[A Danish nurse serving in Rome and Paris during the post-war years after World War I].

In letters to her aunt a Danish nurse, sister in law to the Danish medical historian professor dr.med Evd. Gotfredsen, describes her life, professionally and as a tourist, in Rome and Paris. In 1920 she lived in Rome at the Dinesen Pension, established around the change of the century by a Danish lady. The pension developed into the favorite resort for many Scandinavian Visitors to Rome, some of them famous. During her stay in Paris 1920-26 she had close relations to the nursing bureau established under the auspices of the Danish Council of Nurses (D.S.R). For one and a half years she was the private nurse of the famous ethnologist Roland Bonaparte, grandson of Napoleon's brother Lucien, during his terminal bladder cancer.

[War on Drugs or War against Health? The pitfalls for public health of Puerto Rican drug policy].

Puerto Rico has followed the United States in adopting drug policy sustained on a criminal justice model that limits the opportunities to address problematic drug use through public health interventions. Demand for illegal drugs is controlled by criminalizing drug use and applying jail sentences for drug offenses. These strategies marginalize drug users and reduce opportunities to minimize health risks applying public health measures. Production and sale of illegal drugs is criminalized with the intent of dissuading drug use, with adverse unintended health effects that impact both drug users and non-drug users in the community. The present work reviews the assumptions of the punitive prohibitionist model and its outcomes that present themselves as public health challenges in Puerto Rico. It also presents those principles that should sustain pragmatic drug policy to address problematic drug use from a health and social perspective.
