Egypt Wiped Out Hepatitis C. Now It Is Trying to Help the Rest of Africa. Effective drugs that have made the disease curable have yet to reach most of the region.

🧪An estimated one in 10 people, about nine million Egyptians, were chronically infected with HepC. In a public health campaign extraordinary for both its scale and its success, Egypt screened its entire population, brokered a deal for hugely discounted drugs and cured almost everyone with the virus.

Modèle égyptien, exposé au british museum. Il est surmonté d'un chat, symbole représentant Bastet.

Sistre romain, exposé le 2 décembre 2006 à Rome. Il n'a que trois branches, qui se terminent en tête de cygne. Je crois qu'il est surmonté d'un chat également.

Celui ci provient du Kunnthistorisches Museum. Je l'ai photographié cet été. 4 branches, et un chat sommital

C'est moi qui l'ai fait ! D'après le modèle exposé à Vienne. Bronze, fonderie traditionnelle au sable.

Associé au culte d'Isis, le sistre est un instrument à percussion rituel. Originaire d'Egypte, il s'est répandu dans l'empire, et particulièrement en Italie, dans les ports ou les villes cosmopolites. Voici une série d'exemplaires, dont un égyptien, et un de ma fabrication. 🏺classicsbluesky
