Health / Fight Corona Virus With Social Media by princy604: 10:08am On Jan 27, 2021
Social media abounds with misinformation and conspiracy theories about vaccines. Some sources suggest that they can cause autism or are full of dangerous toxins. Yet others believe they are a plot to control society.

Given the ability of vaccines to prevent disease and save lives, public health experts say it’s very important that unfounded beliefs such as these are wiped out.
Public health experts around the world have long fought to dispel such myths by educating people with the facts.
Now, a new study says that social media fact-checking may play a valuable role in these efforts.
The study found that fact-checking labels on misinformation helped people view vaccines in a more favorable light.
For the study, the researchers tested to see the effects of the use of fact-checking labels.
Over 1,000 people with varying levels of “vaccine hesitancy” from around the United States were involved in the study.
A mock Twitter account was used to display several different misinformation messages covering five vaccine types and five categories of 13 fact-checking sources.
The researchers used alternating fact-checking labels from various sources, including the media and organizations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
What they found was that the people who were shown fact-checking labels were more likely to have a positive view of vaccines than those who saw the misinformation alone.
The study authors suggest that something as simple as tagging the information as false and linking to a credible source can be effective in changing attitudes about vaccines.
They recommend that ideally this should be done by the social media company itself in conjunction with institutions like the World Health Organization (WHO).
“There’s a lot of misinformation out there, so we need to do everything we can to help people find credible sources of information about COVID-19 vaccines and feel confident in their decisions.
“In general, health agencies run by the federal government and international public health organizations are credible sources of vaccine information,” he noted. These include:
WHO.
CDC.
National Institutes of Health.
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Many academic institutions and large healthcare organizations are also credible, such as the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and accredited universities and health systems.
People should also look carefully at dates because information can change rapidly as more research is conducted.
In addition, look for links and references to peer-reviewed research and original, credible sources.
After educating ourselves, it’s important to help our friends and family find good quality information, point them to credible information sources.
When friends and family share information, we should ask them where it comes from and check whether the source is credible.
Credible information may not be accessible to some, for example, if they don’t speak English, or they don’t have access to a computer or other resources.
So, it is important for us to ensure vulnerable individuals and communities have access to credible information as well.
Let’s use our social media accounts to share credible information. What’s your thought on this?

Agriculture / The Step-by-step Okra Farming Process by princy604: 7:36pm On May 28, 2018
Okra is a tender heat-loving vegetable that grows 4 – 7 feet tall. The plant produces green and sometimes red seed pod which is harvested when 3 to 5 inches long and sometimes longer. The plant is easy to cultivate as you will learn from this okra cultivation guide. Although, like every other farming process, okra cultivation requires a lot of commitment, dedication, and of course good information to be successful.

Okra is an economically important vegetable crop of many countries in Africa, including Ghana, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Egpyt and many others. It has the nickname “lady’s finger” and it is sometimes called “gumbo” in most other places. Farmers growing okra for profit do so to meet both domestic and foreign market demands.

What to Expect from this Okra Cultivation Guide (Objectives)

At the end of this guide, you will become familiar with the different varieties of okra, the method of producing okra starting from land preparation to harvest and through to storage. In addition, you will be informed about the different pest and diseases that affect okra and how to curb them. You will also know the health benefits of eating okra and many more.
Health Benefits of Okra
1. Okra helps to control Hunger

Okra is loaded with soluble fiber that makes you feel full faster and for longer. This controls hunger and keeps your calorie intake in check, as a result, achievement of your weight loss goals become possible.

2. It is loaded with vital nutrients that can curb malnutrition.

Eradication of malnutrition becomes possible with okra because the pods are loaded with fiber, protein, iron, calcium, and zinc which are essential nutrients for the body.



3. Okra seeds contain antioxidants that can delay fatiguing

Flavonoids and polyphenols contained in okra seeds promote glycogen storage in the liver. As more glycogen (body fuel) is stored in the body, it implies that you will not get tired quickly.

4. Vitamin A contained in okra helps to improve eyesight

Okra contains vitamin A and beta-carotene that are essential nutrients for maintaining good eyesight. These nutrients are known to prevent eye-related diseases and protect against age-related eye disorders.

5. Prevents H. pylori infections and gastritis

Okra juice prevents the bacteria that causes inflammation (gastritis) from binding with the surface of the stomach lining. H. pylori infection is peculiar to children between 2 to 5 years old, so it is advisable you feed them with okra regularly.

6. Okra provides calcium and magnesium for the body

Okra has been shown to be a rich source of calcium and magnesium. Eating okra helps to curb both magnesium and calcium deficiency.
