  • Countries recommit to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030

    Countries recommit to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030

    At the 2022 World Health Assembly, countries recommitted to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030.

    Since the initial historic commitment in 2016, the Sustainable Development Goals 2020 target of reducing the prevalence of hepatitis B in children under 5 years to under 1% has been met globally and in most WHO regions. In addition, the number of people receiving treatment for hepatitis C has increased 10-fold to more than 10 million.

    However, globally more than 350 million people are still living with this life-threatening disease. The gains made have been uneven across the world, with those most impacted often least likely to benefit, and most countries have failed to meet the GHSS 2020 targets. Few babies have access to the hepatitis B birth dose vaccine in many low- and middle-income countries, with less than 10% in Africa receiving a timely vaccine. Additionally, infection and prevention control in health care settings needs further improvements and harm reduction remains insufficiently scaled up and accessible. Stigma and discrimination continue to be a barrier to testing and care. Only 10% and 21% of people know that they live with chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C respectively, even fewer receive treatment, and liver cancer related to hepatitis is on an exponential rise especially in low- and middle-income countries. Furthermore, acute hepatitis A and E continue to impact people’s health all over the world.

    The participants of the third World Hepatitis Summit believe that the new Global Health Sector Strategies (GHSS) on HIV, viral hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections, 2022-2030, provides an opportunity to refocus global efforts, accelerate the response and recommit to the elimination of viral hepatitis by 2030.

    To make the elimination of hepatitis a reality within evolving health systems, we call on countries, global partners and other stakeholders, to act now to achieve the 2025 and 2030 targets by developing and implementing national hepatitis strategies which address the five strategic directions of the GHSS and put people living with viral hepatitis at the heart of the response.

    We ask that multisectoral action, which recognises civil society as an integral partner, is taken to operationalise hepatitis programmes which promote integration, decentralisation and task shifting to improve access.

    We call on governments, global health agencies and donors to honour commitments already made and further commit to prioritise and fund comprehensive hepatitis programmes so that everyone, everywhere, has access to affordable prevention, testing, treatment and care.

    We also call on the 350 million people living with viral hepatitis and their communities to unite, amplify their voices and take their place in the hepatitis response.

  • Rapper Megan Thee Stallion could be poised to break into yet another industry

    Rapper Megan Thee Stallion could be poised to break into yet another industry

    The newly pending trademark, filed by the rapper’s team, includes amongst others: sex toys, condoms, clothing, stationery and surprisingly: medical equipment and sex dolls.

    Megan Thee Stallion is touring Europe this summertime, for tour dates you can check here.

    Since April 2016, releasing her first single Like a Stallion, Megan Thee Stallion has received many accolades, including six BET Awards, five BET Hip Hop Awards, four American Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, a Billboard Women in Music Award, and three Grammy Awards. At the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, she became the second female rapper to win Best New Artist, following in the footsteps of Lauryn Hill in 1999.


    OPINION: Maybe it should come as no surprise. Megan graduated from Texas Southern University with a Bachelor of Science in Health Administration in 2021. The popular rapper may well be synergizing her varied expertise.

  • Elon Musk’s “Free Speech” Twitter policies could harm LGBTQ+ communities

    Elon Musk’s “Free Speech” Twitter policies could harm LGBTQ+ communities

    The Washington Blade published an article by LGBT Tech’s Carlos Gutierrez discussing Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter and the risks it could pose to the LGBTQ+ community.

    The LGBT Technology Institute (LGBT Tech) strives to serve LGBT communities through education, programs, partnerships and research.

    Twitter is billed as a social platform for everyone, but Musk’s approach – or lack thereof – to censorship and “free speech” has many advocates voicing concern about the consequences of reducing or removing content moderation on the platform, potentially making Twitter a platform rife with disinformation, misinformation, and hate speech targeted at minority and marginalized communities such as the LGBTQ+ community.

  • Is now the right time for doctors to start prescribing vibrators?

    Is now the right time for doctors to start prescribing vibrators?

    That’s one of the research questions being posed by a team of Cedars-Sinai doctors addressing female sexual dysfunction, an issue that affects around 40% of women of reproductive age worldwide.

    Dr. Alexandra Dubinskaya, a urogynecology fellow, is leading this new study at Cedars-Sinai to determine if vibrators can help women who are suffering from sexual dysfunction, urinary frequency or urgency, overactive bladder, incontinence and/or pelvic organ prolapse.

    “We know we need to exercise all parts of our bodies, and we all hear we shouldn’t skip ‘leg day,’ but we regularly skip ‘pelvic floor day. Exercising the pelvic floor muscles could be challenging, and that’s why vibrators could be a really good modality to actually massage the muscles and increase the blood flow in the area.”

    Dr. Alexandra Dubinskaya

    Women in the study are interviewed about their sexual, pelvic floor and overall health. They complete a validated questionnaire on their symptoms and undergo a pelvic exam. Participants are given a vibrator and instructed to use it three times a week for three months. Afterwards, women discuss their experience, complete exit questionnaires and undergo another pelvic exam.

    The study aims to evaluate the effect of regular vibrator use on subjective symptoms and wellness, and make an objective assessment of tissue quality and organ prolapse.

    The concept tested in the study is already in clinical use for men. Men who have had surgery for prostate cancer, for example, are routinely prescribed erectile dysfunction medications. The resulting blood flow allows the tissue to stretch and maintain its functionality.

    “In the same way the increased blood flow from an erectile dysfunction pill helps men heal following their cancer surgery, using a vibrator might help women.”

    Dr. Karyn Eilber, urologist and sexual health expert at Cedars-Sinai

    The team of doctors from Cedars-Sinai refer to a lack of studies, tools and recommendations to help women with the conditions that fall under the catch-all diagnosis that can include pelvic pain, pain during sex, arousal difficulties, orgasmic disorders and other symptoms that can take a toll on quality of life and relationships.

