Hi, my name is Emma and I got to our lady of fatima primary school in caringbah. I am very excited about E-Tasc this year.

=3 most Common Muscle Diseases: = =Polio = =Cerebal Palsy = =Muscular Dystrophy = =Out of these 3 I chose to study Cerebal Palsy = = = = = = = = = =Causes and Preventions for Cerebal Palsy = = = =Cerebral palsy results from damage to certain parts of the developing brain. This damage can occur early in pregnancy when the brain is just starting to form, during the birth process as the child passes through the birth canal, or after birth in the first few years of life. In many cases, the exact cause of the brain damage is never known. = =At one time, problems during birth, usually inadequate oxygen, were blamed for cerebral palsy. = = =

**There is no cure for cerebral palsy. With early and ongoing treatment, however, the disabilities associated with cerebral palsy can be reduced. Many different therapies are available, most under the supervision of a medical specialist or other allied professional. Not all of these therapies are right for every person with cerebral palsy. The therapy regimen for a specific individual with cerebral palsy should be tailored to meet the needs of that individual. A treatment may work for one child but not for another. The parents and the child’s care team work together to choose only those treatments that offer some benefit to the child. SWINE FLU **=====
 * I think that Swine Flu would be one of the most dangerous disease to people. Swine Flu is a very shocking disease that has killed over 7000 people since January 2009. Swine Flu is a strong lean, mean killing disease that is known to have come from Mexico. When novel influenza strains originate in animals such as birds or pigs and then make the jump to humans, the severity of the resulting disease is unpredictable. ****In March 2009, public health officers noticed that people in Mexico were becoming ill from a strain of swine influenza to which humans had no previous exposure.** ** On May 28, 2009, shortly before the Who’s department the New York Place of Sciences brought together a stack of vaccine experts, and policymakers to discuss the outbreak. The purpose of the symposium was to share current data and insights into human swine flu. As well as strategies that could help quell the impact of future pandemic strains or a more curable medicine for the people who have swine flu .**

= smoking = = Smoking is a key risk factor for the three diseases that cause most deaths in Australia: ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and lung cancer. It is responsible for around 80% of all lung cancer deaths and 20% of all cancer deaths (smoking has been linked to cancers of the mouth, bladder, kidney, stomach and cervix, among others). =
 * Smokers are also at increased risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and reduced lung function and smoking in pregnancy increases the risk of health problems for both mother and child. Tobacco use has been linked to a variety of other conditions, such as diabetes, peptic ulcers, some vision problems, and back pain. **
