By Mutesasira Ronaldo Every day, we make choices about what to eat, who to trust, how to protect our bodies, and how to care for others. But beneath these daily actions lie powerful forces— our genetics, our health systems, our cultural beliefs, and our shared history of survival. We are more than just individuals—we are living links in a chain stretching across generations, shaped by the past and shaping the future. 🧬 Your Health Is a Story, Not Just a Diagnosis When you fall sick, a doctor may treat your symptoms. But the roots of illness often go deeper: Are you genetically predisposed to a condition? Did your parents grow up in food insecurity? Has your community faced years of inequality? These aren't just academic questions. They’re part of your health identity —an invisible web that connects your biology, biography, and environment. 🕊️ History Repeats Itself—But Are We Listening? From plagues in ancient Egypt to the COVID-19 pandemic, history is full of h...
Were You Prepared for the COVID-19 Pandemic?
By Mutesasira Ronaldo When the world stood still in early 2020, a single question echoed across households, hospitals, and halls of government: Were we ready for this? The COVID-19 pandemic didn’t just challenge our immune systems it tested our health systems, leadership, trust in science, and even our ability to care for one another. But what does it really mean to be prepared ? 🏥 Preparedness at Three Levels Global & Governmental Many governments had pandemic plans on paper. Yet, when reality hit, gaps appeared in supply chains, healthcare capacity, data transparency, and leadership coordination. Lesson: Preparedness is more than planning it’s readiness in action. Community & Institutional Schools, clinics, and businesses scrambled to adapt. Some shifted quickly to remote work or digital platforms, while others lacked resources or infrastructure. Lesson: Community resilience matters as much as national strategy. Individual & Family Most people nev...
By Mutesasira Ronaldo Long before modern laboratories, artificial intelligence, and space telescopes, ancient civilizations were already asking questions about the natural world. Who are we? What causes disease? Why do stars move across the sky? The search for answers what we now call science began not in textbooks, but in temples, deserts, forests, and villages. And though it lacked microscopes or modern precision, ancient science laid the foundation for everything we know today . 🔭 Observation as the First Tool Before formulas or theories, ancient thinkers used their most powerful tool: observation . The Babylonians tracked planetary motion with surprising accuracy using only the naked eye. The Ancient Egyptians aligned pyramids using celestial positions and created early surgical practices. The Chinese recorded solar eclipses and developed sophisticated knowledge in medicine and chemistry. 🧪 Early Chemistry and Medicine Science was not separate from d...
Who Do You Think You Are? Genetics and Identity
By "Oxford" “Who do you think you are?” It’s a question we hear often sometimes in jest, sometimes in challenge. But when science steps in, it becomes a question of astonishing complexity. In the age of DNA testing kits, ancestry websites, and personalized medicine, your genetic code is being touted as the ultimate mirror of your identity. But how much of you really lives in your genes? The Genetic Blueprint Your body holds over 20,000 genes, encoded in a language of just four letters: A, T, C, and G. This intricate script guides everything from your eye color and blood type to your risk of developing certain diseases. It’s easy to assume then, that DNA defines who we are. And yet while your genes are foundational, they are not the full story. More Than Molecules: Identity Beyond the Genome 1. Culture & Environment: You may share 99.9% of your DNA with the person sitting next to you, but your upbringing, culture, faith, language, and life experiences give y...
