Nine years before winning the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Paul Berg, PhD, was in a quirky 13-minute film, “Protein Synthesis: An Epic on the Cellular Level,” explaining how a ribosome translates an mRNA strand into a chain of amino acids to make a protein

In India, the second most frequent cancer among women aged 15 to 44 years is cervical cancer. Most cervical cancers are caused by the human papillomavirus, and are sexually transmitted.

Adar Poonawalla, CEO of vaccine maker Serum Institute of India, announced the launch of the first home-made HPV vaccine. The launch took place in the presence of Home Minister Amit Shah, Adar Poonawalla, and Director of Government & Regulatory Affairs at Serum Institute of India, Prakash K Singh.
Despite being mostly avoidable, cervical cancer ranks as the second most common disease in India and is responsible for approximately one-fourth of all cervical cancer fatalities worldwide. Most cervical cancers are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), and the HPV vaccine can prevent most incidences of cervical cancer if given to girls or women before they are exposed to the virus.
In September 2022, SII announced the scientific completion of the cervical cancer vaccine.
Poonawalla, earlier at the World Economic Forum 2023 in Davos, said that the company spent about six to seven years to develop the HPV vaccine.
He also said that the HPV vaccine will be an affordable one and will be rolled out in high capacity to overcome existing market shortages.
According to the US National Institute of Health's (NIH's) National Cancer Institute, three vaccines that prevent infection with disease-causing HPV are currently being marketed in many countries throughout the world. These are Gardasil, Gardasil 9, and Cervarix.
Gardasil is a quadrivalent vaccine, Gardasil 9 is a nonavalent vaccine, and Cervarix is a bivalent vaccine. This means that Gardasil, Gardasil 9, and Cervarix contain four, nine, and two strains of HPV, respectively.
According to Mayo Clinic, males who are vaccinated against the type of HPV associated with cervical cancer may help protect females from the virus by possibly decreasing the risk of transmission.

खोइ कहाँ छ सरकार ? स्वास्थय मन्त्री र सरकार ?
म माथी कोशी अस्पतालका मेडिकल सुपरिटेन्डेन्ट लक्ष्मिनारायण यादबले हातपात गरेका छन् । आज बिहान एक १८दिनको शिशुलाई उपचारका लागी कोशि अस्ताल लग्यो , अस्पतालले मृत घोषणा गर्यो । आफन्तले दाहसंसकारका लागी नदि किनारा लगिरहदा बच्चा रुन थाल्यो । अहिले शिशुलाई गोल्डेन अस्पतालमा NICUसय मा उपचार भइरहेको छ । अस्पतालले बच्चा जिवितै रहेको भनेपछि , कोशीको लापार्वाही हद पार गर्यो । हामी लाइभ न्यूजको टिम कोशीको सुपरिटेन्डेन्ट डा. लक्ष्मी संग यस विषयमा आधिकारीक धारणा माग्दा , म केहि बोल्दिन ,तिमीलाई कोठाबाट बाहिर निकालिदिन्छु भने पछि , हामीले त्यस पछि उनिसंग सोध्ने प्रयास गर्यौं । उनले मलाई हात पात गर्दै बाहिर निकाले । तिमिलाई जे गर्नु छ गर भने । पछि माफि माग्छु भन्दै थिए । हामीले यस विषयमा थप बुझने प्रयास गरिरहँदा मृत धोषणा गर्ने स्वास्थ्यकर्मी उनको आफन्त रहेको छ । कहिले सम्म यस्तो ? जिवितै रहेको शिशुलाई कोशी अस्पतालले मृत घोषणा गरेको रिपोर्टिङ गर्दा म माथी भएको दुर्वयवाहर प्रति आपत्ती जनाउछु ।

ATR 72 Aircraft Crash in Pokhara, Nepal during clear daylight, wonderful weather.
My few observations:
1. It is an unacceptable crash, there should be an in-depth crash investigation and it should not be closed with blame on the pilot. Aircraft age in Nepal has always been a hot debate. If it is the carelessness of the Airline management, they should be brought in a court of law with murder charges.
2. Why the National Mourning holiday? Is that the only thing the government could do? Unnecessary public holidays largely affect the national economy.
3. Mourning for the death of 72 people in a single air crash is fairly genuine. Then what about the death of 3000 people (official WB data, underreported) due to road traffic crashes every year? Should we close our eyes on road traffic crashes?
4. Public transports are the most vulnerable in term of road traffic crashes in Nepal and they are the only mean of transportation for the voiceless population. Proper measures should be taken by the current government to control road traffic crashes in Nepal and make public transport safer.
