Can I Kiss If I Have Hpv Warts In The Tongue ?

http://migueljara.wordpress.com/ new blog on illegal incentives to prescribe drugs

Sometimes I reported the bribery and corruption doctors who practice for pharmaceutical companies to prescribe their brand preparations. But the problem of the incentives in prescribing also occurs with generic drugs (those produced after the expiry of the patent to a much lower price).
l E newspaper El Norte de Castilla published recently that the incentive of 2,600 euros that many primary care physicians have become the Junta de Castilla y León as a reward for prescribing generic drugs is completely illegal. The Superior Court of Justice in the region has issued a firm statement that emphasizes the freedom that should be free to any physician to prescribe drugs deemed appropriate for each patient without being under pressure or promises of rewards or incentives if opts for a particular type. Demand refers to incentives paid in 2006, which value the previous year, and in Palencia gained 77 doctors, 29.28% of those practicing in Primary, they perceived 195,000 euros (102 in 2007, who received 228,144 euros). In Castilla y León were 886 beneficiaries physicians who perceived EUR 2,303,600 (1,020 last year that claimed 2,255,446 euros). nothing too ago we read in the media that a prosecutor asks for five and half years imprisonment in the trial being held in the Audiencia Provincial de Cádiz, to a physician at the Hospital Puerta del Mar and an employee the pharmaceutical company Madaus, accused of defrauding the Andalusian Health Service (SAS) almost 9,000 euros by issuing fraudulent prescriptions .
As I explained a person who has exercised the medical visit for one of the largest laboratories in Europe (under investigation, by the way, the competition authorities of the European Union for trying to delay the introduction of generic market), "my former manager and his boss suggested 'without accepting no for an answer', all kinds of tricks to spend the advertising budget to go around the code of ethics. If the answer was 'no', you became persona non pleasant for them, the 'clan'. "

"Favors" Iberdrola Extremadura government

Last weekend, the English prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero announced he would undertake to Extremadura in the town of Alange his last election victory. The town of Alange was chosen because their ancestors were from there. But Alange and around the government of Extremadura, also of the PSOE, as president, promotes the construction of several power plants and a petrochemical refinery. For the appointment had been called a concentration of civic associations that are fighting for their land and that these projects of great environmental, economic and cultural development is not carried out. But the president misconstrued the plan and did not attend the appointment in the municipality of Alang in which hundreds of protesters waiting for him. If you chose to enjoy the tasty tubers Extremadura is enjoyed on a private estate.

not know what opinarían Zapatero's ancestors on the construction of a thermal power of Iberdrola in the municipality of Alang and a few more in those around him, although it is difficult to imagine. Since we assume that neither would strongly agree that the government of Extremadura is making efforts to promote private interests, those of Iberdrola in this case, at the expense of health, culture and environmental quality of Extremadura in the region.

Just last May 20 the High Court of Justice of Extremadura (TSJE) informed the Civic Platform Thermal Case No administrative action which is a Thermal faced not with the Board of Extremadura and Iberdrola.
This Platform citizen filed a complaint against the decision of the Minister of Agriculture and Environment of the Junta de Extremadura, José Luis Quintana Álvarez. He had resolved to remedy of appeal against the decision made Iberdrola's Director General for Environment, Guillermo Crespo, "through which it dismissed the Combined Cycle Power Plant in Alange to be an industrial activity industrial activity classified as unhealthy and harmful, the ability to harm human health or damage to the agricultural wealth, forestry, livestock or fisheries, resulting from the emission of pollutants into the air and water, and sited at a distance not exceeding 2,000 meters to count the population center nearest clustered, as provided in Article 4 of Regulation inconvenient, unhealthy, harmful and dangerous "feature from this partnership.

Quintana Alvarez accepted pathway An appeal to relocate the plant Iberdrola more than 2,000 feet away without listening Alange citizens who wanted to make allegations. "This measure was generated defenseless Thermal Platform to dispense No public inquiry despite the change in the location of the temperature. The Chief Executive to resolve the administrative appeal on behalf of Iberdrola violated the law and the right audience of those concerned citizens in general ", argue the neighbors.
The TSJE understood that varying the location of the project had planned from the beginning, when Iberdrola presented his initiative, as this will cause an environmental impact. The Court annulled its ruling, the decision of Minister of Agriculture and Environment Board Extremadura by admitting the relocation of the power plant Iberdrola.

