Pizza Plus uses these details and startsits drone service and sales increase greatly. A month after starting this new service one of Pizza Plus drones falls and hits Jill, acustomer, on the head, causing serious injuries.a) What types of corporate liability can Piz za Plus Pty Ltd be exposed to because of Bettys actions?b) Can Jill take legal action against Pizza Plus and explain what areas of law could be involved. Answers: 1. According to Australian partnership Act 1963-Section-6, partnership is a legal relation between two or more people hauling on a business with a view of investment, profit and loss. In part 6 of this partnership act, it is stated that partnership involves an external partnership in some provisions of business (Australian Capital Territory, 2015). Furthermore, section-13 of Partnership Act 1963 depicts that each partner of a firm other than incorporated limited partnership will be liable jointly with the other partners for obligations and debts of firm that are incurred at the time while the partner is a partner of the firm. However, a partner will be liable for obligations and debts of the partnership if the partnership is not satisfying clearly the debts and obligations and has a greater extent as stated in partnership agreement (Barron, 2013). Therefore, a partner can be sued from the operation of partnership Act if they involved in a partnership and will held be liable for any t ransaction in the partnership. Liability of Partners to Outsiders: The partnership Act recognizes different kinds of partners such as active or general partners, silent or sleeping partners which may be involved in the management of the firm. In this way, the principle of outsider liability is originated from the case of Re Baird (1870), which is stated in Partnership Act (Adams and Nehme, 2015). This principle depicts that if in a firm the transaction arises due to the normal or usual course and any third party is dealing with the partner as a lack of authority, than the firm will be liable for transaction as the principle of transaction. The liability will be imposed on the all partners by tort and virtue of Partnership Act (NSW s 5; SA s 5; Qld 8; WAs26; Tas s 6; Vic s 9; NTs9; ACT s 9;). Furthermore, the partner can be sued from the operations of partnership and will be liable for any act of partners if the arisen issue is a kind of business and usually carried by the firm. According to partnership operations, if a partner does act within the scope of business but the transaction is not being done in a usual way. Then, the other partners will be not liable for the act of that partner. For example: in case of Jenkins v Goldberg (1889), a partner borrowed fund at 60% interest rate on behalf of the firm which was an unusual way, because the interest rate was far in excess in comparison of normal commercial interest rate (Arbabzada, 2016). Therefore, other partners will be not liable for this action and cannot be sued for this. On the other hand, in case of Holland and Whittington (HW), P is the client of the firm. H as a senior manager dealt with P, but H junior manager gave advice for the investment. P lost a considerable amount and then H junior manager disappeared. I n this situation, P can sue for theirs loses because court held that the advice of investment was in the usual course of the firm therefore the partners are liable for fraud of junior manager. Hence, the outsiders can sue from the rest partners if they do not recover their amount from the engaged partner. 2 (A). In the given case, Betty used secret details of Dominos about the drone delivery service and customer lists and give them to other company. Therefore, the given situation is a clear case, where a corporation has been involved in wrong doings by seeking to get inside information of a competing company. So, the corporate liability arises and also, as the director of the company was fully aware and involved in this offence, directors personal liabilities also arise. The corporate theory emphasizes a wider range of practical issues that are related to corporate law. In Australia, corporate liability for wrong doing and responsibility are remarkable for a number of reasons (Arofa et al, 2015). In this way, they exhibit a clear tendency towards the concept of blameworthiness that will lead to criminal corporate liability for the organization rather than a contractual model of corporation. Furthermore, there are major expansions in Australian law for the strictness of sanctions emplo yed as a method of accountability for corporate misconduct. According to Criminal Code Act 1995, an individual commits offence against section 271.5, 