#COVIBOOK-Supporting and reassuring children around the world
This short book is created to support and reassure our children, under the age of 7, regarding the COVID-19. This book is an invitation for families to discuss the full range of emotions arising from the current situation. It is importa...nt to point out that this resource does not seek to be a source of scientific information, but rather a tool based on fantasy. My recommendation is to print this material so children can draw on it. Remember that emotions are processed through repetitive play and stories read multiple times. Share COVIBOOK and help ease kiddo's anxiety all over the world.

La hemorragia posparto (HPP) se define comúnmente como la pérdida de sangre
de 500 ml o más en el término de 24 horas después del parto. La HPP es la causa
principal de mortalidad materna en países de ingresos bajos y la causa primaria de
casi un cuarto de todas las defunciones maternas en ...todo el mundo. La mayoría de las
muertes provocadas por HPP ocurren durante las primeras 24 horas después del parto:
la mayoría de estas podrían evitarse a través del uso profiláctico de agentes uterotónicos
durante el alumbramiento y mediante un tratamiento oportuno y apropiado.
Mejorar la atención de la salud de las mujeres durante el parto para prevenir y tratar la HPP
representa un paso necesario para el cumplimiento de los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio.
Por lo tanto, el objetivo primario de esta directriz es proporcionar los cimientos para el
desarrollo estratégico de políticas y programas necesarios para garantizar la implementación
sostenible de intervenciones eficaces para reducir la carga global que representa la HPP.

mnesty International’s annual report on the state of the world’s human rights in 2021, published in March 2022, shows that promises to “build back better” after the Covid-19 pandemic were little more than lip service. Hopes of global cooperation withered in the face of vaccine hoarding and c...orporate greed.
Governments suppressed independent and critical voices, with some even using the pandemic as a pretext to shrink further the civic space. New and unresolved conflicts erupted or persisted. Those forced to flee were subjected to a litany of abuses, including pushbacks by countries in the Global North. But hopes for a better post-pandemic world were kept alive by courageous individuals, social movements and civil society organizations.

In Laudato Si’: On Care for Our Common Home, Pope Francis acknowledged that “numerous scientists, philosophers, theologians and civic groups have enriched the Church’s thinking” on sustainability. Hospitals and health care organizations may not be an obvious resource for ecological inspirati...on, but they have been responsible for shaping the contours of sustainability as well. While some Catholic health care organizations have already established measures to mitigate climate change, Laudato Si’ challenges all of Catholic health care to reflect the dual concerns for “God’s creation and the poor and outcast.” Concretely, two ways this can be achieved are by cutting carbon emissions and reducing water footprints.
