In litigation, a common defense strategy involves attributing injuries to a preexisting condition rather than to medical negligence.

The defense might argue that the injuries were inevitable due to the preexisting condition, thereby absolving the medical practitioner from liability…

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 22 2005 (IPS) – The panel discussions and debates at a regional conference here on sexual health, on the weekend, were a world away from Channa and Sophea s daily environment-the din of music, clients chatter and unwanted advances at the restaurant in Cambodia where they work as beer promoters.
Beer promoters try to push beer on patrons at restaurants, clad in skimpy outfits. But making a living is not easy because the majority are paid according to the number of drinks they sell.

Their work also puts them in what activists-including those that attended the Third Asia-Pacific Conference on Reproductive and Sexual Health, Nov. 17-20 call a risky environment.

Channa said, she sometimes accepted money from male clients in return fo…

PENANG, Malaysia, Dec 23 2005 (IPS) – From the outside it appears like any other private medical clinic, though a little shabby. But a closer look reveals something unusual.
First, the patients are predominantly male adults. Every few minutes one of them walks into the clinic, steps up to the counter and produces a card or booklet. Words are exchanged. The patient then walks into an adjoining room and less than a minute later, walks out.

What happens inside the room is anyone s guess. But the managers of two drug rehabilitation drop-in centres told IPS that certain private general practitioners are dispensing legitimate drug substitutes and potentially dangerous though also legitimate substances to drug addicts a little too freely.

WASHINGTON, Feb 8 2006 (IPS) – A World Trade Organisation decision that called European safety bans on genetically modified food illegal under its global trade rules could usher in a new phase of potentially hazardous Frankenfoods worldwide and further erosion of local protections, say environmental and advocacy groups.
The groups urged the European Union to place human health and environmental safety first and continue to resist allowing imports of genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

The long-awaited landmark ruling on the EU s six-year embargo on genetically engineered crops could affect millions of farmers and consumers around the world and billions of dollars in trade.

The United States, the main plaintiff in the case, along with developing n…

BUENOS AIRES, Mar 14 2006 (IPS) – How strong of a role do family habits play in the recurrence of bouts of asthma or diarrhea in children? Are repeated accidents in a school related to flawed building design? Are there links between learning disabilities and pollution?
To answer these and other questions, Argentina s Ministry of Health and the Environment and the city of Buenos Aires Secretariat of the Environment have begun setting up pediatric environmental health units (known here as UPAs), run by multidisciplinary teams specialising in child environmental health.

The first UPA is operating in the Pedro de Elizalde pediatric hospital in Buenos Aires, and teams have also begun working in three other hospitals in the capital and in several provinces. …
