Dr. Joel Kettner, chief medical officer, said Thursday the province was alerted to a cluster of cases of severe respiratory illness in Mexico from Canada's integrated outbreak surveillance system on Monday. The cause of the illness is unknown and Kettner said scientists from Winnipeg-based National Microbiology Lab are helping investigate the potentially infectious disease that has struck adults between the age of 25 and 44 in south and central Mexico. Dr. Ricardo Lobato de Faria, acting head of Winnipeg's emergency medicine program, said triage nurses and doctors have been warned to look for younger patients who are severely ill. He said minor coughs, colds, and flu-like symptoms are not what they're looking for. Health-care workers will flag as an immediate concern anyone with an undi...
Residents have been told to avoid public gatherings and stay home if they're sick to stop the spread of the disease. "There was a spike in the number of cases brought to the nurses' station with flu-like symptoms," [David McDougall] said. "It was a red flag. He said community leaders are trying to quell public fear and keep residents from panicking. "There's a respiratory problem and of course that's always a concern," McDougall said. "We're trying to figure out what the best response is."

Passengers aboard a Via Rail train involved in a health scare in northern Ontario were a little weary but in good spirits when they arrived in Toronto early Saturday -- some 11 hours behind schedule after an onboard death and multiple reported illnesses triggered a full-scale biohazard response. We took it pretty much in stride," he said. "Some people were probably slightly anxious, but Via was very good and did their best to keep us informed. Medical teams in biohazard suits descended on the Vancouver-Toronto train Friday morning in Foleyet after an 86-year-old woman died in a washroom and six Australian tourists who boarded in Jasper, Alta., reported feeling ill with respiratory and flu-like symptoms.

CO can be found in foundries, blast furnaces, mining, gas works, refuse plants, and such processes as chemical synthesis, carbide and formaldehyde manufacturing, and acetylene welding in enclosed areas. Finally, the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health says a level of 1,500 ppm is immediately dangerous to life and health. Since CO exposure can aggravate heart disease (as well as anemia and respiratory illnesses), those affected might experience chest pains.

Other personality characteristics may promote healthy and proenvironmental behaviour. For example, conscientiousness is associated with health behaviours such as safer driving habits, better diet, and exercise (Booth-Kewley & Vickers, 1994). More conscientious, open, and future-thinking people report more proenvironmental attitudes and behaviour (Ebreo & Vining, 2001; Lindsay & Strathman, 1997; Nisbet, Zelenski, & Murphy, in press), and individual differences in connectedness to the environment predict ecological attitudes and behaviour (Mayer & Frantz, 2004; [Elizabeth K. L. Nisbet] et al., in press; see Armitage & Conner, 2000; Rosen, 2000, for health behaviour reviews; see Bamberg & Moser, 2007, for a review of environmental behaviour). The Theory of Plann...