How To Trace Short Circuit Mainboard

Concerns vaccine HPV Chips

Disease prevention is one of the veins that stand out in the health market. If the disease itself does not yield the expected economic beneficial for manufacturers of medicines, invent diseases. And if all this is not enough to "prevent" future eating disorders drug formulas "just in case." But some of these formulas are not studied what would be required and its harmful effects can generate real problems who have no problem.
Something similar happens with the vaccine against human papilloma virus, which has several months to apply in our country and arousing reactions from health professionals against him. Many of them see in this campaign a formula to open new markets.
Professionals in health are calling for a moratorium their inclusion in the immunization schedule in the Autonomous Communities. They claim that the trials have been short, the disease has a low incidence and that the doses are high cost (there is a manifest and collecting signatures ).
The human papilloma virus is transmitted contact (not sexual fluids) during sex. Condom use reduces sexual transmission, but not eliminate it. Some types of HPV are oncogenic capacity, and can cause cervical cancer. Because the virus is necessary but not sufficient, as the doctor says Juan Gervás.
poverty, smoking, and other unknown factors are key to disease development. Women are infected at the beginning of their sexual intercourse, but in most cases the infection is eliminated by natural means, spontaneously. Imported infection is maintained for more than two decades.
But fear is an incentive to trade remedies that will "cure." For example, in the Basque country, the Ministry of Health began in November 2007 to implement the HPV vaccine to girls 12 and 13. About 9,000 girls have received the dose. For now, only vaccine in the Basque Country, Navarra and La Rioja.
At a seminar on this vaccine, developed by the International Association of Students of Medicine in Spain, have expressed some critical issues with this drug, marketed by Merck as Gardasil. The cervical cancer is a disease that occurs among poor women in both industrialized countries as in those without. Disease is of the very few "poor" who are interested in the world or certain drug. The solution proposed is mainly applied to women who do not need it because your lifestyle away from the risk group. "At least since February 2007, Ministry of Health, regional councils, panels and several professional scientific organizations are promoting the immediate vaccination of all adolescents (and suggesting it could be beneficial to vaccinate their existing skills or have had sexual activity, against all scientific evidence), "said Galen argues.
As stated this professional health "hides the alarm about an unexpected use of an experimental vaccine, which is unknown to the mechanism of action." There are too rushed in its implementation. As in any preventive regimen, say many health professionals, it is logical that before distributing certain advantages were undeniable. Today, still, no doubt. The Washington Post has reported that the Medicines Agency of the United States, the FDA conducted a review of the results of vaccine studies revealed some concerns, according to documents released by the advisory committee on vaccines and Related Biological: The advantage offered by the vaccine protect against four types of virus could be offset by infections caused by many other types of HPV that the vaccine does not cover.
Currently, the vaccine is advertised in popular science magazines
covertly (without naming it directly) and alarming for parents. Are used, for example, statements such as "protecting the life of your daughter." The controversy is not limited to Spain, and some authors have stated that the decision of universal vaccination in other countries such as Canada, may be considered premature, given the many questions. But now businesses are global.
The vaccine will cost about $ 500 each person, which can cause a crisis in financing the health system as it is estimated in 30 years time it will take to begin to prevent this cancer from receiving the first dose.

