<div class="field field-field-text"><p>More than 1,000 <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/palestine" target="_blank">Palestinians</a> in need of medical treatment have died since the war began due to <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/israel" target="_blank">Israel</a>'s ongoing restrictions on essential supplies entering the Gaza Strip, the director of al-Shifa Hospital has said, amid an “already collapsing health system.”</p>
<p>Dr Mohammed Abu Salmiya <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phgElNourYI" target="_blank">told Al Jazeera</a> on Wednesday that since the start of the ceasefire on 11 October, only 10 percent of needed medical supplies have reached the besieged enclave.</p>
<p>He said more than 350,000 patients with chronic health conditions are in urgent need of medication.</p>
<p>Hospitals receive the bodies of patients succumbing to their illnesses as a result of lacking medicine on a daily basis, he warned.</p>
<p>Without treatment, "their fate is death," he added. </p>

Quando salterà il tappo e uscirà il liquame che teneva ben schiacciato, ripensate a tutti quelli che vi hanno giurato e spergiurato che senza AI non sarebbe stato più possibile educare i nostri figli, curarci, mantenere in sicurezza i nostri confini o fare sostanzialmente alcunché.
“Concerns over an AI bubble bursting have grown lately, with analysts recently finding that it’s 17 times the size of the dotcom-era bubble and four times bigger than the 2008 financial crisis.”

Le ambulanze sono state sepolte nella sabbia. L’esercito ha ammesso di aver colpito le ambulanze perché – hanno fatto sapere – "si muovevano in modo sospetto". Secondo le Nazioni Unite, almeno 1.060 operatori sanitari sono stati uccisi nei diciotto mesi trascorsi da quando israele ha lanciato la sua offensiva a Gaza

The Italian health data system is broken
The population of Italy is projected to decrease by approximately 8% by 2050, falling from 59 million in 2022 to 54.4 million, due to increased ageing and a declining birth rate. By 2050, more than 35% of Italians will be older than 65 years, while children younger than 14 years will represent only 11.7% of the population. Without reforms, this demographic shift will strain health-care and social systems.
