👉 The theme of World TB Day 2019 is "It's time", referring to the urgency to act on the commitments made by global leaders to build accountability regarding TB and increase access of prevention and treatment of TB. On World TB Day, the idea is to ensure in-depth research and development in the field of TB. The day aims at ending the stigma and discrimination regarding TB.

Why the World Sparrow Day is a sad reminder of something we all lost

https://www.dailyo.in/lifestyle/world-sparrow-day-fauna-urban-birds-disappear-architecture/story/1/2659.html

Today, sadness washes over me for the sparrows. I hope they will come back....

So many of these little, brave birds have disappeared in the humdrum and banality of urban life.
