– Indian High CommissionIndia, like Guyana has a prevalence of dengue,Supply Authentic NFL Jerseys, according to a statement issued by India’s High Commission to Guyana.? Dengue is caused by the Aedes Aegyti mosquito which is the carrier of dengue germs. In countries like Guyana and India, which have regular rains and sometimes more than normal as have been evident this year, governmental authorities have gone to great lengths to fight the menace caused by the perceived threat, the statement added. But apart from disseminating information about the causes of dengue such as how it can be commonly prevented and surveys of areas reporting cases, resorting to measures such as fumigation are commonly undertaken.According to the statement, “certain parts of India have had more than their fair share of rains causing floods in some cities and states while some areas are facing droughts. The Capital of Delhi has experienced more than normal rainfall this year.”In fact it was outlined that the incidence of dengue in India, until the first week of this month, saw some 7,746 laboratory confirmed cases and 25 deaths India-wide. And not only is the laboratory-confirmed variant of the dengue virus, circulating in India, causing disease of a milder nature,Cheap Jerseys For Sale, but also the number of cases reported are fewer in comparison to the substantial number of cases reported from other South Asian countries.The Government of Asia, the statement added, has undertaken a series of measures that have had a direct impact on reducing the Aedes Aegyti mosquito, thereby bringing the situation under control. The health authorities in Delhi have since launched a massive drive in thisregard.The incidence of dengue in India, until the first week of this month, saw some 7,746 laboratory confirmed cases and 25 deaths India-wide.“Stagnant water pools everywhere are being sprayed with the larvicide,Cheap NFL Jerseys Supply, Temephos, to destroy the mosquito larva and attendant source reduction measures are being implemented to eradicate breeding.? Ward level task forces have been constituted that are to function with the active participation of the local community to ensure the implementation of dengue prevention measures.“All public and private buildings are being visited by municipal teams to ensure that all possible breeding places of the aegypti mosquito like water tanks, flower pots,NFL Jerseys 2018, coolers etc., are comprehensively free of the mosquitoes.”Meanwhile at the local level,Cheap Jerseys From China, Minister of Health, Dr Leslie Ramsammy,Wholesale NFL Jerseys China, revealed recently that while there has been an evident upsurge in the prevalence of dengue fever, there have been no reported deaths from the disease.According to a Ministry of Health advisory, persons are being urged to get rid of the breeding places of mosquitoes in and around their homes by covering all water tanks, barrels, drains, storage containers and garbage bins with tightly fitted covers or with wire mesh. In addition, flower pots, vases and other unused containers should be emptied and scrubbed at least once a week to destroy mosquito eggs. Eggs, the advisory noted, can hatch into larvae in three to six days.Speaking at a press conference, the Minister asserted that dengue is a reportable disease thus health care providers treating such cases are mandated to report same to the Health Ministry forthwith.“Not everybody with a fever is a dengue case…You could suspect them, but to include it in the statistics you will have to verify this first.” The minister revealed that the only way that dengue could be ascertained is to look at the antibodies, a process which is similar to testing for the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).Right now there are two tests – the Rapid and Aliza tests – that are being undertaken to detect the presence of dengue. The rapid test can be undertaken regionally, but according to the Minister, only the National Public Health Reference Laboratory can carry out the Aliza test.According to the Minister, the Ministry of Health continues to take on an approach of alerting the general populace of the possibilities and is ensuring that they are educated on precautionary measures.

-calls for disciplinary action to be shelved? ?The Youth Coalition for Transformation (YCT) is demanding that any process to discipline AssistantAssistant Commissioner of Police,Wholesale Jerseys China, David RamnarineCommissioner of Police, David Ramnarine,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, be halted and dismissed.The YCT, the youth arm of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), was responding to recent moves by Acting Commissioner,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Leroy Brumell, to commence disciplinary action against Ramnarine.This follows a request by Home Affairs Minister,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Clement Rohee, who had indicated that he had lost confidence in Ramnarine for breaching the Force’s Standing Order that prohibits officers from speaking publicly on sensitive police matters.Ramnarine had been outspoken on the controversial issue regarding the $90M that was allocated for the Guyana Police Force for elections and other duties.According to the YCT, what Assistant Commissioner Ramnarine did was to take a stand against “corruption” even though he is working in an organisation filled with corruption.“What he did was honourable in the sight of Guyanese who demand the truth and for that he is and will be respected,” the YCT told members of the media yesterday at a specially arranged press conference.The body said that for the Home Affairs Minister to recommend that Ramnarine be disciplined goes against everything that his office should represent-truth and justice.They stated that the present government has done nothing but continue its tyrannical hold on the people.“Today we,Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale, the members of the Youth Coalition for Transformation are demanding that any disciplinary action taken against the Assistant Commissioner be withdrawn.

We also have other panels on the second and ground floors, so I don’t know whether the fire could be electrical in

Shadow Home Affairs Minister Deborah Backer will today move a motion in the House to seek to question through counsel, Finance Minister Dr Ashni Singh, as it relates to the case he made out against her citing contempt.Backer in her Motion as is spelt out in the Order Paper for today’s sitting of the National Assembly, states that the rules of natural justice, dictate that an accused person be given an opportunity to question his or her accuser.Backer points out that the National Assembly as the highest court of Guyana is duty bound to adhere to the tenets of natural justice.According to Backer, after the Finance Minister successfully made out a prima facie case against her to determine whether she was in contempt of the House as it relates to statements she made about ranks of the Guyana Defence Force and torture,China Jerseys, she was informed by the clerk that in order to question Dr Singh she needed to file a motion.The matter arose from the debate of a motion at the October 15, 2009 sitting, tabled by Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee, which sought to deploy 90 ranks from the GDF to provide security support to the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), held in November.In her argument,Cheap Authentic Jerseys, Backer questioned whether Guyanese soldiers were going to Trinidad and Tobago “to torture people”.In agreeing to refer Backer to the Committee of Privileges on charges of contempt of the National Assembly,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, members of the Government’s side have expressed the view that her offensive statement casts aspersions on the thousands of hardworking young Guyanese men and women who serve with distinction in the Disciplined Forces and their families and, by extension,holesale NFL Jerseys, is an affront to the Guyanese people.When the National Assembly considered the motion to refer Backer to the Committee of Privileges, Speaker of the National Assembly Ralph Ramkarran ruled in favour of proceeding with a motion which signaled unanimous disapproval of the said statement purportedly made by Backer.At that time, the Speaker had ruled that a prima facie case had been established against Backer, clearing the way for the matter to be taken before the Committee of Privileges.Earlier last year,Wholesale Jerseys Cheap, 66 GDF ranks and 31 ranks from the GPF were deployed to Trinidad and Tobago for the Fifth Summit of The Americas.During this deployment Director of Security for the Summit,Cheap Adidas NHL Jerseys, Trinidadian Lt. Colonel Kenrick Maharaj was quoted as describing Guyana ’s support as invaluable.
