Can the tiger mosquito transmit diseases? This is an aboriginal case that was identified in Biscarosse. In this case, mosquitoes must be eradicated in a vector radius, 150 metres around the victim. Interview with Fabienne JOUANTHOUA, head of the ARS health division in Gironde.
The chikungunya virus that struck Reunion Island in 2005, did not remain confined to tropical regions. The mosquito that transmits this virus has also adapted to the Mediterranean climate. It already proliferates in Languedoc-Roussillon, and particularly in Hérault. It did not happen because of global warming, but by globalization via international trade in tyres exactly. Eggs were lodged in small water tanks inside the tires. The mosquito arrived in Italy in 1990, then recovered in oil stain and entered France through the border. 15 cases of Chikungunya were reported in 2011 in the PACA region. A team of researchers based in Montpellier is currently monitoring its development. At the same time, entomologists inspect the vicinity of the case, destroy mosquito roosts, and spray insecticides against larval and adult stages. They inform the inhabitants of the area on how to empty the water tanks to limit the densities of the tiger mosquito and the appearance of secondary cases (or outbreaks). The good thing is to drain the small water containers collected at home very regularly (winter and summer). The tiger mosquito has already been spotted in all departments of the region and especially in Herault. To protect yourself, you should know that the female Albopictus stings especially at the beginning and end of the day.
Testimony of Elodie, a 37-year-old professional dancer, who had to quit her job following a lipolysis that caused her to become infected and poison her blood. Coming from the United States, this practice to eliminate cellulite has been practiced for several years in beauty salons, outside the hospital setting. In 2011, following a report by the High Health Authority (HAS), which identified about twenty serious cases of infections, the Ministry of Health decided to ban practices related to lipolysis.
To treat her cellulite, journalist Laurence Postic tested the "palper-rouler" technique at the "Mince et relax" institute in Rennes. Patrick Joye, masseur, shows and explains the principle of this technique: squeeze the fat tissues and roll them between the thumb and fingers in order to deeply de-filter, oxygenate and drain by restarting the local microcirculation.
Two women share their fight against cellulite. The first one goes to a pharmacy and is presented with the existing devices for sale (high frequency device, pimple glove containing an active product, massage glove, weight loss cookies). The second, suspended from a swordsman, explains that she does a lot of sports to overcome her cellulite.
In his Parisian office, Doctor Philippe Blanchemaison, phlebologist, gives explanations on two advanced techniques of cellulite treatment: focused ultrasound and laser.
In order to improve the management of children before the age of two, neuropsychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik has just created, in Caen, in Calvados, an early childhood institute. It takes the form of monthly conferences open to nursery staff and maternal assistants. The neuropsychiatrist recalls the importance of the "preverbal" childhood period. Aurélie Puyoo, assistant director of crèche, underlines what the approach has to enrich for professionals.
Boris Cyrulnik, a neuropsychiatrist, is filmed at his home, in his home in Seyne sur Mer, in the Var. He explains why he likes the place, comments on the decoration and presents the office where he works and writes his books, without a computer, with paper and pen.
In an interview with Catherine Ceylac, neuropsychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik, whose latest book "Autobiography of a scarecrow" has just been published, talks about the effects of the omnipresence of technology in our western societies on the psychic development of children. Alone with machines, they lack social interactions and risk evolving in a "world without others", which is, he recalls, "the definition of narcissistic perversion".
Interview with Boris Cyrulnik, neuropsychiatrist and ethologist, on a cliff on the island of Porquerolles, in the Var. He dialogues with the gulls by imitating their cries and then translates them. "We realize that everyone shouts from their place for or towards another, and that it structures the group".
Catherine Ceylac speaks with psychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik who has just published "The Whisper of Ghosts". She evokes her strong presence in the media, which some may blame her, and even uses the expression "4x4 of communication". The scientist tells him that knowledge is made to be transmitted and prefers to speak of sharing rather than "popularization".
