  Hepatitis B infection is a worldwide healthcare problem, especially in developing countries. It is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is commonly transmitted via body fluids such as blood, semen, and vaginal secretions and is mostly transmitted from mother to child during birth and delivery, as well as through contact with blood or other body fluids during sex with an infected partner, unsafe injections, or exposures to sharp instruments. Hepatitis B is a “silent epidemic” because most people do not have symptoms when they are newly infected or chronically infected. Thus, they can unknowingly spread the virus to others and continue the silent spread of hepatitis B. A safe and effective vaccine that offers 98% to 100% protection against hepatitis B is available. Preventing hepatitis B infection averts the development of complications including chronic disease and liver cancer. The burden of hepatitis B ...

  Having sex during your period is usually frowned at. Most people will not agree to have sex during your period because of some concerns. But in recent years, feminists began a movement to demystify menstrual blood and to remove the age-long taboo and shame that surrounds menstruation. If you do not think menstrual blood is disgusting, then sex during her period might be possible. So, what are the pros? 1. Eases menstrual pain Menstrual pain is the sometimes unfortunate consequence of being on your period. It has been proven that vaginal stimulation reduces cramps. Sex releases endorphins plus the muscles of your uterus contracting provides some relief. 2. You have extra lubrication Because of how wet the vagina is (as a result of blood), penetration is easier. 3. Sex is (more) enjoyable For most women, the hormonal change from before their menstrual period (ovulation) and during their period can cause their libido to be heightened. The cons The mess Blood everywhere, on your beds...

  Though MTN has expressed readiness to launch the Fifth-Generation (5G) network this month, at most this quarter, Mafab Communications has, however, got a five-month extension for the rollout of the service in Nigeria.    The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) handed the August 24 (Wednesday) roll-out date to both MTN and Mafab Communications, after both emerged winners of the 3.5GHz spectrum licence last December and had subsequently coughed out about $550 million as early as February into Federal Government's coffer.    At the weekend, a source at MTN said that the firm is ready and may start with a demo on or after August 24.     According to the source, more equipment are coming in already and will be moved to the different sites, “as full commercial launch should be before the end of the year.” Recall that in December 2021, after 11 rounds of bidding that lasted eight hours, Mafab and MTN Nigeria emerged the two successful winners...

The Brazil international will be at Old Trafford on Monday evening to watch their Premier League match against Liverpool after joining on a fee around £59.5 million.
