It’s typically transmitted through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. Infected mosquitoes carry the Plasmodium parasite. When this mosquito bites you, the parasite is released into your bloodstream.*** Symptoms of Global Health Issue: *******The symptoms of malaria typically develop within 10 days to four weeks following the infection. In some cases, symptoms may not develop for several months. Some malarial parasites can enter the body but will be dormant for long periods of time. ************ What action is being taken to solve the issue?: What further action could be taken to solve the issue?: Do you think this issue is being adequately addressed?

Leo and Jason Z

Picture of chosen Global Health Issue:

Cause(s) of Global Health Issue:

EVD in humans is caused by four of five viruses of the genus Ebola virus. The four are Bundibugyo virus (BDBV), Sudan virus (SUDV), Taï Forest virus (TAFV) and one simply called Ebola virus (EBOV, formerly Zaire Ebola virus). EBOV, species Zaire Ebola virus, is the most dangerous of the known EVD-causing viruses, and is responsible for the largest number of outbreaks. The fifth virus, Reston virus (RESTV), is not thought to cause disease in humans, but has caused disease in other primates. All five viruses are closely related to Marburg viruses.

Symptoms of Global Health Issue:

Fever, sore throat, muscular pain, headaches, diarrhea, bleeding

What action is being taken to solve the issue?
- Vacine by Canada in Dec 2016
- Coagulation interferon : save the monkeys
-

What further action could be taken to solve the issue?

Do you think this issue is being adequately addressed? Why or why not?

Additional information about global health issue (facts, figures, history etc.):
- death rate : 88%
- Time length : 2-21 days
- 4 subtypes: EBO-Zaire,EBO-Sudan( death rate : 53.76),EBO-R( not dang to humen),EBO-CI(not dangerous to humen)

Do you think this issue is being adequately addressed? Why or why not?:

We don’t think so, because apparently people haven’t realize the disease they can get from obesity.

Additional information about global health issue (facts, figures, history etc.):

Worldwide obesity has nearly doubled since 1980.
In 2008, more than 1.4 billion adults, 20 and older, were overweight. Of these over 200 million men and nearly 300 million women were obese.
35% of adults aged 20 and over were overweight in 2008, and 11% were obese.
65% of the world’s population live in countries where overweight and obesity kills more people than underweight.
Overweight and obesity are the fifth leading risk for global deaths. At least 2.8 million adults die each year as a result of being overweight or obese.
44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the ischaemic heart disease burden and between 7% and 41% of certain cancer burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity.
More than 40 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2011.
Obesity is preventable.