271.6, 271.7, 271.7D or 271.7E if he is conducted to the constitution of offence that occurred within a territory and the conducted constitution of the offence is engaged by Constitutional Corporation (Austlii, 2016). Furthermore, the corporate employer may be sued for the action of its employees by the theory of vicarious liability. According to vicarious liability it is responsibility of employer that if it does not discuss the responsibility of employees then employer would be liable for damages and injuries (Giliker, 2010). According to competition act, the company may be held liable to cause the competition away from both of the companies as Dominos Australia Ltd and Pizza Plus Pty Ltd (Morandin and Smith, 2011). Along with this, Pizza Plus breached the terms, policies and conditions defined in the Australian corporate law 2001. This is the case of like insider trading in which the confidential information of the company is used by the investors for personal benefit. Similarly, Will used the confidential information of Dominos Australia Ltd for competing against the company and achieving the higher growth (CCH Australia, 2010). The company may be held liable because the way of competing and w inning the market used by company is not legally fair. The company may be held liable for the public interest because the information stolen by the Pizza Plus will affect the business of Dominos Australia Ltd which causes the wealth loss to investors. (B). Yes, Jill can take legal action against the Pizza Plus Pty Ltd. According to Australian law, it is the responsibility of management and director that they have all the business information confidential. In this case, according to Law of Torts, Jill can take legal action against the Pizza Plus Pty Ltd. the law of tort describes that an individual is liable to take legal action if individual face the loss, injury, and any damage from the other person then individual can sue case against the responsible people and firm for compensation (Calo et al, 2016). As per the law, the liability of tort arises when an individual suffers from damage and injury due to violation of contract by any other person. In this type situation, the person who breaches the rules by implementing new services in organization without having the full information about the project then organization will be liable to pay compensation. In context of Jill, the Jill can sue the case on Pizza Plus Pty Ltd as they im plemented the drone delivery service on basis of Dominos Australia Ltd services. Further, on basis of Corporations Act 2001, it is required that company or firm doesnt disclose any secret information of company to others (CCH Australia, 2010). If they does and caught by law they would be liable for entire case. The case between Liebeck v. McDonalds Restaurants 1992 is an example case in which company is liable for customers injury. In this case, coffee cup was fall on the Liebeck and he suffers from the burn injuries. After this StellaLiebeck sue a court case against the McDonald and court accepts the plea of Liebeck. In this case, court founded that according to law of tort, McDonald is liable for entire case and court give the order to McDonald for the StellaLiebecks compensation (Rosenfeld, 2015). On the other hand, in case of Jill and Pizza Plus the Australian product testing laws breaches. In this case, it is possibility that Pizza Plus implement the concept of drone delivery service without any testing and it has some technical issues which cause the drones falls. If any person suffers injuries due to lack of testing then the company or firm would be liable for entire case which implements concept of drone delivery service (ACCC, 2016). According to Australian product testing law, In case of Jill and Pizza Plus, it is the responsibility of company that they would conduct product testing related to service s of Drone delivery system to provide the better services and reduces the risk of injuries. But Pizza Plus does not test the services of Drone delivery system and it cause of Jills serious injuries. The case of Procter Gamble related to Clairol Touch of Yogurt Shampoo in 1979 is the example case for the product testing. In this case, company does not conduct any testing related to shampoo quality and after using this product many customers face the various skin diseases (Frohlich, 2014). Further, court accepts the plea of peoples and gives order to company for customers injuries compensation and to stop the sale of that product. On the basis of this, it can be said that Jill is liable to take legal action against the Pizza Plus. References: ACCC, (2016) Product testing [online].

