Seasonal flu outbreaks can occur as early as October and last well into May. One of the easiest ways to protect yourself is to keep your immune system healthy with a diet rich in antioxidants.

Abdullahi disclosed this  at a one-day forum of the customs and textile value chain stakeholders ”I am doing my duty diligently and I have no fear for anybody. And I want to assure you that the day I am asked to compromise, I will rather choose the path of honour because I have a name to protect. I would rather leave but I am sure the government of today is a government of rule of law, it is a government that has a passion for the development of this country.” he said.
The customs boss accused some law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies of aiding the activities of smugglers across the borders ‘’We have bad eggs, the people who are doing this business together with these people (smugglers). And unless we put ourselves together and fight the evaders and unscrupulous elements among our society – 98 per cent of crime detection in the world are done through information. You can call a person and send him to do a particular job. If you don’t monitor through the information of his own activities, then get ready for disappointment.

FeTal MaTernAl Circulations

Foetal Circulation

Prior to birth the foetus is not capable of respiratory function and thus relies on the maternal circulation to carry out gas, nutrient and waste exchange. The foetal and maternal blood never mix, instead they interface at the placenta. Consequently the liver and the lungs are non-functional, and a series of shunts exist in the foetal circulation so that these organs are almost completely by-passed.

Shunt 1: The Ductus Venosus

Oxygenated blood travels from the placenta via the umbilical vein and most of it bypasses the liver by way of the ductus venosus. The ductus venosus links the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava and the flow of blood is controlled by a sphincter, enabling the proportion travelling to the heart via the liver to be altered.

Shunt 2: The Foramen Ovale

The foramen ovale is an opening between the two atria enabling blood to be channelled directly into the systemic circulation thereby bypassing the lungs. The septum secundum directs the majority of the blood entering the right atrium through the foramen ovale into the left atrium. Here it mixes with a small volume of blood returning from the non-functional lungs via the pulmonary veins.
