Ebola lingers in semen for nine months

Ebola could come back. It could be a problem again. For three or more years we have heard news reports about the Ebola Crisis in Sierra Leone. This virus has been extinguished and stopped. There are now many survivors.

A new research study in New England Journal of Medicine reports that in tests, two-thirds or 66% of male survivors are carrying the virus in their semen. Men who have survived Ebola are being encouraged to wear condoms. The society who helps survivors the health clinics and community hospitals should try to organise the use of condoms.

Margaret Chan, who is the director-general of the World Health Organisation (WHO) is worried. She said to the BBC it worrying because they don't know. She thinks people need to take precaution and advise survivors to use contraceptions.

I think that the measures might not be sufficient because they can't control all the people who may have the virus in their cells.

Vocabulary:
Contraception - anticonceptiu


Youtube

Nowadays youtube is getting more importance. In my opinion is because you can see any kind of content everywhere. In contrast, in TV, the programmes starts and finish at one hour predeterminate. Besides the TV have so much publicity.

My favourite YouTubers are two: El canal de Korah and Joe Weller.

- Korah is a youtuber with 200.000 subscribers, who is 35 years old. He is a  who dub Far Cry, South Park... His videos are about humour, but also have videos about Spartan Race and other things which bother him. His best and popular series is "Doblando virales".

Climate Pact Recognizes Rights, Now the Work Begins

Nowadays 195 countries adopted a new global agreement on climate change. This is the first global agreement which is addressed to that concerns.The main objective of the agreement protects the people who are more exposed to effects of climate change and another concern is save the glaciers. But for doing it, in climate-related actions, we have to save the protection of natural ecosystems and food security.

The countries who negotiated the deal are focus on bear binding legal obligations to respect and fulfill the rights of their people. I said respect the rights of the people because the obligation of a govern is protect the people who live in their country. 

That is a big step, but the big step is help countries adapt to climate change and above everything help marginalised populations, because if we don't do it they won't can participate in the agreement.


Vocabulary:
Deal - acord
Fulfill - cumplir
Bear - suportar

Is jealousy natural? Are prenups necessary?


Is jealousy natural?

Before discuss if the jealousy is natural or not, I have to establish what means it. Be jealousy isn't a mental illness. Be jealous is state of being jealous.

For many people be jea bond with the people who have around.
loss is a natural way to protect our 
I think that we are naturally jealousy depending on the kind of relation established. If the relation involves a person who is very  important and have  an essential role in your life, is naturally be jealous or have a minimum  interest or preoccupation to this person. But if the role isn't important you don't have it.
For that reason I think that in a relationship is natural have jealous but exaggeratedly.


                                                                                    Are prenups necessary?


A prenup is an official document signed by two people before they get married that says what will happen to their possessions and children if they divorce.

Prenups are very controversial due that we have to know the advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:
- Protects your interests in business
- If one of the couple has more debts, when you break up you don't have to pay these debts.

Disadvantages:
- Can build up suspicion between the couple.
-Can be difficult imagine how you going to solve the big problems on your future live.

I think that is not necessary do a prenup if you are a normal person without business. But if you are a businessman, soccer player... I think that can be useful in some situations.


Vocabulary:

Bond - vinculos
Controversial - conflictiu
Debts - deuda
Suspicion - desconfiança

TED TALKS: Thomas Peschak - Dive into an ocean photographer's world

Thomas Peschak first fell in love with the ocean world when he was 10 yeas old. Thomas found that taking photographs of the hidden world helps people learn to love it. But nowadays this ocean world is difficult to found, for this reason, he becomes a conservation photographer.

He photographs animals and ecosystems (sharks, whales, turtles and marine life) for National Geographic magazine. His best locations are in South Africa where photographs sardines, dolphins and sharks and Indonesia (Maldives) where photographs manta ray and an archipelago of coral islands.

In South Africa see who dolphins and sharks aren't enemies, dolphins help the sharks to hunt with a way more effective.
As well as he has been in places not protected like Hanifaru, due to his pictures this places become a protected zones.

In my opinion, the work of this men is very important for the Earth because we need something which makes aware about own acts.

TED TALK

Make aware - concienciar

Chinese smog


Nowadays the pollution in Beijing (China) has become extreme.

The effects of this pollution are similar to that of a nuclear winter. Moreover, there isn't the sun because the pollution covers it.

That effect is that air has become toxic for people, animals, plants, food... for this reason the people have to put a mask on her mouth and nose for protecting her health.

This article shocked me because if we do not look after our planet, nobody will do for us. Our obligation, I think that we have to do is look after the Earth for our future generations. I hope that we have time for resolve this big problem.

Human right

These days the human rights is a trending topic because we are infringing them. The human right are the rights you have simply because you are human.
They are created in 1945 in Paris for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and nowadays we have 30. 


The article 5  say:

"No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment."
I don't know about these human right because it is a break every day. We have the evidence of that human right is violate by 102 countries. In Europ the main countries where is break is in Rusia and Turquia. In Rusia is used to get confessions. In the United Kingdom when he found a terrorist, they send the terrorists to other countries where the torture is legal. Also in Spain we have cases where torture is used by the police. 
I think that human right is difficult to respect in terrorism situations or extreme situations.


Vocabulary:

Punishment - castig o sanció
