Sire and ma'am as it good to exploring the outdoors, feeling the warmth of the sun on the skin even as summer approaches. The sun's UV rays can be both a friend and a foe. They help us grow strong and healthy being a good source of vitamin D, but they can also cause damage and harm if we're not careful enough protecting our skin.

The dangers of UV radiation/sun's harsh rays on the skin ranges from premature aging to skin cancers.

This makes it very important you need to be UV safety aware, as it not just about your own protection but also about setting an example for others.

1. Wear protective clothing: Choose clothing with a UPF rating of 50+ to block 99% of UV radiation.

2. Use sunscreen: Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, and reapply every two hours.

3. Don a hat and sunglasses: Protect your face, neck, and eyes with a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses that block 99-100% of UVA and UVB rays.

4. Seek shade: Whenever possible, seek shade, especially during peak sun hours (10am-4pm).

By being mindful of UV radiation and taking preventive measures, we can enjoy the outdoors while keeping our skin healthy and safe.

Healthy you!

Despite decades of progress in treatment and prevention, over 1.3 million people were newly infected with HIV in 2024.
The high cost of existing treatments, such as lenacapavir ($42,250 annually), poses significant barriers. However, generic licensing models could reduce costs to around $40 per person per year, making future HIV vaccines more affordable globally.
Recent US aid suspensions have halted critical HIV vaccine trials and disrupted treatment access in affected regions, potentially leading to increased infections and deaths.
Vaccines remain the best hope for a sustainable, long-term solution to end the HIV epidemic.

Fortunately, there are still lots of ongoing search for a vaccine to prevent HIV infection.
Developing a safe and effective HIV vaccine requires overcoming complex scientific challenges, including the virus's high mutation rate and ability to evade immune responses.
Recent breakthroughs include the use of mRNA vaccine technology to train the immune system against HIV and the development of "mosaic" immunogen design to elicit broadly neutralizing antibodies.
Ongoing trials, such as HVTN 302 Phase I study, leverage mRNA technology adapted from COVID-19 research.
Recent studies show promise in administering antiretroviral therapy safely and effectively at home, improving patient satisfaction and adherence.
Machine learning workflows are being used to screen vaccine candidates, model immune responses, and manage trial data securely

Moreover, the need to ensuring equitable access to any future HIV vaccine is crucial, particularly for vulnerable populations disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS.

Mental Health and Families, we recognize that mental well-being doesn’t exist in isolation. Families and communities are the first responders to emotional struggles, and often the strongest support systems people have.

Early support at home can prevent mental health challenges from escalating.
Strong community ties reduce loneliness, isolation, and stress.
Caring relationships foster resilience, especially among youth, the elderly, and those with chronic conditions.

Empowered families can detect early signs of mental distress, offer emotional stability, and support healing. Open communication, active listening, and reduced stigma at home are crucial.
Schools, workplaces, religious groups, and neighborhood networks should provide inclusive, stigma-free spaces where individuals can seek help and connect with others.
Mental health care also means supporting those who support others—parents, grandparents, teachers, and community leaders all need time, tools, and resources to care for themselves.

As making inhaled treatments accessible for all is crucial for managing asthma effectively.
The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and the World Health Organization (WHO) are working together to improve access to inhaled medications, emphasizing their importance in controlling asthma symptoms and preventing attacks.
The Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS) has launched a campaign, "Increasing Access to Inhaled Medicines," to raise awareness and push for coordinated action to ensure availability of these treatments in low-resource settings.
The WHO has included asthma inhalers in its Model List of Essential Medicines and package of essential noncommunicable disease (NCD) interventions for primary health care .

Despite these efforts, access to inhaled treatments remains limited in many low- and middle-income countries, where 96% of global asthma deaths occur.
Patient factors, such as inhaler technique and throat deposition, can also affect treatment efficacy.

Nevertheless, governments, international agencies, industry, donors, and civil society must work together to ensure equitable access to effective, affordable inhaled medicines.
Frontline healthcare professionals play a critical role in improving outcomes for people with asthma by prescribing essential inhaled corticosteroid-containing medications and educating patients on proper inhaler use.
Strengthening primary healthcare systems and prioritizing effective asthma treatment within national health system planning and policy development are essential.

Hi there, do you still remember that handwashing with soap and water can prevent the spread of infections, including respiratory and diarrheal diseases.

And don't forget to always do it right as proper hand hygiene practices can reduce the transmission of diseases, protecting vulnerable populations like children, elderly, and those with compromised immune systems.This will contribute to healthier communities, reducing the burden on healthcare systems.

Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after using the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing.

Only use hand sanitizer when soap and water are not available.

Let us endeavor to pass this healthy habit to our children on proper hand hygiene practices to develop good habits from a young age.
Good hand hygiene practices will actually reduce absenteeism from important gathering due to illness.

Clean hands contribute to overall health and well-being, therefore do it and do it right.