Organizational Theory and Decision Making Health and Social Care

Question: Discuss about theOrganizational Theory and Decision Makingfor Health and Social Care. Answer: Introduction The health and social care sector relies upon the physical and social well being of society members. The social care sectors provide different kinds of health care services, which supports service users well being. To provide quality health and social care service, proper management of the organization is very important for these organizations. In this context, organizational theory has a very important role. Based on the type of the organization, different organizational theories are followed by the health and social care organization, like the other corporate sector organizations (Nicolini, 2012). Organizational theory is referred to the approach, by which the organizational analysis is done. There are different perspectives, based on which the organizational theories are developed. The classical, neoclassical and environmental perspectives have been analyzed by many scientists; based on which the organizational theories has been developed. A strategy, which is adopted by the organ ization in a particular situation, may not be applicable to another situation, thus, a generalized standards should be established in the organization, which would be able to evaluate the suitability of a strategy in any kind of situation (Argote, 2012). Usually, organizations experience several issues regarding right decision-making. In this context, organizational theory has a significant role in providing a strategic direction to the organizational management. In this essay, the focus is the discussion about the importance of organizational theory on the decision making of Queenly Community health service. The organization provides counseling services to the community members, but the organization is experiencing some issues regarding client access. Understanding the importance and role of organizational theory can help to make right decisions about the strategies for improving the situation. Background of the Situation The main focus of this essay is to address the needs of Queenly community health service to understand the importance of organizational theory and to follow the suitable organizational theory, which help the organization to understand the correct strategic decision for the organizational well being. QCHS is a social service organization, which offers a wide range of services in their regional area. The care users are referred to the organization by their health care practioners or they are self-referred. The organization uses service model for delivering counseling services to the care users; which include an initial counseling appointment with the general counseling practitioner or a specialist-counseling practitioner (Hassard Pym, 2012). While getting the appointment, the clients current needs are assessed by the rostered intake-counseling practitioner, who is accountable for referring the clients to specialist or general counseling team of QCHS. According to their model of care d elivery, a client has to wait for 3 months to come for the intake assessment appointment. Though the organization receives workforce cost CPI (customer price increase) to be increased per years, staffing is not increasing significantly. Thus, the organizational management is being inefficient to deal with these issues. Implementation of strategic decisions following a suitable organizational theory would help to deal with these issues (Battilana Casciaro, 2012). In this situation, the organizational model of care delivery should be modified for achieving more efficiency in care delivery along with the incorporation of some new strategy and practices for improving client access and organizational operations. Therefore, such organizational theory should be carefully selected, which supports organizational change. In this case, the contingency theory would be the suitable one for undertaking strategic decision in QCHS. Importance of Organizational Theory in Organizational Decision Making The organizational decision-making is one of the most important part in the management, which is supported by a suitable organizational theory. For instance, if the organization is facing issues related to staffing or client handling, the contingency theory of leadership can be followed. This theory states that based on the situational analysis, the leader should select the leadership style to be followed, which would beneficial for the organization. Aligning with the contingency leadership theory, the leader would adopt the right leadership style; as a result, the leader would be able to handle the complex situation in the organization. The contingency theory views the organization as a constrained optimization problem, thus, the organizational management should always try to maximize the performance by eliminating the internal and external constrains. In the context of QCHS, the organization is experiencing inefficient utilization of resources and inappropriate client handling, whi ch can be mitigated by improving the leadership aspects. Blackmore and Sachs (2012) claimed that, according to the contingency organizational theory, there is no best strategy or way, through which an organization can make decision in any kind of contemporary situation. Rather, the optimal course of action is contingent upon the internal and external situation. Before making the strategic decision for the organization, with the help of the selected organizational theory, the current needs should be assessed.. As a result, the operations or practices undertaken by the organization are not meeting their objectives and expected outcomes (Seo et al., 2012). Therefore, the objective of the decision-making would be to modify the model of care, which would be more accessible ad effective for the clients. On the other hand, another priority is the utilization of the financial and human resource properly, for satisfying the clients. Operations Analyzing the situation at QCHS, it has been understood that the organization needs change management for improving