Boris Cyrulnik, neuropsychiatrist, whose latest book is entitled "A wonderful misfortune", is questioned by Catherine Ceylac. He explains that to be a psychotherapist is to be a "psychopompeur", that is to say to draw his knowledge from what his "authentic" patients tell him, the most intelligent and exciting, unlike what he calls "cultural clones".
Boris Cyrulnik, neuropsychiatrist, who has just published "Autobiography of a scarecrow", is questioned by Catherine Ceylac about his arrest by the Gestapo, when he was a child, during the Second World War. He talks about the repression of Jewish children and how he managed to escape, in Bordeaux, to escape death.
Valérie Expert speaks with Boris Cyrulnik, a neuropsychiatrist, who publishes "A wonderful misfortune". He denounces the "shrink misery" which considers "that at 3 years everything is played, at 6 years everything is ruined". For him, a painful ordeal lived in childhood does not necessarily prevent "becoming human" when one manages to overcome the trauma.
Boris Cyrulnik, neuropsychiatrist, explains to Catherine Ceylac, on the occasion of the release of his book "Autobiography of a scarecrow", why, for a long time, he could not talk about what happened to him, as a child, during the Second World War. Confronted with disbelief or "sadistic gluttony", he says he was forced to remain silent for 40 years.
Boris Cyrulnik, neuropsychiatrist, guest of the television news, is asked about the political consequences of the coronavirus health crisis. It outlines three possible solutions: the return of hyperconsumption and hypermobility and, with them, the likely arrival of a new virus in three years, the election of a "savior", or the choice of a cultural change that could lead to social improvement. His words are illustrated by images of medical staff in a hospital and people on their balconies applauding the caregivers.
[Source: France 3 Régions]: Is it the end of neon pink hams or Morteau sausages as we know them? Nitrites that colour these meats could be banned in France by 2025. This is the result of a parliamentary report tabled yesterday. These additives are suspected to be carcinogenic. On the producer side, it is incomprehension. Example in the Upper Doubs. A banal gesture in this butcher specialized in the sausage of Morteau and Montbéliard since 1992, now questioned. The object of discord, this famous white powder. Give a pinkish color, lengthen the shelf life and protect from disease like botulism, these are the main effetsof nitrite salt. A detailed report from the National Assembly this Wednesday advocates a ban on these additives considered dangerous. For the producer, without this salt, Montbéliard sausage would be a pale copy of itself. Joan Renaudot: "We would have a sausage to cook which would be gray with spots can be greenish and a preservation much shorter. Nitrates have always existed, there are some in vegetables, saltpetre in cold cuts has existed since cold cuts exist, we can not turn everything upside down for a fashion effect." Co-rapporteur of the text, the member for Haute-Saône does not understand the shield. It justifies its approach. Barbara Bessot Ballot: "the question was, are nitrite salts dangerous in the diet? And then what about practices? We know that glyphosate is good for nobody but at the same time we are still looking for alternatives to get out. It turns out that nitrite salts, we have the alternatives and there are already industries that can do without them.' The deputy introduced a law in mid-December to gradually ban these nitrite additives, the text will be examined in committee in the National Assembly from January 20.
Doucet, chemical engineer, representative of UFCS-UROC (Union Féminine Civique et Sociale et Union Féminine Civique et Union Féminine Civique et Union Régionale des associations de Consommateurs Sociale) explains why nitrites were added to the deli. She explains how before, the deli was prepared. It evokes the dangers of nitrites on the consequences in children. In front of her, Mr Delage, the director of the federation of agro-food industries recalls the role of nitrites in deli meats (especially against the deadly risk of botulism)
Report. WHO experts say that salt and nitrites used to preserve deli meats increase the risk of cancer. Reminder of the quantities recommended for the consumer. Meat is classified as probable carcinogens. Comments on factual images, illustration, infographic. Interviews of Laurence COMPAIN, sausage With truffle pâté; a consumer.
