Israel’s Health Ministry announced on Thursday that it had discovered a case of the monkeypox virus for the first time in 2023. According to the Israeli health ministry, a man in his fifties who travelled from Portugal to Israel developed the ailment despite being immunized against the virus.

Vaccinated people may get the sickness if others around them have a high viral load, according to the health ministry. An epidemiological study indicated that no one else had contact with the man who was exposed to the monkeypox virus.

Anyone who had travelled abroad and returned home with a fever and a blistering rash was recommended to see a doctor by the health ministry. 

Most people are not at risk of the monkeypox virus, but males who have sex with other men, particularly those who travel to outbreak areas, or people who have several sexual partners, or people who attend huge parties or have sex at certain places, are at high risk.

The symptoms of the sickness, or monkeypox virus, are milder in vaccinated people than in unvaccinated people. As a result, it is critical to get vaccinated, especially during the summer and before travelling overseas.

According to the epidemiological study, there were no other people who were in contact with the man and were exposed to the virus. Those who return from overseas or foreign countries with a fever and a blistering rash should see their personal physician and seek medical treatment, according to the Health Ministry.

According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the virus can enter into the body through broken skin, the respiratory tract, the eyes, the nose, and the mouth.

-
The visit of H.H Sheik Khaled bin Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi to India is more than just a mere ceremonial occasion; this visit stands as a clear testimony of the longevity and dynamism of UAE-India relations. This association has become complex over time involving not just the economy but also major concerns such as sustainable development, trade, climate action etc. The dynamic relationship between the two nations has been redefined from their historical links into contemporary strategic alliances which makes this visit a natural follow-on from long-standing ties. Relationship between UAE and India are very historical in nature that started during the time when Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan was the founder of UAE, whereby his coming to India in 1975 established strong cultural and diplomatic ties. This has been done through several high-profile exchanges including the signing of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement in 2017 which made these...

The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area. However, this recent endorsement—a fact which received little attention—shows that there is now greater strategic flexibility and demonstrates how committed UAE is towards ensuring it stays clear from any possible Chinese influence if it wants to become one of our most reliable partners. The timing for G42’s bold distribution of these Nvidia chips could not be better. With worldwide AI rivalry heating up after the advent...