the entire system. Therefore, the organizational change will be accomplished by renewing and managing the organizational operations. The human resource management system of the organization would have a key role in managing the operations, to support the change in the organization. In this context, the contingency theory of decision-making highlights that the effectiveness of an organizational decision depends upon different facets of the situation, based on which the decision is being made (Senior Fleming, 2006).These features include: The level of relevant literatures acquired by the leaders and subordinates The importance of quality and acceptance of the decision The level of disagreement within the subordinates regarding the alternatives for change implementation The first and foremost strategic decision that should be taken by the organization is improving the leadership style of the leaders. The managers and team leaders of QCHS counseling team should be trained to support the change. It is because, in organizational decision making regarding change implementation, the leaders plays a pivotal role in empowering the subordinates to adapt the change. Fred fielder, the developer of contingency theory argued that team performance is the result of the association between the environmental characteristic and the leadership style adopted by the leader (Garca-Morales, Jimnez-Barrionuevo Gutirrez-Gutirrez, 2012). Therefore, a education session for the leaders and managers would be the initial strategic decision, supporting the contingency theory of decision making. The education process for the leaders would include three sessions. Module 1: Introduction to the new system, software and website designs and resource utilization Module 2: Management and empowerment of organizational workforce through the change implementation period, with the adoption of transformational leadership style Module 3: Handling clients with the new system for gaining beneficial outcomes The contingency theory directs the organizational leaders to adopt transformational leadership style, because, this leadership style helps leaders to support change and to adopt leadership skills for encouraging subordinates. Based on this theory, the contingent leader should effectively apply his own style of leadership to handle the situation in a correct way. The next strategic decision that the organization should undertake, would be to utilize their financial resources, by recruiting an experienced financial analyst (Elwyn et al., 2012). From the situation analysis of QCHS organization, it has been revealed that, the organization is receiving customer price increase each year, but due to inappropriate utilization, the staffing positions are not anticipated for QCHS. Thus, the financial analyst would be able to identify the areas, where the management team is inappropriately utilizing resources. Based on the contingency theory of decision-making, the analyst would collect the res ources from the leaders and team members and based on that the resource assessment would be done. An Electronic resource utilization software would be integrated in the management system. This system would be able to track the details of resource utilization in an electronic version, thereby enhancing the safety of the information. The stored data in this system, would be analyzed by the financial analyst. He would then be able to analyze the resource utilization by each component or department of the organization with the expected outcomes (Barry Edgman-Levitan, 2012). For instance, if one area is identified, where a huge amount of financial resource is utilized, but expected outcomes are not reached, the analyst can cut the cost from there to be utilized in such a domain, where the expected outcomes are meeting efficiently. In this way, the staffing shortage can also be mitigated, by utilizing the financial resources in recruiting and training more staffs (Young, 2012). With more staff, QCHS professionals would be able to attain more patients at a time; thereby reducing clients waiting time. Client Access To improve the clients access, staffing should be improved by the organization. Several factors are affecting or hindering the client access in QCHS. One factor is lack of knowledge and skills of the service providers. Due to lack of knowledge about management of consumer services, the proper management of clients needs is being hampered. As a result, the organizational management is being hampered, which is inducing issues regarding client management. Hence, introducing training session for the professional would be suitable for improving the client management. In the training session, the time management skills would be taught. The training would be aligned with the newly implemented model of care delivery. In this way, the internal skills of leaders can be improved, making them efficient in handling subordinates and clients (Carr Beresford, 2012). According to the contingency theory, the organizational management should be able to implement different strategies based on the situa tion. QCHS needs to renew the operation and management system for improving client access. In QCSH, clients have to wait for more than 3 months, to get a n appointment. However, the organization can introduce online appointment option, which will help the clients to access the organizational website of get an appointment. A system can be integrated, which will help the professionals would be able to directly communicate with clients through video chat. It would eliminate the necessity of clients waiting for more than three months. The system will include the development of a software, associated with organizational website, through which all the client related activities could be done (Catlin-Legutko Klingler, 2012). The system would be able to record clients information, date of appointment, personal and demographic information, follow ups, resources required for counseling, payment and other important aspects. It would make the process easier to handle and faster. The Client woul d not need to wait for months for needs assessment, as it would