salaamz akhiyaarta-I need help with these words or if one could suggest a somali-english medical dictionary that I can keep as a reference;- Infectious- Epidemic/pandemic- AIDS/HIV-(*is there a specific word/term for this disease? many somalis refer to it as it is) Prevalence- Risk- Susceptible- Immune/Immunity- Peri-natal(as in Perinatal care)- *NB: Most somalis connotate QAXO to all phlegm (or lung) related diseases..so my Q is-is QAXO=TB or it can be also Bronchitis? others: Employment- Generation- Inspire/Inspiring- Fitness/exercise-(Iam not sure if jirdhis is a more preffered word-correct me plz!)

thx for the pointers MR. Sophist-JZK

VIKING-because the parasite attacks the RBC (red blood cells) and results in sickling of the cells, and consequent damage to the cell membrane (where voltage gated ion gates- potassium and sodium that keep intracellular/extracellular fluids of the cell in balance are located) makes way for the leakage of potassium ions (create an imbalance of the ion balance of the cell-hence LETHAL to the parasite’s existence)---therefore it seems PLAUSIBLE to conclude that sickle cell trait has some protection against MALARIA. Hence, those with the sickle cell allele (or trait) – HETEROZYGOUS ADVANTAGE -have up to 70-80% protection against malaria (a cohort study done in Asembo bay in Kenya). On the other hand (my suspicions precisely) -individuals with the sickle-cell trait indeed have some protection from the malignant parasite (Plasmodium). However, the complications from the inheriting the trait far outweighs the protection. Some common complication are Hematuria (blood in urine), and some slightly increased kidney infections (bleeding from the kidneys is especially seen in patients with severe sickle cell complications). Some potential hazards also for individuals that are in the air force and those who undertake super strenuous activities. almost forgot to add that if both couple(or two parents to be are carrying the traits) then they may have an offspring with the sickle cell disease-and such as above complications might be be present and even turn severe. cheers!

VAN..good topic..if you had checked earlier bout one of the topics that I posted(Medical/Pubh interventions-in the camel milk section) perhaps you might find some mind-stimulating issues that relate to INFECTIOUS DISEASES. Anywayz, back to your Q..about vaccines..and lipitor. Developed countries like USA and western countries do have their own drug companies but many of them(much or less) are regualated by the FDA(Food and Drug Administration)..any drug put out there (or commercials for that matter) that relate to public health/medical issue have to have truth in their statements-when it comes to health effects. On the other hand, MULTI-COOPERATION DRUG COMPANIES like GLAXO..etc..have something called PATENT laws..and this laws regulate how a drug/vaccine operates in the public sphere(whether its when to produce/publicly make available of the drug, which population it applies to, where to use them, dosage, toxicity etc). *in a nut-shell-there are some countries that have taken the initiative in making their own GENERIC drugs for emerging infectious diseases(like AIDS-in BRAZIL and some countries in LATIN AMERICA) however, the question is then: How effective are such vaccines produced generically in comparison to those manufactured or distributed by multi-national drug companies? (are they scientifically sound to effectively combact a malignant disease such as HIV/AIDS?) Now understand that this multi-cooperation drug companies have the resources, finance, scientific experts and nevertheless political and economic backings/support from various federal/governments -unlike some generic drug manufacturing companies. *I hope I answered some of your Q's.

My fellow nomads you make something straightforward and solely specific as knotty and baffled as your modern psyche. I am surprised what are you guyz aiming to proof here (yes, bare with me I can make out that many of you are of course well-versed in the different Somali-related dialects -but that is absolutely not the subject in discussion). Pinch me if I am amiss fellaz-the Q is what languages do you speak, humbly list them or display them however you like, but conversing in fine points about [especially]the stereotypes existent in the languages and Somali culture is absolutely superfluous (I assume) of again the question at hand. Ok guyz, I know I have ridiculed you enough-and after reading you post , I still haven’t learned where the somali language/people (and its related dialects) was derived from-isn’t that what majority of you guyz are trying to proof here :confused: . I just hope that as the thread continues, the negative stereotypes wont persist or prevail by bashing other minority cultures (where technically some Somalis have originated from) and their derivatives (coz the latter is highly controversial and at times is set off by HATE by former chief qaabil-oriented Somalis who in the past decided the history of the SOMALI_MINORIES and written books about to entertain skewed minds). --and Iam not saying that the posters here have done so..I am actually wrong..some said that so and so (Qaabil hebel) have acquired negative stereotypes as a result of such actions/aspects/circumstances being recurrent :eek: in their cultures :rolleyes: -C'mon lets be real here..are you joking or you are high on methane ..AMAZING discoveries I tell ya. Otherwise, carry on Now I speak: My mother tongue-Kalenjin (Ki Nandi) and Kiswahili (Swahili) My ‘other’ mother tongue-Somali My adoptee are:-kiluhya, Kijaluo(luo), Kimaragoli, Kikuyu, :rolleyes: Kingereza(English), Kiarabu(Arabic) :cool: .
