HUMAN RIGHTS FOR CHILDREN

For the very beginning of a person ́s life, he or she has human rights without distinction or
discrimination of any kind such as race, color, sex, language, religion, opinion, social origin, or others.
A person younger than 18 years of age is considered to be a child. Most children cannot completely
protect and take care of themselves. They depend on adults ́ protection and care. When a child doesn ́t have
his or her rights respected, one should encourage him or her to talk to a caring adult. One may
also want to talk to an adult about the situation to make sure the child gets help. Some adults do not
know about human rights and do not teach children about them.
Unfortunately, millions of children all over the world can not assert their rights. To guarantee the
human rights of children is to invest in the future . From: Mine and yours – Human Rights for kids by Joe
Berry for Amnesty International USA.

place is great and his parents are nice to us. We stayed there for hours but we didn’t watch TV. We played
video games instead, because the TV programs were all boring. Jack could play with us or do something
else, but he decided to go home, so he phoned his parents to pick him up earlier. I was not hungry, however,

can’t decide!

Prescriptions for fighting epidemics

Epidemics have plagued humanity since the dawn of settled life. Yet, success in conquering them
remains patchy. Experts predict that a global one that could kill more
than 300 million people would come round in the next 20 to 40 years.
What pathogen would cause it is anybody’s guess. Chances are that it
will be a virus that lurks in birds or mammals, or one that that has not
yet hatched. The scariest are both highly lethal and spread easily among
humans. Thankfully, bugs that excel at the first tend to be weak at the
other. But mutations – ordinary business for germs – can change that in
a blink. Moreover, when humans get too close to beasts, either wild or packed in farms, an animal disease
can become a human one.
A front-runner for global pandemics is the seasonal influenza virus, which mutates so much that a
vaccine must be custom-made every year. The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, which killed 50 million to 100
million people, was a potent version of the “swine flu” that emerged in 2009. The H5N1 “avian flu” strain,
deadly in 60% of cases, came about in the 1990s when a virus that sickened birds made the jump to a
human. Ebola, HIV and Zika took a similar route.