be done by video chat, through the same website. The system would also include the SMS reminder facility, to keep the track of clients adherence (Knights Willmott, 2012). The leaders would play a pivotal role in the assessment and client management process, by applying democratic leadership style. The entire care delivery process would be discussed in the next part. Model of Care Delivery In QCHS, the model of care delivery includes the a rostered intake-counseling practitioner, who practices the need assessment of the clients and attempt to address the actual reason of counseling; and then, based on the priority and health needs, the generalized or specialized counseling appointment are set. However, sometime, based on the health priority, patients, who need emergency counseling, are attended by QCHS practitioners. The model of care delivery would be designed based on the contingency theory of decision-making. According to this theory, the change should be conveyed to the members and the goals should be set based on their acceptance or disagreement (Myers, Hulks Wiggins, 2012). Therefore, initially, all the employees would be provided with a session regarding the organizational change and their consent would be collected. Based on their acceptance, the following model of care delivery would be implemented: Contact with the client through QCHS website or telephone Collection of demographic information and reference Documentation and reason for counseling Video chat with the client, through the organizational website and detailed needs assessment. This step will replace the initial counseling appointment for needs assessment. Based on health needs, the client would be categorized, whether he should be appointed to a general or a specialist counselor. Goals of counseling program would be set, based on clients needs, following the contingency theory of decision-making. The reminder would be set in the software with the name and client ID, which would also be immediately conveyed to the professional team or individual practitioner, to whom the client is being appointed. It will help to schedule professionals convenience. An appointment date would be generated immediately and a reminder would be sent to clients personal mobile number With improved staffing, the waiting time of client would be reduced. Clients would get an appointment within 1-2 week of the initial needs assessment All the resource required for the client would also be documented electronically A gentle reminder would be sent to the client, via SMS one day before the scheduled appointment by the HR department After the first session, based on the requirement, client would get online follow-up counseling session. Face-to-face counseling would only be applicable to the emergency patients All the documentation would be in the electronic version Each clients data would be conveyed and discussed with the team, and the analyst will keep the track of resource utilization. After completion of the counseling sessions, feedback would be collected, which would be used for further change management. Above discussion shows, the importance of organizational theory in decision-making has been understood. It reveals that, contingency theory is the best-suited organizational theory for QCHS. This theory reveals that leaders should use the best leadership style for decision-making in contemporary situation and there is no way by which an unique strategy can be implemented at any organizational circumstances. In QCHSs situation, the leadership and decision-making strategies should be prioritized (Pearson, 2012). Thus, contingency theory directed the requirement of adopting transformational leadership style by the organizational leaders. It helps the leaders to guide their subordinate during change implementation. On the other hand, the contingency theory of decision-making helped the management to consider the acceptance or disagreement of the staffs before implementing the change. It influences the leaders to use democratic leadership style, following the contingency theory, where lea ders can adopt the best leadership style to deal with the situation through the correct strategy (Shore, 2012). Conclusion In this essay, the focus was to discuss the importance of organizational theory in context of QCHSs organizational conflicts. Based on the situation, the contingency theory has been selected and followed for change implementation in the organization. Following an organizational theory is important for analyzing the situation and selecting the best possible strategy to resolve the organizational conflicts. Here, the improvement in leadership, an organizational system development and financial analyst recruitment has been discussed as the possible strategic decision for QCHS. Reference List Argote, L.

Global Markets

Introduction Technological advancements have made it possible for the world to be closely connected. Many business organizations have opted to widen the scope of their markets from just being localized to serving the world wide market.Advertising We will write a custom essay sample on Global Markets specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More In as much as this is a good step to take, there are considerations which need to be taken seriously before a business can embark on this journey. This article is a brief review of what it takes to globalize business activities. Going Global is a Long Term Project It is very significant to acknowledge that going global is a long term project. Being a long term project therefore implies that the benefits may not be enjoyed in the short run and thus the need to have some funds set aside for this process. This might not be welcome for companies seeking profits in the short run. When venturing into differen t markets, one needs to carry out an extensive research as in most cases there are many factors that differ among different regions which need to be taken care of. Such factors may include issues such as customer preferences, legal considerations, and other logistics. These factors can not be taken care of at once; they have to be considered in a step