This is the re

10、sult of living in an environment where the level of green light increases in the summer. When the trees are full of leaves， our eyes need to adapt.

But a

16、 shortage of these essential health care workers could pose challenges in countries dealing with a growing number of COVID-19 cases。”One of the lessons I hope the world learns from COVID19 is that we must invest in nurses , said World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus d

17、uring a speech Tuesday in celebration of World Health Day.WHOs new ”State of the Worlds Nursing 2020” report has identified a global shortage of 5。9 million nurses。 Many of those gaps are found in Africa， Southeast Asia, the Eastern Mediterranean， and parts of Latin America.Among regions of the worl

18、d, the Americas have the highest density of nurses at 83。4 per 10，000 people, followed by Europe with 79.3 nurses per 10,000 people. In contrast， there are 8。7 nurses per 10,000 people in Africa, 15。6 nurses per 10,000 people in the Eastern Mediterranean region， 16。5 nurses per 10，000 people in Sout

19、heast Asia， and 36 nurses per 10,000 people in the Western Pacific.But there are also differences within regions。 In the Americas， for example, countries such as Brazil， Canada, Chile， and the US have a higher density of nurses at close to or over 100 per 10,000 people， distorting the regional avera

20、ge。 Many of the neighboring countries in the region have less than 50 nurses per 10，000 people。 In Haiti, there are only 3。8 nurses per 10,000 people.When based on country income， data in the report shows an unsurprising trend： The higher the income, the higher the nursing density. In low-income cou

21、ntries， the average density of nurses is 9。1 per 10,000 people, while the figure for high-income countries is 107.7 per 10，000 people.But training more nurses wont solve the problem, said Dr. Giorgio Cometto, WHO coordinator on human resources for health policies and standards。If the country lacks t

22、he economic capacity to employ them or to create economic opportunities for them to work as nurses 。. training more nurses can just go into the direction of making labor market imbalances, resulting in unemployment among nurses. And thats a huge wastage of human capital as well as financial resource

23、s， Cometto said。The key is balancing training with the creation of employment opportunities in rural areas where there are known health worker shortages。That may be easier said than done， especially among countries that are suffering from chronic or complex emergencies， in active conflict, or strugg

24、ling in the wake of conflict. But in these settings， the international aid community can arrange its assistance with national priorities and covering recurrent costs, such as salaries, within a specified period of time， Cometto said。8。How many nurses are needed according to WHOs new” State of the Wo

28、fishing boats。Researchers attached data loggers to the backs of 169 albatrosses （信天翁） in Indian oceans。 Weighing only 42 grams, the devices included a GPS, which enabled them to detect the presence and intensity of radar signals emitting from boats. That information was then sent by satellite， so th

29、e researchers could track the location of the birdsand thus the radaremitting boatsin real time。The scientists then cross-checked that data against the known locations of boats， collected from a system boats use to declare themselves, called the Automatic Identification System （AIS）。 And noticeable

30、differences appeared frequently.More than a third of the times the birds “loggers” detected radar signals, and therefore a boat， but no such boat appeared in the official logmeaning that the vehicles had likely switched off their AISsomething that probably happens in illegal fishing operations.The work suggests birds could be an effective boat-monitoring tool as long as illegal fishing operations dont target the birds.
