The World Health Organization, or WHO,
3
says the use of surgical childbirth is growing worldwide.
4
worldwide.
5
Surgical childbirth is when a woman gives birth with the help of an operation,
6
also called a cesarean section.
7
WHO officials say the operation is becoming especially popular in what they call high and middle income countries.
8
Doctors may advise a cesarean birth,
9
also known as a c-section when normal childbirth would put the mother or the baby at risk.
10
But the WHO says it is concerned about the possible abuse of this life-saving surgery.
11
It supports c-sections when they are justified medically because it can save lives.
12
But the WHO says when c-sections are performed without medical need mothers and their babies are put at risk
13
health experts say the ideal rate for c-sections is between 10 and 15 percent of all births
14
New studies show when the rates go below 10%,
15
mothers and babies can die if the operation is not available.
16
Dr. Marlene Tenerman is director of the WHO's Department of Reproductive Health and Research.
17
She says that a C-section is generally a safe operation
18
and advisable when a traditional vaginal delivery puts the baby or mother in danger.
19
But she adds health risks do exist.
20
She says changing opinions and other lifestyle issues generally are the reason for what she calls an epidemic of C-sections.
21
These operations, she adds, are easier for doctors and hospitals because planned C-sections help them better control their planning.
22
She says many women choose a C-section because they do not want the pain of childbirth or the possible physical after effects.

25
The World Health Organization says about 3 billion people use solid fuels for heating and cooking food in their homes.
26
The practice creates dangerous indoor air pollution.
27
WHO officials say more than 4.3 million people die from household air pollution a year.
28
Most are in developing countries.
29
WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke,
30
heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia, and lung cancer.
31
women
32
and girls are the main victims the who says these diseases
33
can often result from high levels of fine particulate matter and carbon monoxide released by burning wood coal animal waste
34
crop waste, and charcoal.
35
Carlos Dora is with the WHO's Department of Public Health,
36
Environmental and Social Determinants of Health.
37
He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene fuel indoors.
38
He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation.
39
It only will pollute the outdoors.
40
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in sub-saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking.
41
It says huge populations in India,
42
China, and Latin American countries such as Guatemala and Peru also are at risk.
43
Agency experts say some safe and low-cost technologies are available.
44
In India,
45
you can buy an induction stove for about eight dollars
46
and in africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than one dollar
47
but this the agency says is just a start it is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels
48
and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating equipment For VOA Learning English,

From VOA Learning English, this is the health report.
51
Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the internet.
52
It also describes when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities.
53
Telemedicine has existed for a long time,
54
but the rise of smartphones,
55
tablets, and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels.
56
Some health care systems in the United States now offer virtual urgent care.
57
Patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home.
58
Diana Ray is a nurse educator in the northwestern state of Washington.
59
She recently demonstrated how virtual urgent care works works.
60
She used an iPad tablet and Skype,
61
the video chat service, to have a virtual appointment with Dr. Ben Green.
62
He had the patient describe her symptoms.
63
Dr. Green decided that the problem was a sinus infection after having her perform a facial exam that he demonstrated.
64
For medicine, he prescribed an antibiotic.
65
Dr. Green says about three out of four of his patients have health problems
66
that can be treated like this through virtual urgent care.
67
That means a video chat could replace a visit to the doctor's office in some cases.
68
Dr. Green treats patients by Skype for the Franciscan Health System,
69
based in Tacoma, Washington.
70
It operates hospitals and other health care facilities.
71
Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call.
72
That is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room,
73
a doctor's office, or an urgent care clinic.
74
After trying the video conference,
75
Diana Ray says she would have been happy to pay the $35
76
when she was when she was recently home with a bad cold.