wise manner hence making the whole process a long term one. The Need for Research Going global means venturing into new markets around the world; markets constitute of people with different values which in most cases become determinants of what they consume. Going global has to be preceded by a market research (Lamb, Hair McDaniel, 2010). An effective market research will take time and funds. Carrying out a market research is extremely important if the process of going global has to be successfully carried out.Advertising Looking for essay on business economics? Let's see if we can help you! Get your first paper with 15% OFF Learn More By carrying out a market research various significant aspects will be brought into light making it possible for a business to engage in strategic modification of its goods to fit the new markets – it is worth noting that it is the goods to fit the markets and not markets to fit the goods. Some of the significant aspects which need to be researched on include legal issues, cultural factors, competition, and presence of strategic partners among other factors. All these factors have to be examined carefully to retrieve accurate information because any assumptions made may likely make a huge contribution to failure of a company in its globalization process (Levi, 2007). It is quite unfortunate that in most cases, a primary research has to be carried out to find out how best goods can be adapted to fit in a new market. This is especially the case when the goods are unique in the market. New kinds of goods are often confronted with cultural challenges in new market s and in some cases they may even be rejected in some areas depending on cultural backgrounds of such areas. If an organization decides to bring in goods whose substitutes are already in the market then still research has to be carried out to identify how such goods can be modified to compete well with the other substitutes already established in the market. Other logistics such as getting a license in venturing into new markets have to be considered before even the market research because some countries may have restrictions on importation of goods. It should also be noted that globalizing of a company activities and operations will lead to extra administrative costs (Audretsch Bonser, 2002). International markets have some uncertainties some of which may be out of control of a foreign company: for instance, there might be constant change of laws regulating taxes, the volume of commodities which can brought into a country among other legislation which may act to the benefit of the foreign country but at the expense of the company (Dahl, 2004). As seen above, the process of globalizing business operations is time and money consuming especially at the initial stages of getting to know new markets. This challenge should however not be viewed in a negative manner because there are ways that can be used to cut down costs.Advertising We will write a custom essay sample on Global Markets specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More One of the ways is by engaging in partnership with a company already operating in the new markets and use the knowledge of such a company on various aspects of the new market (Delaney, 2011). The advantage that comes with the process of globalizing business activities is that of increased sales thus increased profits. By venturing into new markets, a business creates more room for expansion and reduces the risk of local market uncertainties. New markets also make it possible for a business to com e up with strategies which might even be imported to the local market. Conclusion Globalizing business activities requires advanced planning as there are many aspects which have to be considered. Due to the detailed planning especially at the initial stages, the process becomes costly and consumes a lot of time. In the long run, however, the process is beneficial to a business seeking this kind of expansion. By globalizing business activities a business benefits from increased sales and diversifies the risks associated with the local market. References Audretsch, D.B. Bonser, F.C. (2002).

Free Essays on Teen Drivers

â€Å"scary quote†¦.† Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death in people ages 16 to 20. They account for roughly one-third of all fatalities in this age group. People ages 16 to 20 make up only six percent of American drivers and only drive three percent of all miles driven yet they are involved in fifteen percent of traffic deaths. Traffic accidents are the leading cause of disability and spinal cord injuries among youth. A 16-year-old driver is twenty times as likely to have a traffic accident as the general population. With these sobering statistics as a backdrop, let’s take a look at the factors endangering our young drivers. Inexperience though this may seem obvious can make a big difference. Most young drivers simply don’t have the behind-the-wheel experience necessary to understand the dynamics associated with driving a motor vehicle. There’s a vast difference between riding in the passenger seat and being behind the wheel. Generally, when it comes to driving, age and experience lends a certain â€Å"street savviness† to the endeavor. Many teens drivers also have a tendency to drive too fast. This sometimes leads to poor driving decisions and can cause accidents. According to NHTSA, almost a quarter (twenty-two percent) of Americans who died in speed-related crashes were youth (15-20). And yet they represent just six percent of the total driving population. While teen substance abuse has been a concern for decades, mixing it with motor vehicles has particularly lethal effects. Its dangerous enough for teens to ingest substances that alter perception and reaction times; doing it behind the wheel of a car is almost suicidal. Statistics show some signs of abating, but the numbers are still too high. Almost equally suicidal is the refusal to wear seatbelts. According to NHTSA, approximately fifty-four percent of young people who die in passenger vehicle crashes are not wearing seatbelts. Its impossible to chang...

