Otitis media Treatment The child is treated with antibiotics, preferably amoxicillin when not known for any allergy to amoxicillin. The amoxicillin is administered for ten days. High-dose amoxicillin is administered in two divided doses of up to 80mg-90mg per kg per day (Hoberman et al., 2016). The dosage depends on the weight of the child. The child is administered with Tylenol acetaminophen liquid 160mg/5mls per kg to relieve pain. Amoxicillin-clavulanate 90mg/kg per day can also be used to treat the patient. Pathophysiology The essential factor in otitis media is the diminished functioning of the Eustachian tube (ET) because it forms part of the middle ear. The bacteria interfere with the mucosa of the middle ear, which further causes negative intratympanic pressure that further results in direct extension of bacteria to the middle ear via the ET from the nasopharynx, which causes the disease (Norhayati, Ho & Azman, 2017). Also, the contents of the esophagus can be regurgitated to the nasopharynx and enter the Eustachian tube into the middle ear, therefore, creating a mechanical disturbance that causes inflammation of the middle…

Federal Law Allowing Arrest for People Supporting Terrorism on Media It would be much better to support a federal law allowing enforcement of arresting individuals expressing support for violent terrorism on social media. Why? Because these individuals play a huge part in the continuation of illegal terror groups, planting destructive ideas in their minds and people around them. For instance, a person spreading and sharing information about a specific group wants to instill fear to the viewers and readers, which is the primary goal of the terrorists. It is a form of mass destruction weapon, reaching a considerable population, creating the panic, tense environment, having an apocalyptic mindset on the public, and creating a state of emergency to the public is the goal they want to achieve. A terrorist is a well-informed person, who knows that if he or she shares information through social media, then the data gets support say from a prominent politician, it will show that the individual has achieved the goal. If the state can create a policy under the federal law to allow him or…
Is Social Media Making You Lonely? I want to point out the factor that social media is the most significant contributor to loneliness in the United States. The advancement in the sector of technology is the main factor that also contributes to loneliness. Most of the people believe that development in technology enhances connectivity among people from different geographical places across the world. But, it indeed causes a massive disconnection of people from the world around them. The use of social media platforms has dramatically increased, and they are associated with a lot of disturbances and loneliness. For instance, the research that was carried out at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and Radboud University Nijmegen showed that most of the people enjoy the pleasure response to social media sites like Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, and Instagram than having a direct connection with people around them. Logos However, being exposed to the images on social media is one of the factors that also lead to loneliness. Most of the individuals try to compare themselves with others to the extent of grouping themselves to different…

Pros and cons of Social media The invention of social media revitalized the nature of social communications, offering the opportunity to create and share ideas through virtual networks. Due to the ease of access, social media platforms have broadly impacted the modes of lives of millions of users. There is, however, a debate on the impact of social media on real life communication. Social media negatively impacts people’s ability to engage in real life interactive discourses. As well, the positive effects supersede the cynical fact. Social media platforms are based on electronic gadgetry like phones and computers. Unlike real communication, these platforms do not offer face to face feel in an interactive discussion. It is argued that social media sabotages real conversation by eliminating the physical audience. Using social media hence affects the ability of a person to engage in authentic communication productively. The real audience enhances the development of communication skills among the parties, an aspect which is missing in the social media. Social media platforms are easily accessible. The increasing use of platforms like email, Facebook, Twitter, and…
Zoos as Media Throughout human history, human beings have always had a relationship with animals as part of their identity. Diverse cultures have differentiated beliefs and attachments to animals. While in the past, animals existed in their natural environments and freely interacted with humans on different occasions, in recent years, animals have increasingly been provided artificial shelters in zoos. This is especially the case concerning animals that are endangered or those that need help in any significant way. In this case, zoos and animal orphanages have become increasingly crucial avenues where vital animal information can be gathered regarding animal life and their relation to man. Human beings have a long history that closely relates to animals. The early man entirely relied on hunting and gathering activities, which was their way of life. The relationship that existed between humans and non-human animals was a natural predator-prey relationship. In the different historical periods, the human and non-human animal relationships were symbolic, and this has existed to date. With the technological developments and the change in the way of life has led to…
Communication and media Question one The internet protocol has been termed as the method by which information or rather a data is transferred through the internet from one computer to another. Each of the computers is known to have an IP address that is unique and identifies it differently from other computers. Its communication process entails data being broken down or rather parsed into small data in form of packets thatwould be transmitted through the Application Layer as well as the TCP layer containing the sender’s computer Internet address, the receiver’s computer address, and a portion of the message. Each packet is assigned a port number. Many programs may be using the TCP/IP stack and sending messages. For the transmission to be complete, individuals need to identify which program on the receiver’s endrequires to receive the message because it will be listening on a specific port. An Internet protocol (IP) address is assigned uniquely by network mostly using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).An IP address can be assigned to a host either dynamically as they can be changed later on…
Media Bias- A Case Study of Coronavirus (COVID 19) Media biascan be defined as the bias by news producers and journalists in the selection of media stories to cover, or the contents of the news reported. The emerge of the novel Coronavirus in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, has seen a protracted battle between western media and the Chinese authorities on the content aired, especially on the extent of fatalities and the efforts by the Chinese government to manage the new disease. Typically, media bias implies a widespread and pervasive bias that contravenes the standards of ethical journalism, rather than the perspective of individual journalists (Boyd-Barrett and Mirrlees,2020). However, just like the perceived media bias that has been associated with the reporting on the Coronavirus outbreak, the degree and direction of media bias in different countries are highly disputed. Reporting on the Coronavirus outbreak in China has seen the world witness contradicting reports on the origin of the virus, the response of the Chinese government to it and the containment measures taken to quarantine potential carriers of the deadly virus(Xiaoxiang,2020).…
