قبعات التباعد"... أداة مميزة فُرضت على طلاّب المدارس الصينيّة
"ق
تمكّنت إجراءات الحكومة الصينية من ضبط انتشار فيروس "كوفيد-19" إلى حد كبير، إذ أصبحت أعداد المصابين الجدد بالفيروس الذي بدأ مسيرته من البلاد، ضئيلة جداً نسبة إلى ما كان عليه الحال في بداية الأمر، ما مكّن الحكومة من إعادة الحياة الطبيعية تدريجياً، بما في ذلك عودة الدراسة ولو بشكل جزئي، وبشروط معينة، والتي منها ارتداء الطلاب لما يسمى بـ "قبعات التباعد".
وتناقلت وسائل الإعلام المحلية والعالمية فيدوات صُوّرت من داخل صفوف المدارس الابتدائية، في بعض المدارس الصينية، شوهد فيها الطلاب، وهم يرتدون قبعات غريبة، مزودة بشرائط جانبية، وظيفتها التنبيه بضرورة تباعد الطلبة عن بعضهم البعض، حيث قالت التقارير إنّ ارتداء هذا النوع من القبعات أصبح أمراً مفروضاً في معظم تلك المدراس.
ويصل طول الزوائد الموجودة على أطرف تلك القبعات إلى نحو متر، حيث كانت إحدى المدارس الابتدائية في مدينة هانغزو التابعة لمقاطعة زيجيانغ شرقي الصين، اقترحت هذه الفكرة، وطبّقتها في 26 من الشهر الجاري، مع بداية عودة طلابها إلى مقاعدهم الدراسية، الأمر الذي اقتدت به المدارس الأخرى لما فيه من إيجابيات في ما يخص استمرار السيطرة على انتشار "كورونا المستجد

This statment cam after President Donald Trump suggested the possibility of an "injection" of disinfectant into a person infected with the coronavirus as a deterrent to the virus during his daily briefing Thursday.
الرئيس ترامب يقترح حقن مرضى كورونا بالمطهرات للقضاء على الفيروس , خلال مؤتمره الصحفى فى البيت الابيض الامر الذى اذى الى تدخل منظمة الصحة العالمية بالتعليق على اقتراحه وهو تعريض مريض كورونا للخطر اذا تم تنفيد هذا الاقتراح , لا يجوز حقن اى مريض بالمطهرات لانها سموم تمثل خطرا على حياة الانسان.
شهر رمضان ( أوري ازوا
أمر الله -تعالى- المسلمين بصيام شهر رمضان المبارك، وجعله ركناً من أركان الإسلام الخمسة، والصيام في الاصطلاح الشرعي هو إمساكٌ معينٌ، في زمنٍ معينٍ، من أشياءٍ معينةٍ، بشروطٍ معينةٍ، والصيام واجبٌ في حقّ المسلم العاقل، غير المرأة الحائض والنفساء، ويبدأ الصيام من طلوع الفجر الثاني، إلى دخول وقت صلاة المغرب، فيُمسك المسلم طيلة ذلك الوقت عن مبطلات الصيام؛ أيّ عن المفطرات، وقد شُرع صيام شهر رمضان المبارك، في شهر شعبان من السنة الثانية للهجرة، فصام النبي -صلّى الله عليه وسلّم- بذلك تسعة رمضاناتٍ في حياته، ويستدلّ العلماء على وجوب صيام رمضان بأدلةٍ عديدةٍ، منها قول الله تعالى: (يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ)، ومنها كذلك قول النبي صلّى الله عليه وسلّم: (بُنِيَ الإسلامُ على خَمْسٍ، شهادةِ أن لا إلهَ إلا اللهُ، وأنَّ محمداُ عبدُهُ ورسولُهُ، وإقامِ الصلاةِ، وإيتَاءِ الزكاةِ، وحجِّ البيتِ، وصومِ رمضانَ)،كما أجمعت الأمّة على وجوب صيام رمضان على المسلمين، وكُفْر من أنكر ذلك.
Ramadan, which begins on April 23 in most countries this year, with the first day of fasting on April 24, is the holiest month in the Islamic calendar.
It involves abstaining from eating, drinking, smoking and sexual relations from dawn to sunset, in the hopes that it will lead to greater "taqwa", or consciousness of God.
Muslims were commanded to fast during Ramadan more than 1,400 years ago, the ancient Greeks recommended fasting to heal the body, and today some scientists are advocating a modified fast for its mental and physical benefits.
We ask God to accept our fasting and grant us the ability to maximise our time in Ramadan. Ameen
COVID-19: Rwanda To Test Locally Made Ventilator/ انتاج اجهزة تنفس اصطناعية فى روندا
Rwanda is testing a locally made ventilator to use in the treatment of New Coronavirus patients which was developed by a team of engineers at the Integrated Polytechnic Regional Centre (IPRC) in what could be a major breakthrough in making of the much needed device in the treatment of COVID-19.
Though the ventilator, which helps COVID-19 patients in critical condition to breathe well when their lungs are struggling, is yet to be approved by the Food and Drug Authority (FDA), experts have hailed the innovation by the team at the Kigali Campus of the polytechnic.
In the other hand , Rwandans are advised to wear face masks when they happen to go in public and while in multi-family compounds. Local factories are producing them massively.

