In this video by the World Health Organization we will demonstrate how to collect oropharyngeal specimens by health workers for the diagnosis of COVID-19 in adult patients.
As we age, we develop wear and tear of all of our joints, including in our feet and toes. Also known as Hallux Rigidus, arthritis of the great toe joint can cause you pain. Over time the cartilage in your big toe joint can get worn down, which can cause narrowing of the joint and can also cause bone spurs to form.
Podiatrist (foot and ankle surgeon) Dr. Jennifer Boeri discusses how arthritis progresses, how it causes pain, how arthritis is diagnosed and what treatments are available at different stages.

Arthritis is the wear of the normal lining or cartilage of the joint and can occur in any or multiple joints around the foot and ankle.
In most people, there is no definitive cause and probably relates to the enormous stresses across the joint even when walking.
We’ve asked expert orthopaedic surgeon Mr Paul Hamilton to explain what arthritis of the foot feels like and how it can be treated.

“GAS or streptococcus pyogenes is the most common bacterial cause of acute tonsillitis.
Here is a mouth with pharyngotonsilitis, inflammation of both the pharynx and tonsils. Here is a photo of bacterial tonsillitis. Pharyngotonsillitis caused by GAS is sometimes referred to as strep throat. The majority of episodes of pharyngitis are caused by viral infections which are usually treated conservatively. However, early recognition of s.pyogenes is important since failure to appropriately treat strep throat may lead to GAS complications. Unfortunately, distinguishing between viral and bacteria can be difficult.
The group a streptococcus are beta haemolytic cocci able to produce some exotoxins and also contain many surface antigens that play a vital role in its pathophysiology such as m proteins. Transmission of strep throat is through saliva and nasal secretion from an infected person.”
