Or. Moira Mckinnon Saskatchewan is chief medical officer said the Hospital involved is in Lloydminster just East of the Alberta Boundary. Mckinnon said the government is still trying to determine How Many patients May be affected but she said there Are no plans to test people for hepatitis and his. The risk As i said is extremely Low and weave got experts working on exactly what that risk is said Mckinnon. We will move to testing if thatus necessary if the risk shows that thatus necessary. Mckinnon said practitioners at the Lloydminster Hospital which serves residents from both Saskatchewan and Alberta came Forward wednesday after a dirty syringe scare in Alberta. On monday the Alberta government announced that up to 2,700 patients will be tested for hepatitis and his after syringes were reused at a health clinic in High Prairie 260 Kilometres Northwest of Edmonton. The province said it Learned nurses at the High Prairie health Complex had been routinely injecting drugs into patients intravenous lines with the same syringe. A fresh syringe is supposed to be used each time to avoid any blood borne diseases from one patient being accidentally injected into the bloodstream of another. I think they were afraid of the situation in Alberta and they Are testing said Mckinnon. But since that incident they ave. Put an expert committee together and looked at the risk and again they ave determined that the risk is very Low. Mckinnon said the syringes in question were used in intravenous bags in Lloydminster. You re not actually penetrating the patient you re Only putting it into a tube that follows Down to the patients Arm. There is a theoretical risk that there can be some Back flow of that blood and contamination but its a theoretical risk Only she explained. Since 2001, the Center for disease control in the u. S. Has identified several hepatitis c outbreaks associated with syringe reuse. The Canadian press vigorous activity from running to chopping firewood or scrubbing floors protects women against breast cancer new research involving More than 30,000 women shows. But the Benefit was found Only in lean or Normal weight women and not heavier ones. Other studies already had shown women who have higher Levels of physical activity tend to have lower risks of developing breast cancer. But this time researchers dug further and looked at whether its the kind of exercise and intensity that matters. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Canadian women. An estimated 22,400 women will be diagnosed with the disease this year in Canada and 5,300 will die from it according to the Canadian cancer society. Researchers followed 32,269 women from 27 cities across the u. S. For 11 years. All were healthy and free of chronic disease at the Start of the study. The average age at Baseline was 61. Each of the women completed a detailed questionnaire about their physical activity. They were asked to estimate the number of hours per typical Day they spent doing moderate physical activities for example vacuuming Lawn mowing gardening Bowling walking hiking or Light jogging and How much time they spent engaged in vigorous ones heavy housework such As scrubbing floors or washing windows heavy Yard work digging in the Garden competitive Tennis running fast jogging bicycling on Hills aerobics fast dancing women reported spending an average of 1.2 hours a Day in vigorous activity and 5.9 hours a Day in non vigorous activity. After 11 years 1,506 of the women had been diagnosed with Post menopausal breast cancer. Overall the most Active women had about a 13 per cent lower risk of postmenopausal breast cancer compared with the least Active. But when researchers separated the women according to their level of adiposity fat tissue they found the effect was much stronger in Norma weight women those with a body mass Index under 25. Among Normal weight women those who carried out lots of physical activity were about 30 per cent less Likely to develop breast cancer compared to women with no vigorous activity. That suggests a sedentary lifestyle is a risk for breast cancer even in women who Arentt overweight. By contrast no link Between vigorous activity and lower risk of breast cancer was found in overweight or obese women. The association with physical activity was essentially limited to the leaner women said or. Michael Leitzmann who led the study while an investigator at the National cancer Institute of the u. S. National institutes of health.