spies citizens and companies controlled by governments

On Monday 28 April, journalist Ernesto Villegas I met in the Venezuelan state channel, Venezolana de Television (VTV), the program "En Confianza." The interview has had a major impact but that is not itself the subject of this communication. A cut of that gathering was broadcast later by another large televisions that country, Globovisión. I heard it through certain amenities offered by the Internet and I did not see it and certainly not warned me or told me to nothing.
The cut of this television is focused on providing intervention decontextualise my only part in which I talk about are giving impetus to pharmaceutical companies, and many other companies in other sectors, tracking technology objects and people or RFID radio frequencies (to which I devote a chapter in my book dealers health, so I asked about this issue the journalist).
Al Apparently, I had so Globovisión insulting, mocking, something like a paranoid. According account third Venezuelan media, Noticias24.com : "A video shown in the series of micros" You saw [Globovisión] seems to show a English journalist Miguel Jara as a lunatic or a fool by the usual tone of the buses, which indicate the gaffes and political rulers, gives the impression that its creators believe that Jara was speaking of lies, conspiracy theories or utter nonsense. "
As we explained this publication, which devotes extensive coverage to the issue of RFID: "Technology of the English speaking does exist, is already being used and refined to its mass, and should start to worry a lot to anyone who appreciates freedom and privacy.
(Jara has a blog where he discusses and
this and other subjects and where it gives opinions generally serious, well informed and documented).
The technology known as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is to install a small chip [for example, boxes of medicines such as Viagra, told] that is able to store all data types (Text, images), which in turn can be read by a device called a transponder, capable of receiving and reading the data of all nearby RFID chips. "
As shown in the video Globovisión apparently so "surprised" to those responsible for this program is that the company said that IBM has patented tracking people through RFID technology. The truth is that the May 3, 2001, IBM inventors processed in the U.S. Patent Application No. 20020165758, identification and tracking of persons using RFID-tagged items. This book narrates the Chips spies How large corporations plan to monitor each of its steps RFID by Katherine Albrecht and Liz McIntyre (Thomas Nelson, 2006). Its pages 33 to 35, above all, the authors of this indispensable book describes the intricacies of this patent application. Narrate the advantages as IBM has the technology to follow a person inside a store, find out what brings out other purchases and tastes or how it can be used for his age, race, gender and income level.
depth knowledge of the personal data of interest to large companies to streamline their methods to the maximum achieve higher sales and profits. For example, providing specific advertisements for each person at any time, anywhere.
What's more, as these researchers have in spies Chips: IBM leased computers strikeouts card technology to the Third Reich to Hitler could be traced to the Jews and their property. "
Under apparently Globovisión program falls under its own weight.

Frankensalada: corporate pressure-food trash

This week has been produced in the European Commission, the governing body central Europe, a very important vote for the future of GM food on the continent. Was at stake if approved the cultivation of two new types of maize have inserted a pesticide, such as those already grown in Spain. May seem anecdotal these decisions and debates but the biotech industry (which produces seeds and crops for our food lab) is "brewing" in supermarkets these products little by little so questioned. The Commission also decided on whether to cultivate a GM potato in Europe (in this case contains antibiotic resistance genes). The European Commission's initiative President Barroso, is forcing the debate under pressure from powerful lobbies or pressure groups-industrial-biotechnology. Political (many European politicians are betting on food waste in the European Union), with the help of certain companies, they want to deal with the final approval of GM crops and foods in the EU.
For now, this Frankensalada have to wait: Both corn and potato lab "have been sent back to the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA, for its acronym in English) which we interpret as a repudiation of this Agency "say the spokesmen for Friends of the Earth, an organization that has developed
an excellent report on the pressure pro GM food companies are taking place on European politicians to push for power laboratory.

should explain that the European institution responsible for ensuring the quality and safety of what we got to the mouth of citizens, according to the rules of operation of European administration, to authorize a crop or food is limited to reviewing the reports of the company interested in marketing it. No independent analysis performed. This explains why the Authority, the Commission's request, and thanks that the current European Commissioner for the Environment does not seem to work to promote food trasngénica, has received new reports of these varieties laboratory for review (which you will not be independent).

This performance-legal, I repeat, the EFSA is identical to the EMEA, the European Medicines Agency, which also performs independent surveys when requested pharmaceutical license to market a drug in Europe. EFSA is also formed mainly by molecular biologists. Other specialists would need to judge other aspects of cultivation and marketing of GM foods, as ecologists. Friends of the Earth warns that many employees of the Authority have conflicts of interest with biotech companies. Who is ruling Europe?

This document denounces the proximity between the EU's executive body, the European Commission and the biotech lobby, led by EuropaBio. Breakfasts "working" meetings or conferences in the industry have high positions in the Commission. The presence of industry in key advisory bodies and privileged access to information also notes the disturbing closeness between lobbyists and industry the Commission.

The result is a favorable policy framework, attempts to reduce controls on GM crops and foods, the EU's firm commitment for food biotechnology and millions of euros of public funds dedicated to funding research into the industry.
EuropaBio is one of the main lobby on food and crops with genetically modified organisms in the EU, and boasts his dealings with members of the European Commission. The campaigns of the lobby of agricultural biotechnology companies are led by Bayer CropScience, DuPont / Pioneer, Monsanto and Syngenta.
EuropaBio has also pressured European politicians to ensure that biotechnology applied to agriculture has become a hot topic on the agenda of EU research with an investment of 53 billion euros from public coffers.

