VENTILATOR INTERVENTION TECHNOLOGY ACCESSIBLE LOCALLY (VITAL)

NASA engineers have developed a new, easy-to-build high-pressure ventilator tailored specifically to treat COVID-19 patients.

About: The device, called VITAL (Ventilator Intervention Technology Accessible Locally), is designed to treat patients with milder symptoms, thereby keeping country's limited supply of traditional ventilators available for patients with more severe COVID-19 symptoms. VITAL can be built faster and maintained more easily than a traditional ventilator, and is composed of far fewer parts, many of which are currently available to potential manufacturers through existing supply chains. NASA is now seeking FDA approval for the device via an emergency use authorization, a fast-track approval process developed for crisis situations that takes just days rather than years.  Source : All India Radio ( Science & Technology) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore

India Credit Risk Fund

Amid the severe market dislocation and illiquidity caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund, the ninth largest in the country, has decided to wind up six yield-oriented managed credit funds, one of them being a credit risk fund.

About: Credit risk funds are debt funds that play on the principle of high-risk-high-reward. By definition, credit funds invest 65 per cent of the portfolio in bonds that are AA rated or below, and investors must be aware that they are investing in schemes that are investing in lower-rated papers. While higher-rated bonds of companies are more secure and offer lower interest rates, credit risk funds generally invest in lower-rated bonds which offer higher return but also carry a higher risk. Fund managers can lower their risk by following a higher diversification strategy.If the scheme is diversified significantly on the asset side, then even if there is a default by one or two companies, the entire portfolio does not get affected. if the scheme is well diversified on the liability side, then even if one or two investors seek redemption, it does not push the fund house to sell.  Source : Indian Express ( Economy) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore

Asymptomatic Transmission, the Achilles’ Heel of Current Strategies to Control Covid-19

There is debate whether some people can spread COVID-19 before showing symptoms themselves?

About: The WHO recognises three stages of COVID-19 transmission — asymptomatic, presymptomatic and symptomatic. Symptomatic transmission refers to transmission from a person while they are experiencing symptoms. Presymptomatic transmission is when a person spreads the disease before symptoms appear, and eventually develops symptoms themselves. Asymptomatic transmission refers to transmission of the virus from a person, who does not develop symptoms. There are few reports of laboratory-confirmed cases who are truly asymptomatic, and to date, there has been no documented asymptomatic transmission.  Important Info : • According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is clear that both presymptomatic and asymptomatic transmission of the coronavirus are possible.  Source : Indian Express ( Health ) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore PRACRITI Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi have developed a web-based dashboard for predicting the spread of COVID-19 in India.

About: The mobile-friendly dashboard, PRACRITI (PRediction and Assessment of CoRona Infections and Transmission in India) gives detailed State-wise and district-wise predictions of COVID-19 cases in India for a three-week period, which is updated on a weekly basis. PRACRITI provides the R0 values of each district and State based on data available from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, National Disaster Management Authority, and the World Health Organization. Important Info : R naught? A key parameter of interest on COVID-19 is the basic reproduction number (R0), pronounced ‘R naught’ and its countrywide variability.R0 refers to the number of people to whom the disease spreads from a single infected person. For instance, if an active COVID-19 patient infects two uninfected persons, the R0 value is two.Reduction of R0 is key in controlling and mitigating COVID-19 in India.

RED, ORANGE AND GREEN ZONES -COVID-19

Government has categorised the country into three zones namely red, orange and green zones depending on the number of coronavirus cases during the lockdown period.

About: The green zones are those where no new cases were reported over 28 days since the last case tested negative. The orange zones are those with a few cases, and the red ones have a large number of cases. The government suggests opening up the green zones first. But these zones may have many asymptomatic cases, that is, infected people with no symptoms.  Source : Indian Express (Health) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore INTERNATIONAL CHERNOBYL DISASTER REMEMBRANCE DAY In 2016 the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution designating 26 April as International Chernobyl Disaster Remembrance Day.

About: The Chernobyl disaster was a nuclear accident that occurred on 26 April 1986, at the No. 4 reactor in the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, near the city of Pripyat in Ukrainian SSR. An explosion at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986 spread a radioactive cloud over large parts of the Soviet Union, now the territories of Belarus, Ukraine and the Russian Federation. Nearly 8.4 million people in the three countries were exposed to the radiation. It is considered the worst nuclear disaster in history and is one of only two nuclear energy disasters rated at seven—the maximum severity—on the International Nuclear Event Scale, the other being the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan.  Source : United Nations ( Disaster Management) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore

WORLD INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY DAY 2020

World Intellectual Property Day 2020 is being celebrated on April 26 with the theme “Innovate for a Green future”.

About: World Intellectual Property Day is observed annually on 26 April. The event was established by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in 2000 to "raise awareness of how patents, copyright, trademarks and designs impact on daily life." 26 April was chosen as the date because it coincides with the date on which the Convention Establishing the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) entered into force in 1970.  Important Info : World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)? What is it? WIPO is the global forum for intellectual property (IP) services, policy, information and cooperation.Type: WIPO is a specialized agency of the United Nations.Established in: 1967. Headquarters: Geneva, Switzerland.Membership: 193 member states.Parent organization: United Nations Economic and Social Council.  Source : WIPO ( International) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore CHEMICALS AND PETROCHEMICALS INDUSTRY Union Minister for Chemicals and Fertilizers congratulated the chemicals and petrochemicals industry on becoming the topmost exporting sector of the country for the first time.

About: He informed that during April 2019 to January 2020, the export of chemicals grew by 7.43 per cent over previous corresponding period. The total export of chemicals during this period reached 2.68 lakh crore rupees which constitutes 35 per cent of the total exports.  Source : All India Radio ( Economy ) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore g-CNQDs Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST), an autonomous institute under the DST has found a low-cost metal-free nanomaterial for visible light microbial disinfection which can be an alternative to silver and other metal-based materials.

About: Carbon Nitride Quantum Dots (g-CNQDs) are found to be a viable anti bacterial alternative to metal/non-metal semiconductors and expensive silver, thus making it cost-effective. These nanomaterials possess enhanced biocidal activity attributed to larger surface area of g-CNQDs having more reactive sites and optical absorption both in the ultraviolet and visible region. The g-CNQDs have the ability to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). The ROS rapidly interact and damage the immediately available biological macromolecules such as lipids present on the cell membrane or envelope and proteins present on the cellular surface, towards inactivation of the microorganism. The dependence on visible light is also advantageous over regular ultraviolet mediated disinfection, which requires cautious handling of the UV light-emitting devices. This technology will also be simultaneously explored for antiviral efficiency considering its relevance to the current scenario.  Source : PIB ( Science & Technology ) Vignan IAS Coaching institute in Bangalore SALEKI Amid the countrywide lockdown, the National Board for Wildlife (NBWL) has recommended coal mining by North-Easter Coal Field (NECF), a unit of Coal India Limited in Saleki proposed reserve forest land, a part of an elephant reserve in Assam About: The National Board for Wildlife (NBWL) is under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC).
