gene therapy

Hello everyone, today I am going to talk about a new topic that I found interesting, gene therapy. But, what is it? Gene therapy is the modification and alteration of genes trying to solve an infinity of problems by modifying the genes of an individual. Lately, new methods have been developed to treat some congenital diseases or the ones in wich its cure is unlikely. Since the discovery of genetics, people has used this knowledge to improve the options of the code of life. It was first tryed in plants (area highly developed in transgenic foods) and in the present with animals and the human genome project there is talk of an emerging human research in innovative and questionable treatments from ethics. Is it necessary to sacrifice human lives for the development of therapies? Does some lives worth more than others? The answer to all of these questions were reached with the Progress of these biological technologies. The control of this knowledge and research is necessary because this is...

Education

Hello everyone today im going to talk about what i think about education. First of all I am going to talk about my experience. When I was a kid I did not know about the existence of private schools or universities, I atended a municipal technical school, there I received the best grades of my level without making the least effort. Also my behavior was considered one of the best. But in sixth grade my mother took me to take a test to get into another school telling me it was to improve my chances for a good future. Obviously I did not want to change school, becouse non of my friends were there, even so I took the test and stayed at this new school. This was a radical change because there was a lot of implements that my old one did not count on, also my grades dropped drastically and despite of not changing my attitude the teachers caught my attention countless times. Obviously the rules and requirements were different, this was a municipal school which selected people through a test an...

Religion

Hi everyone today I am going to talk about religion, what I think about it and my experience whit it. I reapect all religions and all believing person becouse of my own principles. But I have walked away from all of this, because during my life I have asked questions to myself and the answers always left me doubting. Ignoring the disappointing answers, my experience with religion is not that bad as it sounds. I went to a Catholic school until 6th grade and I had a lot of fun with the activities they did and I also liked to sing in the chapel, even though I'm not a good singer lol. I remember having to create drawings or crafts that were pretty fun to make, especially with colleagues with whom you had known each other for so long. But of course this is what I experienced as a child, when I grew up I started to observe strange attitudes outside the comfort zone I was in, such as extramist fanatics which leave a bad taste in the mouth and give a bad image of religion. This is all th...

What do I think about the health service?

I have always thaught that the health service of our country is awfull, but talking with a friend, who studies medicine, made me change my mind about this matter. Although I still believe that is far from being good, it has improved over the years, adapting to new problems, which are created by demographics and the increasing of deaths by diffrent kinds of sickness. All of this has made the health system change the model to a biopsychosocial one. Nevertheless, the system is stagnant by politics and economy interests. What could be a solution for this? My friend gave me an idea, it is about a single fund, including both health systems together, the public and the private ones. In this way, health can continue to grow in solidarity and not as a subsidiary state, as it is today, also this will make the future achieve an economicaly stable, particitive public health. Together with the solidarity of paying what, and be cared for. with what is needed not like the current AUGE plan In solida...

The vote

The vote is the act where a person gives their preference or support to an idea or a political candidate. But, why is important to vote? Voting is basically the voice of people, voting makes us political actors, it allows us to express our opinions and take decisions in a democratic act. If we don’t use this right, we are letting others make the decisions for us, and this decisions are not necessarily good for most of the people. By the time we realize it, it is too late. We would have to wait a long time to change them or we may never be able to do so. Is important that we apriciate the right yo vote, because not everone has it and it doesen´t exist everywhere. We have to vote and choose people who can represent us and choose what is best for us. I think that people currently does not view the vote this way, because there is a general disgust towards politics, beacuse of the events that have occurred over the years. Nevertheless, today we are seeing more voters, which means an imporv...
