Reflections on World Voice Day. By Moisés Sáez Garrido Academic Phonoaudiology Andrés Bello University Concepción Headquarters

16

Every April 16 we celebrate World Voice Day, an opportunity to reflect on the importance of this vital tool that allows us to communicate and connect with the world. As a speech pathologist, I am committed to promoting voice care awareness and educating people on how to maintain a healthy voice.
Voice is an essential tool for human communication. It allows us to speak, sing, express ourselves, share our emotions and connect with others. However, we do not give it the necessary importance and do not take proper care of it. Excessive or incorrect use of the voice can lead to disorders and injuries to the vocal folds, which can affect our ability to speak and communicate.
A healthy voice is important not only for our social and professional lives, but also for our overall health. For example, a weak or hoarse voice may be a sign of an underlying health problem, such as a respiratory infection or vocal fold injury.
So how can we take care of our voice? First of all, it is important to avoid excessive or incorrect use of the voice, such as shouting or speaking in noisy environments. Also, it is recommended not to expose yourself to sudden changes in temperature, to very dry and dusty environments. Likewise, it is suggested to avoid excessive consumption of tobacco and alcohol.
It is essential to maintain good hydration, since drinking enough water helps keep our voice hydrated. In addition, maintaining a healthy diet helps prevent diseases that can affect the voice. Vocal warm-up exercises are advised before prolonged or intense voice use.
In conclusion, on this World Voice Day, it is important that we reflect on the importance of our voice and its fundamental role in our lives. Through it, we can express our feelings, thoughts and emotions to the world. But, like any other part of our body, our voice also needs care and attention. Taking care of our voice not only benefits us in terms of physical health, but also allows us to connect with others and express ourselves effectively.
Therefore, I invite you to take action today. Take a few minutes to learn more about how to take care of your voice and put these simple but useful recommendations into practice for your daily use. Don’t forget to share this message with your loved ones and the community so everyone can join this movement for a healthier voice.

The Minister Delegate in charge of Relations with Parliament, government spokesperson, Mustapha Baitas stressed, Thursday in Rabat, that the government continues to work for the return of prices to a reasonable and normal level. Mr. Baitas, who was answering questions during a press briefing after the meeting of the Governing Council, indicated that prices have started a downward trend, which is very important, pointing out that the executive will continue to work in the same collective spirit and with the same meticulous follow-up, the objective being to bring the prices of these products back to a reasonable and normal level. The question of prices largely dominated the work of the government meeting, being the subject of extensive discussions, he also indicated, noting the holding of a meeting at the Ministry of the Interior, in the presence of the various ministers concerned by this file who work within the framework of a commission which examines all questions relating to prices. In response to another question from journalists, the Minister indicated that the strategic stock of soft wheat exceeds three months, while the stock of durum wheat exceeds two months. In addition, Mr. Baitas noted that the government has subsidized this product so that there is no increase, since the budget allocated to subsidies during 2022, reaches 9.3 billion dirhams, through the compensation fund, representing subsidies for wheat, flour and bread, so that families can access them at reasonable prices.

Spain and the Ukrainian counteroffensive

The visit to Spain of the Ukrainian Defense Minister, Oleksii Reznikovv, has not only served to thank his counterpart Margarita Robles for the delivery of the first six Leopard 2A4 tanks that will arrive in Ukraine before the end of the month. Neither has he limited himself to recognizing Spain's contribution to the defense of Ukraine against the Russian invasion with the training of Ukrainian soldiers in Spanish territory, or the assistance provided to soldiers and officers wounded in combat. The press conference that both ministers held has revealed a greater political involvement of Spain in the war unleashed by Vladimir Putin than previously assumed. According to Reznikov, the prominent role that the government of Pedro Sánchez played in the constitution of the so-called Leopard coalition contributed significantly to overcoming German reluctance to grant the necessary permission as a manufacturer of the tanks for their delivery to the Ukrainian Army. This is not a minor issue since the Leopards not only mean increasing the firepower of the Ukrainian Army, but also constitute the spearhead of the counteroffensive that Kiev wants to unleash to recover territory in Donbas and, probably, part of the coasts. of the Black Sea and the Azov Sea that have been occupied by Russia.
