Текст 1
Q.: Для обозначения Всемирной организации здравоохранения у наc используется сокращение ВОЗ, а каким сокращением пользуетесь вы?
A.: The abbreviation is WHO. WHO is a specialist UN agency which advises member-states on public health and the control of diseases. It makes war on the widespread plaques such as malaria, tuberculosis, syphilis and AIDS as well as on less common diseases including leprosy, typhus, polio, diphtheria, and cholera.
Q.: И каковы результаты?
A.: WHO first of all undertook a world-wide campaign to wipe malaria from the face of the earth. The campaign has been called "the greatest challenge in the history of humanity’s fight for health."
Q.: И была ли одержана победа в результате брошенного вызова этой распространенной болезни в жарких странах?
A.: One of the most important discoveries of this century is the simple fact that a mosquito that has bitten a malaria patient will rest on the nearest wall to digest the meal, so if the inside walls of the houses are sprayed with DDT, the disease carrying mosquitoes will get it on their feet and die. Due to this discovery almost 280 million people have been protected.
Very often WHO overlaps the work of FAO, Global Fund and Red Cross and they operate together.

about 60 percent of the fund’s awards have gone for AIDS programs, with 23 percent devoted to malaria and 17 percent to tuberculosis.

China is finally providing access to the WorldHealth Organizationin
Guangdong, the province where SARS is thought to have originated. But cooperation has come late. And WHO officials also say that China has vastly underestimated the number of cases in Beijing, reporting 37 when the real number is 100 to 200.
From the start, China seemed to fear information about SARS as much as the pneumonia itself. For four months, as SARS spread in Guangdong, China said nothing and told Chinese journalists not to write about it. That information phobia prevented hospitals and ordinary people from taking precautions and stopped the world from getting started on a treatment.
Текст 4
Restoring health care system
The World Health Organization has begun a $180 million program to jumpstart the health care system in Iraq to bring basic health services back to a prewar level, The New York Times reported from Geneva on Tuesday.
Calling the current health situation for the 25 million Iraqis quite tough, Dr. David Nabarro, executive director of Emergency and Humanitarian Action at the WHO, said his organization would help distribute cash to pay for garbage disposal, medicines, food for patients, payments to health care workers and basic building repairs required after the looting.

WHO official said the toll from the European heat wave was still incomplete; the agency is awaiting reports from some countries hit hard by the several weeks of soaring temperatures, including Germany.
* * *
WHO cited heat wave figures from several countries, including France's 14,802 deaths blamed on the heat spell. It said Italy had more than 7,000 "excess deaths in the over 65-year-old" group, compared with the same period a year earlier. Portugal had 1,300 heat wave deaths, WHO said.
* * *
Much of Europe suffered heavily in the summer heat wave because air conditioning is not very common at homes.
