Improved housing conditions can save lives, prevent disease, increase quality of life, reduce poverty, and help mitigate climate change. Housing is becoming increasingly important to health in light of urban growth, ageing populations and climate change. The WHO Housing and health guidelines bring together the most recent evidence to provide practical recommendations to reduce the health burden due to unsafe and substandard housing. Based on newly commissioned systematic reviews, the guidelines provide recommendations relevant to inadequate living space (crowding), low and high indoor temperatures, injury hazards in the home, and accessibility of housing for people with functional impairments. In addition, the guidelines identify and summarize existing WHO guidelines and recommendations related to housing, with respect to water quality, air quality, neighbourhood noise, asbestos, lead, tobacco smoke and radon. The guidelines take a comprehensive, intersectoral perspective on the issue of housing and health and highlight co-benefits of interventions addressing several risk factors at the same time. The WHO Housing and health guidelines aim at informing housing policies and regulations at the national, regional and local level and are further relevant in the daily activities of implementing actors who are directly involved in the construction, maintenance and demolition of housing in ways that influence human health and safety. The guidelines therefore emphasize the importance of collaboration between the health and other sectors and joint efforts across all government levels to promote healthy housing. The guidelines' implementation at country-level will in particular contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals on health (SDG 3) and sustainable cities (SDG 11). WHO will support Member States in adapting the guidelines to national contexts and priorities to ensure safe and healthy housing for all.
This is a biography of the British explorer Sir John Franklin. Theories - many wild - continue to abound on the fate of his final expedition, which set out for the Arctic in 1845 full of expectation but was never heard from again.
THE DEADLY SNOW, a Wyoming Ranch Family's Cold War Memoir.THE FRIGHTENING STORY of Preston and Laura Mitchell and their family in rural northeast Wyoming began with a snowstorm in April, 1959, that mysteriously killed 100 ewes and 300 newborn lambs and soon sickened the entire family. The Mitchells consulted local, state and federal veterinarians, to determine the cause. Meanwhile, the Mitchells and their six sons and daughters suffered from headaches, nosebleeds, dizziness, lethargy and bloody stools as they struggled to care for their dying flock of sheep. Later, they found hundreds of fish had perished in their farm pond, dozens of deer carcasses littered their pastures and squirrels and mice turned up dead in unexpected places. Less than a month after the storm, two men claiming to be rock hounds showed up at the Mitchell's remote ranch, asked many questions about their animals and family members and finally urged them to get their listless baby daughter to a doctor. Before long, another federal veterinary team arrived, that they were going to treat their sheep. They, too, asked questions for hours, but gave no answers about themselves. In fact, the visitors warned the Mitchells not to talk publicly about their health problems and assured them that they would never receive any compensation for their losses. Two years later, Dr. Alan Tench, a veterinarian from England, suggested that the Mitchells sue the federal government "for what they have done to you.". In early 1961, they filed a lawsuit for nearly $1 million in damages they claimed were caused by exposure to radiation poisoning as a result of government negligence. In response, government lawyers deposed the family's physicians, mocking their lack of knowledge of radiation poisoning. In early September, shadowed by armed men in dark suits, the Mitchell parents and their two oldest daughters were taken to the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, for intensive physical exams. In their reports, the doctors said they found no evidence of radiation poisoning. However, as one of the physicians who escorted the four Mitchells out of the hospital on dismissal, told Preston they had indeed been exposed to radioactive materials. In December, 1961, the federal court in Cheyenne, Wyoming, declared the Mitchells had failed to make their case and rejected it. Government authorities attributed the malady of the sheep to photosensitization (intense exposure to sunlight), possible consumption of selenium, a heavy metal found in the soil on the ranch, or poisonous weeds. They offered no explanation for the suffering the Mitchell family members endured.

Jet airliner operations in the United States began in 1958, bringing, it was thought, a new era of fast, high, safe, smooth, sophisticated travel. But almost immediately, the new aircraft were involved in incidents and accidents that showed jets created new problems even as they solved old ones. This book discusses five disasters or near-disasters of the early Jet Age, experiences which shook the industry, regulators and public out of early complacency and helped build a more realistic foundation for safer air transportation. Special attention is paid to the 1966 destruction of Braniff International Airways Flight 250 in Nebraska. Nearly two years of inquiry helped advance the understanding of jet operations in severe weather and saw the first use of cockpit voice recorder technology in an aviation accident investigation. In addition, a University of Chicago professor, Dr. Tetsuya "Ted" Fujita, conducted a more intensive investigation of the weather system which downed Flight 250. Dr. Fujita's already extensive knowledge of thunderstorms and tornadoes led to his creation of the Fujita Scale of Tornado Intensity, the F-scale that we hear about so frequently during storm season.
