Hospital ActivitesSNIMS Observed World Breast feeding week-August 1-7th 2015
Quoting our beloved late Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam “If a country is to be
corruption free & become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are
three key societal members who can make a difference. They are Father,
Teacher and last but never the least Mother. “Mothers are always the
epitome of selfless love and the bonds they share with their children are
indeed the purest form of affection one can find and to Emphasize the
importance of mother saying goes “Ma at whose breast humanity is
nourished and whose lap civilizations are cradled”. Shows the importance
of Breast feeding in bui lding a healthy & strong nation.
On this World Breastfeeding Week, WABA calls for concerted global action
which aims at providing support to women in combining breastfeeding and
work. Even at the work places, we have seen more and more actions being
taken to set up breastfeeding workplaces.
The
theme “Breastfeeding & Work, let's make it work” stood as the main pillar
around which all these activities revolved” .
A week long activities were
executed by SNIMS at various venues for various sections of people.

The Southern Province of Gwadhong in China established a big
actory for producing sterile male mosquitoes. About one million sterilized
male mosquitoes are liberated from the factory per week. Aim is to reduce
multiplication of Aedes mosquitoes which spreads Dengue syndrome. The
Researchers claim that in the first week of release of sterile male mosquitoes
tself the number of Aedes mosquitoes have reduced by 90%.These sterile
mosquitoes were released to SHASI Island of Gwadhong Province where
Dengue Syndrome was spreading .
The mechanism is explained as these male sterile mosquitoes will mate with
emale Aedes mosquitoes in the area leading to mass decrease in production
of eggs of mosquitoes. The male mosquitoes are not blood – feeders; hence
here is no fear of spread of Dengue through this factory -made mosquitoes.ource- News in Malayala Manorama Daily Dated 04-08-2015