Libya: Historic discrimination threatens right to health of minorities in the south amid COVID-19
The Libyan authorities and militias in control of southern cities and towns and international donors must ensure that those most marginalized are factored into their emergency public health response to the spread of COVID-19, Amnesty International said today.
Fears of the spread of COVID-19 in southern Libya expose the vulnerable circumstances of minority communities who have long struggled to enjoy equal access to health care
Heba Morayef
Libya’s public health system has been undermined by years of armed conflict and insecurity including attacks on medical facilities, the exodus of qualified medical personnel and frequent militia interference in the provision of medical services. In addition to these general risks, pre-existing discrimination against ethnic minority groups such as the Tabu and Tuareg create additional barriers to their access to healthcare.
“Fears of the spread of COVID-19 in southern Libya expose the vulnerable circumstances of minority communities who have long struggled to enjoy equal access to health care. Owing to years of armed conflict, insecurity and neglect, the Libyan south as a whole is woefully unprepared for the pandemic, as it lacks adequate testing facilities, protective equipment and qualified health workers. The situation of minorities is of particular concern, as they face additional hurdles in accessing the two largest and best equipped hospitals in the area.” Said Diana Eltahawy, MENA Deputy Regional Director.
“We call on the Libyan authorities and militias in effective control to ensure that all people have equal access to health care regardless of race, nationality or ethnic origin. All parties to the conflict are obliged, under international humanitarian law, to treat the sick and wounded, without discrimination or distinction other than on medical grounds.”
The organization spoke to medical professionals, activists and journalists across the Libyan south.
Since Libya reported its first COVID-19 case on 24 March, the figures have grown to 51 confirmed cases and one death.
Fears of violence limit access to healthcare
Many cities and towns in the south of Libya have been historically segregated on the basis of tribal affiliation and ethnicity. The sporadic flaring of hostilities between different tribal militia groups hinders the movement of people in this area, affecting people’s access to health care when hospitals are in areas controlled by rival groups.

For example, in Sabha, the largest city in southwestern Libya, Tabu residents told Amnesty International they avoid the main hospital, which is in a part of the city controlled predominantly by the rival Arab Awlad Sliman tribe. Credible sources told Amnesty International of incidents reported in previous years of Tabu men including patients at Sabha’s main hospital facing physical attacks, abductions and even killings. Sabha residents explained that fear of violence drives Tabu men in particular to go to a smaller underequipped hospital in Murzuq, a predominantly Tabu town 180 kms away, for treatment, instead of going to Sabha’s main hospital.
In Murzuq, two medical sources told Amnesty International that only four ventilators were available, with no one trained to use them, as well as a shortage of personal protective medical gear for health workers.
In the southeastern city of Kufra the main medical facilities, themselves inadequately equipped to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, are in an area controlled by the Arab Zwai tribe. The clinics controlled by the Tabu are more poorly equipped and unprepared to deal with the virus outbreak. Tabu residents in the city told Amnesty International that they refrained from going to the main medical facilities located in areas controlled by the Zwai tribe as they fear violence and instead have to rely on a smaller clinic in the Tabu-controlled area of the city.
Lack of documentation
Some members of the Tabu and Touareg communities face additional barriers in accessing health care as they do not possess identity documents or family identity booklets to prove Libyan citizenship, necessary to access the free public health system. The lack of documentation has also had serious economic consequences, and many cannot afford to privately pay for medical expenses. Neither the internationally recognized Government of National Accord based in Tripoli, nor the self-styled Libyan National Army in control of eastern Libya and parts of the south have announced any measures to guarantee access to the public health care system for members of the Touareg and Tabu communities without identity documents.

Heba Morayef
Members of both communities are also potentially more vulnerable to adverse impacts in case there is an outbreak of COVID-19, as they live in impoverished and densely populated neighborhoods such as Taouiri in Sabha, where social distancing is essentially impossible.
Furthermore, Amnesty International calls upon the international community and donors providing assistance for Libyan public health services to take into account the specific obstacles faced by the Tabu and Tuareg communities, including those who lack Libyan identity documents, in accessing medical services in the south.
Background
The Tabu are an ethnic minority who live in areas of Sudan, Niger, Chad and the south of Libya. Some Tabu people reported being denied documentation proving Libyan citizenship during Mu’ammar al-Gaddafi’s rule and have also been subjected to forced evictions, arbitrary arrest and detentions. Since 2012, localized armed conflicts have erupted between Tabus and Arab tribes in many southern cities.
The Tuareg are an ethnic minority group living in the southwest of Libya, as well as Mali, Niger, Chad and Algeria. Some report facing obstacles in proving Libyan citizenship, which has created barriers for them in accessing education, health and jobs.
