WHO declares mpox a global health emergency
Manage episode 436540009 series 35771
The World Health Organization has declared mpox, formerly Monkey Pox, a global public health emergency. A new strain of the virus has raised concerns due to its rapid transmission. Also, green tea is a major industry in Shizuoka prefecture, on Japan’s Pacific coast. Google “Shizuoka” and you’ll find images of hillsides covered in neat rows of bright-green tea bushes, with Mt. Fuji in the background. But that scenery is changing, with some tea farmers calling it quits and others scrambling to innovate for economic survival. And, a herd of artsy elephants is traveling with a message, as part of an exhibit. These are replicas of real-life elephants made by a community of artisans in southern India.
