Finland experienced an exceptionally deep economic crisis during the first half of the 1990s. Within four years, output was reduced by more than 10% and the unemployment rate quadrupled to almost 17%. External shocks (the collapse of trade with the former Soviet Union in 1991, but also a sharp downturn in the OECD area), combined with a domestic banking crisis, led to a collapse of consumption and investment spending.

The best way to ensure that infants are not born with HIV or acquire it during breast-feeding is to provide HIV-positive women the care they need for their own HIV disease. Vertical transmission is certainly an issue where the false dichotomy pitting prevention and treatment against each other is truly nonsense—in studies where HIV-positive women get appropriate care, HIV transmission to infants is largely eradicated2 . Vertical transmission programs must be linked with HIV treatment programs.

W e recommend amendments clarifying the ethics committee’ s func- tions in relation to approving extensions to the applicable period of storage of gametes and embryos. The bill would ensure that the ethics committee made decisions about approving, changing, or cancelling extensions to storage periods in much the same way as it would make decisions on activities listed as requiring approval under the Act. Proposed new sections 10A to 10D and 28(1)(aaa) of the Act relate to the ethics committee’ s functions in dealing with storage issues.

Eighty percent of the respondents reported that their LTC communities did not have any training (either educational or exercise based) for their workforce in this area.

In one study by Chen et al., simulation biopsy strategies were conducted on whole-mount radical prostatectomy specimens from 180 patients and it was found that only 73% of cancers were detected by sextant biopsy (Chen et al., 1997).

The situation is far different for women and families in poorer parts of the world, however. The vast majority of the 1.5 million women with HIV who become pregnant each year in the developing world do not have access to all (or, often, any) of these vital services. Only about one-third of them receive even the least effective drug regimen: a single dose of the drug nevirapine for themselves and another for their newborns, a therapy that has been shown to be at best, just over 40 percent effective in preventing vertical transmission. Most have no access to or knowledge...

Nongovernmental organizations, though, reach more borrowers in total. The third column shows that nongovernmental organizations can claim about one-half of the 18 million customers in this data set, with banks claiming one-quarter.

Nevertheless, a cursory look at these self-reported barriers provides interesting information. Distance from a bank is a much greater barrier in rural areas, as expected. Technological and other innovations that help overcome this barrier of physical distance could pay off—potentially increasing the share of adults us- ing a formal account by up to 23 percentage points in Sub-Saharan Africa and 14 percentage points in South Asia.