The European Commission is promoting these connections between public and private sectors through specific technology platform on food and crops, and biofuels and food products, in the midst of global crisis of rising prices of staple foods (including reasons for biofuel crops.)

This is the transfer of public money to private economic interests. EuropaBio is, in his own words, "the voice of industry biotechnology in Europe. " Today even stronger with the money of European citizens.

Travel Europe Latin America invented diseases

Yes, many days and without updating the blog. A trip to Caracas (Venezuela) and Bogota (Colombia) has kept me busy for the past week. The reason was an invitation from the Ministry of Health vanezolano and PVDSA Department of Health, the largest company in Venezuela to participate in an event, the First International Symposium Drugs and Public Health that these two institutions have organized Caracas.
A total success, from my point of view. The hall of this company, which hosted the event, one-day, was full, about 450 people counting so low, most doctors, pharmacists, health professionals or senior officials of the health system. I was struck by the enormous interest the audience.
I'm used to public events in which I participate has a good level of knowledge of the topics covered in Venezuela but the warmth of the people who came to listen to lectures, his interest topics, participiación in the act, was special.
The Venezuelan government is making a major effort to boost public health system and its quality, and this meeting was a good example of this.
I had to be the one who opened the symposium, discussing the production of disease. Invited participants were luxury. Behind me spoke by videoconference Australian journalist Ray Moynihan, authentic pioneer and expert in spreading the phenomenon of inventing diseases. Nuria continued Homedes (director of essential drugs Bulletin, without whose existence could not have written my book dealers health , incidentally) Health activist Teresa Alves Action International (HAI) and very good speaker, Pearl Buschiazzo, especially Argentina in rational drug prescribing and access to them, and Claudia Vacca, a researcher at the Colombian civil organization Ifarma professor of Pharmacy at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia.
venzolana press has also shown great interest in the topics covered, I would emphasize, among others, a interview I did with Venezolana de Television primetime .

A trip as brief but very intense in there to thank the organizing effort realizado, su claridad de ideas y el despliegue de medios hecho para concretar en una jornada tantas voces hablando de asuntos tan necesarios para la ciudadanía, y que esta supo aprovechar.

Y aprovechando, valga la redundancia, que estaba en Venezuela y que en Colombia se había organizado un evento similar por las mismas fechas, Ifarma y la Universidad Nacional de Colombia me invitaron a dirigirme a Bogotá. En dicho espacio participamos Teresa Alves y yo, ella habló sobre agencias regulatorias y yo titulé mi intervención Morir en busca de salud , sobre la crisis de credibilidad de la industria farmacéutica, como me habían solicitado.
We presented the Dean of the Faculty of Economics and involved a public health professor and one of economics. Again I was surprised by the social commitment of these and the public, very large and mostly young, with the exception of two prominent lawyers who often represent the major pharmaceutical companies in Colombia.
The next day was very intense, the days start very soon in Latin America. Also in prime time I interviewed a well known doctor in Colombia, Carlos Francisco Fernandez, Medical Advisory Group Time, the most widespread in the country of Colombia. The interview to a TV Andean dealt with the manufacture of diseases because in the afternoon, the newspaper said, prepared a forum with the principal leaders of the sector in which Teresa Alves again and I went to speak to doctors, agency officials or spokespersons Colombian drug lab employers and pharmaceutical industry influence health and disease in our welfare.

Departed, publicly and privately with one of the heads of one of the patron saint of laboratories in Colombia, and even had time to learn that in that forum was present, but not even speaking I was invited to it, "someone who, after Following the event, made a call to one of the heads of one of the multinational pharmaceutical companies operating in Colombia. Informed about what we told Teresa and me. Mostly spent their time discussing what I had explained in my speech arousing their curiosity and your partner the seriousness of the facts I cited relating to certain laboratories and to speak publicly about it. He also spent time in various insults.

We came very pleased with our stay in Colombia and the agency worried that drug in that country has in its board representatives of the pharmaceutical industry conflict of interest that administration officials do not see health as such, although they show some interest in ethics and move towards independence.