Do you often start your day feeling tired?
80
Do you ever fall asleep at work?
81
Do you sometimes feel out of it,
82
as if your brain is still asleep even though your body is awake?
83
If you answered yes to any of these questions,
84
you might be suffering from what some researchers call social jet lag.
85
Till Roneberg is a German chronobiologist,
86
a scientist who studies how living things adapt to and are governed by periods of time,
87
such as lunar or solar cycles.
88
Mr. Roneberg says that many people are working at times that do not match their body's natural sleep-wake cycle.
89
This natural cycle is called the circadian rhythm.
90
Mr. Roneberg says, When your work schedule conflicts with your body's inner clock,
91
it can lead to extreme tiredness, similar to jet lag.
92
With jet lag, people feel extremely tired when they travel long distances in a short period of time by air.
93
Till Rohnenberg led researchers in a study at Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich, Germany.
94
They studied social jet lag among workers at a steel company in Europe.
95
Factory workers were given work times that matched their natural sleeping habits habits.
96
Changing the workers' schedules to fit their lifestyle made them feel more rested and improved their sense of well-being,
97
says Mr. Ronenberg.
98
But the people who worked at night did not report the same level of improvement.
99
Mr. Onenberg adds that employees who wake after better rest are more productive.
100
The journal Current Biology published the study.

The World Health Organization has declared the Pakistani city of Peshawar the world's largest reservoir of polio virus.
104
And WHO officials fear Pakistanis could face travel restrictions unless steps are taken immediately to stop the disease from spreading.
105
Researchers studied all the cases of poliomyelitis reported in Pakistan last year.
106
They found that almost every case could be linked genetically to the polio virus often reported in Peshawar.
107
Polio mainly affects children under five years of age.
108
The virus is passed through food or water.
109
The virus reproduces in the body and later invades the nervous system.
110
The disease can lead to loss of muscle control in part of the body.
111
The WHO study found that 90% of Pakistan's polio cases could be linked to the virus in Peshawar.
112
In addition, 12 of the 13 polio cases in Afghanistan were also linked to the city.
113
Elias Dori serves as the WHO's emergency coordinator for polio in Pakistan.
114
He says local officials need to take urgent action to strengthen polio vaccination campaigns.
115
He says the situation in Peshawar threatens the gains Pakistan has made against polio.
116
And he warned it could also harm international efforts to end the disease.
117
He also noted an increase in attacks on vaccination workers in Peshawar and other areas.
118
Taliban militants often attack polio workers in Pakistan.
119
The militants accuse them of being American spies,
120
or part of a plot to keep Muslims from having babies.
121
Most of the attacks have taken place in Peshawar.
122
The city is close to Pakistan's tribal districts.
123
Extremist groups operate bases in those areas.

Zambia has one of the highest rates of cervical cancer in the world.
127
90 of every 100,000 Zambian women get the disease.
128
The Zambian government recently launched a program to vaccinate schoolgirls against the human papillomavirus, or HPV.
129
The virus can cause cervical cancer.
130
HPV can spread through sexual contact.
131
The government hopes to vaccinate schoolgirls between the ages of 9 and 11 against HPV.
132
The program was launched in May at several schools.
133
One of them is the Kalingalinga Primary School in Lusaka.
134
About 100 students there received the HPV vaccine.
135
Euphrasia Mueshi Mutale is a teacher.
136
She was involved in efforts to inform the community about what was expected to be a difficult subject.
137
Ms. Mutali is happy with the early results.
138
She says people involved in the program met with parents
139
and teachers to tell them why it is good to vaccinate the girls.
140
She notes there have been no reported side effects from the vaccine,
141
like high body temperature or skin discoloration.
142
Mulindi Mwanahamantu is director of the Cervical Cancer Prevention Program in Zambia.
143
He says health officials wanted to vaccinate 25,000 girls,
144
but he says there was some resistance from churches and other groups.
145
Zambian and international health officials are working to end the resistance by educating communities about medical issues.
146
Zambia is third on the World Health Organization's list of countries with the highest death rates from cervical cancer.
147
The country also has the highest cervical cancer rate in Africa.
