RIO DE JANEIRO Men's Nike Air VaporMax Plus All Black Shoes Sale , Feb. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Aedes aegypti mosquito behind the Zika epidemic spreading through Latin America has become the biggest public enemy in Brazil with the launch of a national campaign.
The government launched a one-day national mobilization against the mosquito that spreads the Zika virus as well as dengue and Chikungunya, deploying some 220,000 troops across the country to raise awareness and help stamp out the insect's breeding grounds.
The English-language Rio Times dubbed it a "D-Day," as millions of pamphlets were distributed and homes and business premises were fumigated.
President Dilma Rousseff and cabinet ministers joined the campaign to curb the spread of the pest suspected of causing birth defects by affecting the fetuses.
Authorities have confirmed three deaths in Brazil linked to the Zika virus, with the victims reportedly already weakened by other ailments. The spread of the virus has coincided with an apparent surge in cases of microcephaly Nike Air VaporMax Plus Men's All University Red Shoes Sale , a disease among babies born with abnormally small heads, and related hearing and sight impairments, as well as possible learning disabilities.
More than 5,000 suspected cases of microcephaly have been registered in Brazil since an increase was first detected in late 2015. To date, 462 cases of microcephaly have been confirmed in Brazil.
The World Health Organization has declared a global health emergency due to the virus' spread through the region.
Athletes expected to take part in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio in August have expressed concern, and local officials have promised to fumigate venues. They also said that the tropical mosquito should not be a major problem in the winter month of August.
Brazilian researchers have developed a highly accurate molecular test that can detect the Zika virus in samples of blood, saliva or urine within five hours. Previous tests took several days to show results.
This week, Brazil and the United States are expected to sign an agreement to jointly develop a vaccine against the Zika virus.
DHAKA, March 17 (Xinhua) -- Bangladeshi development activists on Thursday welcomed China's adoption of the charity law Men's Nike Air VaporMax Plus Triple Black Sale , saying that it will create a solid legal framework to ensure the healthy development of charity activities in China.
China's national lawmakers on Wednesday voted for the charity law at the closing meeting of the annual parliamentary session.
The new law, which was adopted at the annual legislative session and will take effect in September, eases restrictions on the fundraising and operational activities of charity groups, promises tax benefits for the sector, and will tighten supervision on their internal management.
"We highly appreciate the Chinese leadership and their further efforts to eliminate poverty through strengthening charity activities Men's Nike Air VaporMax Plus White Black Sale ," Mahbubur Rashid, a senior Bangladeshi journalist who has decades of experiences in covering development activities, told Xinhua on Thursday.
He said the law will hopefully pave the way for more enterprises and wealthy people to extend more support to charity projects.
"I think charity boom in China will immensely benefit the world at large in the near future," said Rashid who has now been working at The Financial Express, a leading English daily.
Echoing Mahbubur Rashid Nike Air Max 2018 Sale , Jasim Katabi, director general of local development organization Green Belt Trust, told Xinhua that the law is surely a major step to encourage more enterprises and wealthy people to support more charity projects.
"Hope in near future more Chinese charity organizations could make more contributions to the poverty eradication drives in Bangladesh like countries around the world."
Safiul Azam, president of Dhaka-based voluntary organization The World Raymen, praised the law aimed at responding to public concerns.
"We think now we could work more closely with Chinese charities and enterprizes Nike Air Max Plus 97 Sale ," Safiul Azam said to Xinhua.
Bangladesh development activists say charities can support people deep into the rural areas and help children of migrant workers with education and disaster relief.
A senior official of BRAC, a leading international NGO based in Bangladesh, said "Its great to learn that the Chinese government waived corporate income tax on donations made by companies from their profits."
The official who did not like to be named said the Chinese charity law will surely be example for governments elsewhere in the world.
