Reemergência de infecções

Oswaldo Paulo Forattini¹

Abstract: Nos últimos decênios, a nossa população tem sido afligida pela reemergência de infecções supostamente abolidas de nosso convívio. Tais são a dengue e a cólera, para não dizer da malária e da febre amarela, as quais, ao menos potencialmente, ameaçam vir a se instalar nas regiões mais desenvolvidas, ou seja, no que poderíamos chamar de "primeiro mundo tupiniquim".

One of the fi rst books that he had the pleasure of receiving as a gift from his mother, on his twelfth birthday, was a copy of The Divine Comedy, written in archaic Italian.Because he was the only child of a couple without any family in Brazil, and because of the intellectual training that he received with his parents' encouragement, he became passionate about literature, history, classical music and arts. From a very young age, he would go to concerts at the Municipal Theater of São Paulo on Sundays, and he would listen to classical music every day. In this way, he was able not only to identify the composer, but also the orchestra and soloist. Nonetheless, he also enjoyed other kinds of music, such as jazz, blues and regional music and used to read and write poetry.
