_____ (2023-02-04). AntiStrike Bill Step Toward Forced Labor In Britain? popularresistance.org The U.K. now has government ministers who revel in their contempt for human rights, including anti-slavery protections. | The home secretary, Suella Braverman, has repeatedly and groundlessly asserted that migrants are trying to "game the system" by claiming to have been trafficked. She is doing her best to reframe slavery as an immigration matter and NGOs fear that the government's protection responsibilities will be neglected in favour of establishing a hard-faced and xenophobic deportation policy. | This affront to national and international law has attracted criticism from the United States, the United Nation…

_____ (2023-02-04). Claims Of Mass Workers Shortages And Layoffs; Read Between The Lines. popularresistance.org In the midst of the economic recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic, in trying to justify the acceleration in global inflation — even before the war in Ukraine — the mainstream media was flooded with news about the so-called 'Great Resignation', blaming an apparent shortage of workers for widespread bottlenecks in the production of goods. | Today, the same media is talking about large-scale redundancies and layoffs by corporations. The explanations offered for this apparent trend could lead one to draw conclusions that barely scratch the surface in terms of understanding the true root causes of these iss…

_____ (2023-02-04). Writing About A Joy That Invades Jenin. popularresistance.org Israel calls its latest military campaign Operation Break the Wave, a lyrical description of a brutal reality. This year, 2023, will be the seventy-fifth year after the Nakba, the catastrophe of 1948 when Israeli troops illegally removed Palestinians from their homes and tried to erase Palestine from the map. Since then, Palestinians have resisted against all odds, despite Israel's formidable backing by the most powerful countries in the world, led by the United States. | Operation Break the Wave started in February 2022 with the assassination of three Palestinians in Nablus (Adham Mabrouka, Ashraf Mubaslat, and…

Chengjun Li, Huan Zhong, Yuwei Xie, Tian Bai, Bing Yan, Christian Sonne (2023-02-04). [Correspondence] Speed up multi-pathogen surveillance. thelancet.com Human health is facing escalating risks of circulating contagious pathogens and emerging zoonotic spillover due to global changes characterised by urbanisation and habitat fragmentation.1 The COVID-19 pandemic and 2022 mpox outbreaks have warned us of a possible harsh future, with further deterioration possible upon pathogens' co-transmission through shared pathways—eg, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 via respiration. This co-transmission will greatly increase the risk of co-infections and pandemics that intensify the burdens of public health infrastructure and expenses for governments.

Eva Peñas-LLedó, Adrián LLerena (2023-02-04). [Comment] Clinical use of pre-emptive pharmacogenetic programmes. thelancet.com The clinical implementation of pharmacogenetics (the study of how genetics influence individual variations in drug response) is a key factor in the development of programmes to prevent adverse drug reactions. Yet pharmacogenetics testing in clinics is still infrequent and is mainly reactive and focused on analysing a single drug—gene interaction. Evaluation of the implementation of pharmacogenetics in the real world is necessary. Only very few pilot studies have used a pharmacogenetics panel strategy to guide drug therapy, and mostly in patients aged over 65 years in specialised care settings in the USA.

These legendary words capture the state of mind of Blanche DuBois, the central character of Tennessee Williams' play A Streetcar Named Desire. Partly inspired by Williams' sister, whose mental ill health led her to be institutionalised and to have a lobotomy, Blanche is a character who is losing her battle with a life that has given her traumas and losses.

Rageshri Dhairyawan (2023-02-04). [Perspectives] A space to grow. thelancet.com A woman's right to choose what happens to her body is an issue that often makes headlines. In 2022, the US Supreme Court made the controversial decision to overturn Roe v Wade, the 1973 law which made access to safe abortion a constitutional right. Concerns were also raised by human rights groups in July, 2022, when the UK Government took out references to protect sexual and reproductive health and rights in a multinational statement about gender equality. In her debut novel, Diary of a Void, Japanese writer Emi Yagi tackles the issue of bodily autonomy from an unusual angle—that of a single woman choosing…

Richard Horton (2023-02-04). [Comment] Offline: Strange fruit. thelancet.com For a fleeting moment, guns re-entered the Oval Office. US President Joe Biden called for a federal ban on assault weapons. His plea, ignored, came after 11 people were killed in a Los Angeles ballroom dance studio and seven people were shot down in California's Half Moon Bay, near San Francisco. The Monterey Park killings were the deadliest since a mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, in May, 2022, which left 19 children and two teachers dead. The killers in America's latest attacks were, unusually, in their 60s and 70s.




Seye Abimbola (2023-02-04). [Perspectives] When dignity meets evidence. thelancet.com We are all entitled to dignity because we possess certain ethically important features. One of those human features is that we are knowers. We know things. We learn. We make sense of what we know. We interpret our realities and the systems within which we have our being. If this feature is not respected, one's dignity is violated. There is a kind of knowledge practice we may call dignity-based practice.

The Lancet (2023-02-04). [Editorial] Global cancer: overcoming the narrative of despondency. thelancet.com It is easy to become despondent about global cancer. Feb 4 marks World Cancer Day, and renewed calls to "close the cancer care gap". But the worldwide inequities in cancer care and control are deeply rooted. The facts are stark. Childhood cancer survival rates, for example, are more than 80% in high-income countries versus 20% in low-income countries. These disparities arise from huge differences across cancer prevention and care—in exposure to risk factors, in availability of public health programmes, and in access to diagnostics and treatments—compounded by growing cancer incidence.
