KS3/4 Science - Fighting HIV: The Issue
http://www.teachers.tv/video/2898 KS3/4 Science - Fighting HIV: The Issue (online video) In 2000, when Clint Walters was only 17, he found out he was HIV positive. The news shattered Clint and his family, but worse was to come: Clint's rapid progression to full-blown AIDS almost killed him. Thankfully modern combination therapies have restored Clint to almost full health. In this programme we meet Clint as he undergoes a charity walk to raise money for a clinic he is hoping to open, a weekend HIV testing centre for young people. In preparation for setting up his centre Clint meets with various top scientists to find out about the science behind HIV and AIDS. |

HeadLice Hotline
http://www.headlicehotline.org/ HeadLiceHotline is an informal group of volunteers who have already been through the nightmare of dealing with head lice. We know what it's like to have bugs crawling in our hair and in our children's hair. We've washed loads and loads of laundry. We've vacuumed couches and chairs and carpets and cars. We've picked nits until 2:00 am and felt like we were going to collapse from exhaustion. Give us a call. We'll do the best we can to help you through this very difficult situation known as head lice infestation. |

DfEE Advice (UK)
http://www.dfee.gov.uk/a-z/HEAD%5FLICE.html Head lice are tiny wingless insects which only live on the human head, and can only be passed on by direct head to head contact. Clean hair is no protection, although regular (weekly) hair washing and combing sessions offer a good opportunity to detect head lice and arrange treatment if discovered. Parents have the prime responsibility for checking their children’s heads and carrying out treatment. |

http://www.ed.gov/databases/ERIC_Digests/ed437368.html We teach children to throw their used tissues into the trash and to cover their mouths when they sneeze.
