Texas Floods
It was neither stupidity, nor greed to locate the camp there. Yes, it was a flood zone, but much of the USA is a flood or windstorm or earth movement zone. The food risk was manageable. The japanese and even the mainland Chinese manage to do so. The national weather service is not to blame because the. flood risks were declared and warnings given. People did not listen and act responsibly. The federal government is not to blame because it was the state and the local community responsible for flood risk mitigation. This Texas business, Texas community, and the state itself chose not to have a risk management plan in place. A catastrophe risk management program would have seen; - The camp take precautions once the flood threat was declared. This would have had the children move to a safer place for the duration of the storm if a flood risk was declared. - The local county would have have a local warning system such as a siren or automated phone messaging system that would call all residents to warn of the threat and the. steps to take. The local county residents did not want to pay for the warning system. Now the locals can take responsibility for their own poor choices. - The state did not require a children's camp to have a catastrophe response plan. The state did not require the local county to have a catastrophe warning system in place. The failure to minimize the flood risk exposure rests solely with the local community and the state itself. - -

Health Thailand Urges Action as HIV Cases Exceed 500,000
That means roughly 0.7 percent of the Thai population is HIV positive, which is actually lower than the global average of about 1 percent in many countries. Worldwide, around 0.6 percent of adults aged 15 to 49 are living with HIV, so Thailand’s rate isn’t especially high. I believe Thai people can access PrEP, a group of medications used to prevent the spread of HIV infection, at very low cost or even for free through certain government programs. If more high-risk individuals in Thailand used these drugs, new infection rates could drop significantly. The Thai Red Cross offers PrEP at very affordable prices, but according to the Thai Red Cross AIDS and Infectious Diseases Research Centre website, fewer than 4,400 people in Thailand are currently taking these medications. That figure should be at least half a million high-risk individuals, and if it were, you’d see a dramatic drop in new HIV cases.
