  THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF GLOBAL RESPONSE TO COVID-19 BETWEEN THE DEVELOPING AND THE DEVELOPED COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD. https://youtu.be/Gq7WbwKCRaI INTRODUCTION:   Response to the COVID-19 pandemic varied widely between developing and developed countries because of the differences in resources, governance, healthcare infrastructure and other factors. Here are the comparative analysis: 1. VACCINATION COMPAIGNS: a. Developed countries had more resources to secure and distribute vaccines quickly. They had high vaccination rates, which contributed to lower case numbers and fewer severe results. b. Developing countries faced delays in vaccine distribution and access due to supply chain issues, limited resources and vaccine nationalism. This led to differences in vaccination rates.   2. ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE INFRASTRUCTURE: a. Developed countries generally had more healthcare systems with better hospital equipment, facilities and medical staff. And this allowed for better managem

PALM OIL ALTERNATIVES   INTRODUCTION: Sustainable palm oil alternatives are sought after because of social and environmental concerns associated with conventional palm oil production. Palm oil is used in several products, ranging from food to cosmetics, and its production has been linked to habitat destruction, deforestation, biodiversity loss, and human rights issues. Here, I will provide a brief explanation and reasons for sustainable palm oil alternatives: 1.   OIL FROM COCONUT: Coconut oil is a versatile alternative used in cooking and personal care products. Coconut oil is generally produced in a more sustainable manner compared to palm oil, with many smallholders involved in its production.   2. HIGH OLEIC SUNFLOWER OIL: This is a popular alternative to palm oil in food products. It is high in monounsaturated fats, making it a healthier choice. Its production is generally considered more sustainable and less harmful to the environment. 3.      OLIVE OIL: Extra virgin oliv

  THE ROLE OF ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES IN BLOOD TYPING AND TRANSFUSION:  INTRODUCTION:                                                        ANTIGENS To address this issue properly, I would like to give brief explanation of some of the key words in the topic. They are (a) Antigens (b) Antibodies (c) Blood typing (d) Transfusion. A. ANTIGENS: These are proteins or carbohydrates that are seen on the surface of red blood cell. They are (a) Endogenous antigens (b) Auto-antigens (c) Exogenous antigens (d) Tumor antigens. B. ANTIBODIES: Whenever the body observes the presence of antigens, the immune system would produce antibodies to fight against such foreign substance. Antibodies are also known immunoglobulin and her major function is to defend and mark antigens for neutralization or destruction by the immune system. These are the various types of antibodies. (a) IgE (b)IgM (c) IgG (d) IgD (e) IgA.   C. BLOOD TYPE: Blood is fluid-like substance that carries oxygen and nutrient round th

THE CONCEPT OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE INTRODUCTION By definition, trade is the process of buying and the selling of goods and services or the exchange of goods and services among people. While international trade is the exchange of goods and services among countries of the world. It can take the form of importation, exportation or entrepot.

It has been a driving force behind economic development and the exchange of goods and services across borders. The concept of international trade is deeply rooted in the history of human civilization, with nations and individuals exchanging goods and