The question of the past how does it influence the future and the Essay

The question of the past how does it influence the future and the present , can we change it what is the meaning of history in o - Essay Example Past events and experiences designs and shapes our present feelings, personality traits and present manifested behavior, (Darnton 123). All the experiences that people have been through during childhood dramatically influence the present and future life. Ones past constantly affect his present and will keep influencing his present and future as long as one is not aware of the linkage between his past, present and future. In fact, some psychoanalysts and psychologists argue that one’s present life is a product of the past events, experiences and behavior. Early memories of childhood are the foundation from which most of the people begin to form their beliefs, norms and value about the universe. For instance, if a young child believed that his family is according extra attention and care to his younger brother then he may grow with the misconception that his parents adore his younger brother than him. This past event influence the life of this child later on, because the child w ill grow with the belief that someone else is better preferred over him. When that boy matures and marries, he might begin thinking that the wife is infidel whenever she associates or smiles to another man. In this case, the initial believe that developed during childhood influenced the man’s perception of life. ... In terms of the experiences, people made decisions concerning such experiences that they consequently carry forward with them. In fact, people project such experiences into their tomorrow and expect such dreams, decisions, thoughts and beliefs to continue being real, (Darnton 128). For instance thoughts such as â€Å"I am good for nothing, they don’t love me, I am ugly† when people project these thoughts out into their future - with expectations of them being true in the present and future – people perpetuate themselves being the same people they believe to be tomorrow. In other words, they recreate the similar experiences over time, proving to themselves that they are indeed, that person of the past. Times is must spend and slowly and steadily running. This is the steadiest progress that one can speak about -time. Thus, each moment of an individuals’ life is exactly a yesterday’s time. When we were born, we began this journey of life at zero, and n ow several decades of our lifetime are spend. Thus, people definitely have a history, a past, indeed. Reflecting back at the past, we discover some happy moments and other unhappy moments. The past only makes a different through one’s perception of the current and future world around him. The past defines one’s ways of perceiving the current and the tomorrow’s world. It shapes our expectations, behavior, and values of the world and events taking place now and in the future. Therefore, it is evident that one’s past life increasingly affects his thoughts, views and choices that he makes in the current life and for next life to come. Can we change the past? As earlier

H5N1 Avian virus Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1750 words

H5N1 Avian virus - Essay Example Moreover, this virus also has the ability to undergo antigenic drifts and antigenic shifts. The emergence of new strains of Avian influenza virus is of major public health concern because of the impending threat of a pandemic that it poses. Currently, the virus does not possess the ability of being transmitted amongst humans and it has been postulated that one this quality is acquired it would lead to potentially devastating consequences in the form of a pandemic. Till date, no vaccine for the prevention of H5N1 infection amongst humans exists. Moreover, the treatment options for infection are also limited viz. oseltamivir and zanamivir. Therefore, further research needs to be undertaken in order to develop new vaccines against these organisms and better medications to combat the infection if once contracted. Moreover, vigilant surveillance of outbreaks and epidemics of bird flu is also imperative. Avian Influenza or Bird Flu, as it commonly referred to, is an infection which is caused by the H5N1 virus. The natural hosts of this virus are wild birds, in particular water fowls, who carry these viruses in their intestines while themselves remaining asymptomatic (Auewaraku 404). ... Recently, H5N1 virus is not only leading to an increasing number of epizootics, but has also been implicated in several epidemics in humans. The mode of transmission of this virus has been described as being feco-oral amongst birds, whereas humans contract the disease via contact with airborne particles from infected poultry or while contact with the poultry or their fecal matter e.g. during food preparation (Fleming 1066). The first human infection with H5N1 was witnessed in 1997 in Hong Kong, as a result of which six out of the eighteen people affected died. Eversince, several similar outbreaks of human infection have been observed in various regions of the world and this has become an important public health concern (Auewaraku 404). At present, there are two different clades of the H5N1 which have been identified to be circulating amongst poultry. Amongst these, three subgroups from the clade 2 have been shown to infect humans viz. subclades 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 Centers for Disease C ontrol and Prevention). Infections in humans appear on a spectrum, ranging in variety and severity from relatively milder infections such as conjunctivitis to potentially serious ones such as pneumonia and can even lead to death (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). The increasing outbreaks of human infection with H5N1 are of prime concern as this organism is highly pathogenic. It has a unique ability to infect humans and this poses a threat to the human race as this virus might have the potential to evolve into a form which is transmissible from person to person (Auewaraku 404). In the past, the world has witnessed several outbreaks of influenza, causing significant morbidity and mortality. If a new strain of this virulent organism