    “We have studies looking at the diagnosis and management of sexual dysfunction, but there isn’t really much data on the patient perspective, healthcare perception or what kind of treatments are working. There’s a huge gap in medical literature on what we can do for these patients, and we need a better understanding of what the general public knows to help treat these patients in the future.

    It’s a widespread problem that affects thousands of women. Despite the prevalence of urogynecologists, pelvic medicine doctors and sexual medicine doctors, there’s actually a really small number of people who know how to treat these disorders.”

    Dr. Poone Shoureshi, a urogynecology fellow at Cedars-Sinai


    Part of the teams’ goal is to increase conversations around sexual health. The team is awaere of the taboo and squeamishness around women’s sexual wellness and pleasure.

    “It’s an important topic,” says Dr. Eilber. “Doctors need to be actively involved in removing the stigma. We need to take sexual health and mental health as seriously as physical health.”

  • Adelaide’s The Firm Gentlemen’s Club settles legal action brought by dancer

    Adelaide’s The Firm Gentlemen’s Club settles legal action brought by dancer

    Dancer Luna took the owners of the club to the South Australian Employment Tribunal alleging there were breaches of workplace health and safety laws.

    The club denied the allegations, saying it had measures in place to protect performers.

    “Any complaint involving sexual misconduct is taken seriously”

    The Firm

    The club pointed out it has passed a SafeWork SA inspection.

    The matter has now been resolved out of court, but the terms of the settlement remain confidential.

  • South Australia’s Greens leader hopeful sex work can be decriminalized

    Legislation co-sponsored by Tammy and former deputy premier and outgoing Liberal MP Vickie Chapman failed to pass the lower house.

    Tammy says she will put up a private member’s bill to allow legal prostitution in the state. This will be the 14th time the proposal has been put to the South Australian Parliament in the past two decades.

    MPs who voted down the bill in the last debate raised concerns about street sex work. Sex Industry Decriminalisation Action Committee coordinator Georgia Thain pointed out that street sex work was about 1 to 2% of the overall industry.

    “Sex work exists, it is happening, it’s not going anywhere and how can we make sure that people have the same rights and the same access as everyone else, rather than being distracted by a very small but quite loud minority.”

  • AT&T claims it has the fastest Internet with speeds of up to 5Gbps

    AT&T claims it has the fastest Internet with speeds of up to 5Gbps

    AT&T has announced its fiber customers can now access the Internet with new multi-gigabyte speeds. Almost 5.2 million customer locations in parts of more than 70 metro areas, such as L.A., Atlanta and Dallas, will be able to take advantage of symmetrical 2-Gig and 5-Gig speed tiers.

    AT&T says that this is just the beginning: “AT&T will continue bringing multi-gig-capable technology across our current fiber footprint throughout 2022 and as part of our future expansion efforts to cover 30 million customer locations by year-end 2025.”

    Also AT&T is now rolling out ‘straightforward pricing’ across its consumer AT&T Fiber portfolio. For new customers, this means no equipment fees, no annual contract, no data caps and no price increase at 12 months – plus AT&T ActiveArmorSM internet security, next-gen Wi-Fi, and HBO Max included on their fastest speed plans – at no additional cost.

    AT&T also announced they have achieved up to 10-Gig speeds in their labs.

    “As we set out to become America’s best connectivity provider, we’re doubling down on fiber in our broadband infrastructure. “With true multi-gig speeds, and symmetrical upload and download, AT&T Fiber will redefine how we experience the internet and drive innovation, from education, to work, to entertainment.”

    CEO Jeff McElfresh, AT&T Communications

    According to a recent survey AT&T commissioned with Recon Analytics, 6 in 10 consumers purchased a new connected device in the last year. The average consumer has 13 connected devices in their home and that is expected to multiply. Many workers now have the option to work remotely long term which means more video conferencing. Consumers and small businesses are consuming more data than ever, and AT&T expect to continue to see data consumption increase from megabytes to terabytes.

    Multi-gigabyte speeds are primed for these growing demands and will provide more bandwidth for households and small businesses to run a multitude of connected devices at once. Similar to freeways with several high-speed lanes, multi-gig speeds open those lanes for various connected devices to run at their fastest possible speed.

    “The pandemic has significantly changed how consumers and businesses use the internet and what is required from a broadband provider. Faster is better – but reliability is best. And AT&T has shown it has both with AT&T Fiber.”

    Roger Entner, Founder and Lead Analyst of Recon Analytics

    AT&T Fiber 2 GIG: $110/month + taxes; AT&T Business Fiber 2 GIG: $225/month + taxes
    AT&T Fiber 5 GIG: $180/month + taxes; AT&T Business Fiber 5 GIG: $395/month + taxes

    AT&T is committed to connecting more Americans to reliable, high-speed broadband internet in several ways, including expanding and upgrading our network and participating in the federal Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP provides eligible households with a benefit of up to $30 a month and up to $75 on qualifying Tribal lands to reduce the cost of broadband service, including our new multi-gig speed tiers, which will become eligible for the benefit in the coming weeks. And we are addressing the digital divide in education through our AT&T Connected Learning initiative which focuses on investing in connectivity, technology, digital literacy and education solutions to help today’s learners succeed inside and outside of the classroom. This includes opening more than 20 AT&T Connected Learning Centers across the country, all fitted with free access to high-speed AT&T Fiber internet and Wi-Fi. We’re also keeping businesses connected with more than 675,000 U.S. business buildings lit with fiber from AT&T, enabling high-speed fiber connections to more than 2.75 million U.S. business customer locations. Nationwide, more than 9.5 million business customer locations are within 1,000 feet of our fiber.
