BC Health Workers Stay Out 30.04.2004 BC health workers are holding to their protest lines, in defiance of Thursday's controversial back-to-work legislation. Bill 37 imposed deep concessions on 43,000 workers, including a 15 per cent wage rollback and no protection against the continuing contracting-out of jobs to low-wage private firms. See webvideo footage from the lines outside Vancouver General Hospital, where the Hospital Employees' Union announced its intention to keep fighting.

Water is a Human Right 30.04.2004 Billions of people still can't access basic water and sanitation services. Thousands die daily from preventable disease as a result. As the world's water crisis deepens, there's a drive to have water recognized as a human right - not a scarce commodity to be tapped for profit. But in 2002, Canada cast the sole vote against that idea at the UN Commission on Human Rights.

BC Liberals 'Attack' Women and Medicare 29.04.2004 Canada's largest union calls this morning's strike-breaking legislation in BC a frontal assault on women and public medicare. "If men held these jobs," said CUPE President Paul Moist, "and if [Premier] Campbell weren't determined to open up the health care system to foreign corporations, these workers wouldn't be on strike and the Liberals wouldn't be gutting their contracts."

BC Imposes Will on Health Workers 29.04.2004 Just four days in, BC's Liberals are legislating an end to job action by 43,000 health workers in 10 unions. Bill 37 imposes a 15 per cent wage rollback, a longer work week and no protection against the continuing contracting-out of jobs to low-wage private firms. The Bill received Royal Assent at 6:30 a.m. this morning after an all-night session. No word yet on whether health unions will defy the order - or whether other unions will move toward a rumoured general solidarity strike.

'Sida, paisatge interior': una altra mirada al VIH/sida 29.04.2004 Amb el títol Sida, paisatge interior, l'Associació Ciutadana Anti-sida de Catalunya presenta una selecció de fotografies sobre la normalització del malalt de sida a la societat espanyola. L'autora, Cristina Molina, defineix el seu treball com "una porta oberta a l'esperança" per a totes les persones que afronten el virus i el rebuig social que provoca. El reportatge, que s'exposa en versió on-line, ens apropa la realitat dels malalts de VIH i presenta individus anònims com a exemple de la lluita per la vida.

Politics Cripples Rural Healthcare in Bangladesh 29.04.2004 Since last year, around 80 percent of Bangladesh's population has had access to negligible health services because the government suspended the salaries of 80,000 health and family planning workers and the supply of drugs to healthcare centers in villages.

Tuhkarokkokuolemien määrä vähentynyt kolmanneksella 29.04.2004 WHO:n ja Unicefin mukaan tuhkarokon aiheuttamien kuolemien määrä maailmassa laski 30 prosenttia vuosina 1999-2002; sairaudesta eniten kärsivässä Afrikassa tulos oli jopa keskiarvoa parempi. Niistä sairauksista, joihin on kehitetty turvallinen ja halpa rokotus, juuri tuhkarokko tappaa silti edelleen eniten lapsia. Vuonna 2002 tautiin kuoli 610 000 ihmistä.

Generic Drug Bill: So Close, Yet... 29.04.2004 Finally, Bill C-9 will go to Parliament this week for third and final reading.

So Many Canadians Killed at Work 29.04.2004 Three Canadians will be killed today in the peaceful pursuit of a living. Thousands more will be made sick or disabled by their work. Each year, a thousand are killed, a million more injured. Today, on labour's international day of mourning, we reflect on the price so many have paid.

El acceso a los antirretrovirales en Bolivia 28.04.2004 En Bolivia, hablar de acceso gratuito y sostenido a los antirretrovirales es ilusorio y lejano a pesar de las promesas de los políticos. El Estado sólo busca donaciones de otros países pero no garantiza la continuidad del tratamiento, según afirma en este artículo Andrés Vargas, del Instituto para el Desarrollo Humano - SidAcción de Bolivia. Para Vargas, las autoridades se limitan a observar sólo el costo de los medicamentos y no ven el problema global a medio plazo que representa el VIH/sida: importantes costos hospitalarios por enfermedades oportunistas, disminución de la fuerza laboral, y aumento de niñ@s huérfanos, entre otros.

L'accés als antiretrovirals a Bolívia 28.04.2004 A Bolívia, parlar d'accés gratuït i sostingut als antiretrovirals és il·lusori i llunyà, tot i les promeses dels polítics. L'Estat només busca donacions d'altres països però no garanteix la continuïtat del tractament, segons afirma en aquest article Andrés Vargas, de l'Instituto para el Desarrollo Humano - SidAcción de Bolívia. Vargas adverteix que les autoritats es limiten a observar només el cost dels medicaments i no veuen el problema global a mig termini que representa el VIH/sida: importants costos hospitalaris per malalties oportunistes, disminució de la força laboral, i augment de nens orfes, entre altres.

28 avril: Jour de deuil international 28.04.2004 Il y a vingt ans, les membres du Comité national de santé et de sécurité du SCFP recommandaient la création d’une journée nationale dédiée à la mémoire de celles et ceux qui ont été tués ou blessés au travail. Aujourd’hui, le 28 avril est reconnu dans le monde entier comme le Jour de deuil international pour les travailleuses et les travailleurs qui ont été tués ou blessés au travail.

BC Health Strike Begins 26.04.2004 Ten unions representing 43,000 BC health-care workers began job action Sunday with a ban on overtime. They include dietary staff, orderlies, licensed practical nurses and group home workers.
