WORLD VOICE DAY

World Voice Day (WVD) is celebrated globally on April 16 every year. The day is observed to demonstrate the enormous importance of the voice in the daily lives of all people.

World Voice Day is a global annual event dedicated to recognizing the boundless limits of the human voice. The mission is to share the excitement of the voice phenomenon with people, scientists, and other funding bodies.

The day revolves around contributions made by head and neck surgeons as well as other health professionals who encourage the youth and elderly alike to assess their vocal health and take action to maintain good voice habits. Frequently, something as familiar as our voice becomes easily overlooked. World Voice Day reminds us to protect this vital tool we rely upon daily, so it remains with us throughout our lives.
Our voice is the conduit of the human experience. Each one of us communicates in unique ways, and our voice allows that expression to be heardThis observance is a chance to recognize the endless fields the human voice touches. Ranging from biology and physics, all the way to music and poetry, each field impacts each other. We celebrate our voices as something all cultures have in common, no matter our language

World Autism Day

Autism is also known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). People with autism have challenges with communication and social skills. They also have repetitive behaviour or restricted interests.

Causes of Autism
Autism is present throughout the person’s lifetime, and you may not know what caused it. Sometimes, autism runs in families.
Some possible causes include

genetic differences;
differences in brain development or in brain function; and
exposure to harmful materials or chemicals in the environment.

Signs and Symptoms of Autism
You can often observe signs and symptoms of autism in very young children. But sometimes they are not very noticeable, and they might not be recognized until school age or even adulthood. Signs and symptoms my change as the person gets older, but there will always be challenges with communication, social skills, and behaviours.

Communication
Communication includes understanding, talking, reading, and writing. A person with autism may have challenges

understanding and using gestures like pointing or waving;
understanding and using words;
following directions;
learning to read or write—some children with autism read early but do not understand what they read (called hyperlexia); and
having conversations.

A person with autism may

lose early words;
be hard to understand;
repeat words or phrases they just heard or that they heard days or weeks earlier (echolalia);
use a robotic or singsong speaking voice;
talk very little or not at all; and
use challenging behaviours instead of words or gestures to communicate what they want.

Social Skills
A person with autism may have challenges relating to others. It might seem like they are not interested in others or in making friends.

It may be hard for a person with autism to

share attention with someone else and focus on the same object or event;
join in play with others and share toys;
respond when others invite them to play or talk;
understand how others feel;
take turns in play or in conversation; and
make and keep friends.

Behaviours
A person with autism may

repeat certain behaviours including hand or body movements;
cry, laugh, or become angry for unknown reasons;
have trouble changing from one activity to the next;
get upset by certain sounds, smells, or textures;
like only a few foods;
choose foods based on look or texture; and
be interested in only a few objects or topics.

Treatments for People With Autism
There is no known cure for autism. For young children with autism, it is best to get help early. Ask about local early intervention and preschool programs. Adolescents and adults with autism also benefit from treatment to help them communicate better in school, at work, and in the community.

A variety of specialists might work with a person with autism throughout their lifetime. These can include SLPs, audiologists, psychologists, special educators, vocational counselors, and job coaches. (ASHA)

Down syndrome occurs when an individual has an extra partial (or whole) copy of chromosome 21.

It exists in all regions across the globe and commonly results in variable effects on learning styles, physical characteristics and health. (United Nations)

Symptoms of Down syndrome

"Individual Down syndrome symptoms can range from mild to severe intellectual and developmental impairments, with some people arriving in normal health and others presenting with catastrophic health problems such as heart defects,. (Hindustan Times)

Diagnosis

Down syndrome is commonly discovered during the course of a pregnancy. If not detected, the infant's appearance can usually be used to diagnose the condition.

Treatment

"Although there is no specific treatment for Down syndrome, there are a number of therapies that can help with the condition's problems. As a result, screening children for these disorders at frequent intervals during their childhood is crucial,". (Hindustan Times)

Rare Disease Day; (RDD)

An average of 1 in 20 people live with a rare disease at least once in their lifetime, few of which see any sign of a cure. The goal of Rare Disease Day is to improve knowledge amongst the general public of rare diseases while encouraging researchers and decision makers to address the needs of those living with rare diseases.
Founded by the European Organization for Rare Diseases, the first Rare Disease Day was celebrated in 2008 on February 29 . A “rare” date that happens only once every four years. Since then, Rare Disease Day has taken place on the last day of February, a month known for having a rare number of days.
The day is held to raise awareness for rare diseases and improve access to treatment and medical representation for individuals with rare diseases and their families.
Treatment for many rare diseases is insufficient, as are the social networks to support individuals with rare diseases and their families. (national today)
