    Vaccinations are without a dispute one of modern medicine's greatest triumphs, and there is optimism that they may provide a cure to the current COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, the anti-vaccination campaign is on the increase, disseminating false information about vaccine safety on the internet and leading to a significant drop in immunization rates throughout the world. Throughout this historical moment, it is critical to comprehend the causes for vaccine apprehension and to devise effective methods to counter anti-vaccination proponents' propaganda. As a result, we looked at how anti-vaccination activists behaved on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Quora, Instagram, and YouTube. Anti-vaccination advocates, in comparison to provaccination supporters, share conspiracy ideas and utilize emotive language, according to one study. We show that anti-vaccination activists are more active on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Quora, Instagram, and YouTube, and that they distribute their material with the help of powerful influencers. Based on the contents created by a small percentage of profiles, we show that the movement's success is dependent on a strong feeling of community, with the community at large functioning as a sounding board for anti-vaccination speech to spread online. Based on these findings, we support measures that attempt to stop the spread of misleading vaccine information by focusing on the anti-vaccination movement. We also offer ways to enhance health organization's communication strategies and establish a community of motivated influencers that promote the transmission of scientific discoveries, particularly concerns connected to vaccinations and their safety, based on our findings.

    A growing number of organisations, including medical associations, recommend that research subjects should be given the option of being informed about the general outcome and results of the study. We recently completed a study involving nine serosurveys from 2018 to 2020 in five districts of India among three age groups (children 9 months to < 5 years; 5 to < 15 years of age, and women 15 to < 50 years of age before and after the measles and rubella (MR) vaccination campaigns). In Palghar district of Maharashtra all individuals in 30 selected clusters were enumerated, and 13 individuals per age group were randomly sampled. We established the procedures to return the results to the respondents for each stage of the survey. Of the 1,166 individuals selected for the measles and rubella serosurvey, 971 (83%) agreed to participate and were enrolled. Participants were informed that they will only be contacted if they test seronegative for measles and/or rubella antibodies. Overal...

    The COVID-19 epidemic has had a major impact on human lives as well as the global financial system. The global spread of a novel coronavirus turned into a pandemic, and its impact on humanity is currently the talk of the town. This virus has afflicted every country on the planet, and the nationwide lockdown has had a short-term worldwide environmental impact. The exponential rise in COVID-19 transmission and mortality rates has brought the entire planet to a stop as a result of its devastating implications. The country's social and economic development were severely harmed as a result of the nationwide lockdown. However, it has some good environmental effects, particularly in terms of air quality, since particulate matter (PM), NO2, and CO concentrations in major cities throughout the world are reduced. In India, PM10, PM2.5, NO2, SO2, CO, O3, and NH3 concentrations were reduced by 51.84 percent, 53.11 percent, 52.68 percent, 17.97 percent, 30.35 percent, 0.78 percent, and 12.33...

    Tuberculosis (TB) has long afflicted communities and nations. People have suffered for generations as a result of tuberculosis, and even today, when newer methods of diagnosing and treating the disease have made it curable, people continue to suffer and dying from it and malnutrition, overcrowding, air pollution, poor living conditions, and other factors that contribute to the TB burden. Financial decentralisation, as well as increased community participation, are required to achieve TB control in India. Furthermore, RNTCP should be effectively integrated with other related programmes i.e., the NACP to address co-infection (TB-HIV) and the National Rural Health Mission. Emerging problems such as childhood tuberculosis, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis should be addressed. Financial decentralisation, as well as increased community participation, are required to achieve TB control in India. Furthermore, RNTCP should be effectively integrated with ...

    Health entitlements and wisdom pointed to expeditious identification and reverent control of diarrheal had been a crucial part of the CSSM. The health Evidence TM tool was used to 1) find and obtain relevant research evidence; 2) assess the methodological quality of the research evidence, and 3) synthesize the evidence. Individuals must make certain that their occupations do not create any health issues. All people value their jobs since they provide them with a source of money. Some people may not be content, yet they must work in order to make a living.

    We conclude our review that the spread of the dengue outbreak was facilitated by the community's ignorance and sloth, as well as government authorities. People, religious scholars, leaders, and government organisations, on the other hand, were not organised to participate in dengue prevention and eradication, which raised the risk of infection in the community. For the implementation of preventative policies, the report advises organising local communities and activating local leadership with the active engagement of government and non-government groups.

    Children in India face health issues and are afflicted by illnesses and disorders. There are a variety of factors that contribute to these issues. It is the parents' primary obligation to ensure that their children receive good nourishment and education and that the home environment is created in such a way that it promotes the health and well-being of the children in an acceptable manner. The causes of health problems, the prevalence of childhood health problems, child health interventions, and strategies to avoid health problems among children are the key topics covered in this study paper. It is critical that individuals from deprived, marginalized, and socioeconomically backward areas of society raise awareness about these initiatives. Individuals of all classifications, backgrounds, and occupations must be aware of health issues affecting children and how to address them.

    Childbirth is the most decisive event in a women’s life. It is the most wonderful and joyful journey which a women experiences after childbirth. Mothers go through a lot of physiological and psychological changes after giving birth. After pains plagued the majority of the postpartum ladies. As a result, it was determined that reducing the aftereffects and hastening the uterine involution process were critical. In India, after pains are still a big problem for moms after delivery. Nurses have an important role in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of patients. Nursing staff should educate mothers in order to improve their quality of life. The technique was found to be quite successful in preventing maternal discomfort and uterine involution.
