Specifically, mothers who have left this practice are those living on the coast and in urban areas, which have better levels of education and higher incomes and, surprisingly, when they have six or more prenatal visits. We know that the higher the level of education improves the chances of access to decent employment and therefore a better labor income (2).

Mr. Editor: Teaching and learning communication in a different foreign language our mother tongue today are a social necessity and a priority that can be -among others- staff, academic, scientific, professional and cultural (1). Consequently, its use does not depend on the level of mastery of them, but the valuation assigned (2). For example, it would be absurd to think that a health professional may work in a hospital in Germany without mastering German. In this case it becomes a necessity for work, ie, a pre-requisite.

Mr. Editor. In the review article written by Garmendia (1) on violence in Peru, he has very well pointed out the VRAEM as an example of the violence that exists in our territory, since at least three departments - of the five that make up this valley - are among the five areas with the highest mortality from violence in our country and with a higher risk of death from this cause than the rest of the Peruvian population (2).

Traditionally, we have learned that a disaster occurs when a system does not have sufficient capacity to respond to an adverse event. However, this definition does not consider the time in which this variable should be measured. Some civil defense law tells us that after 72 hours (time) it is feasible to declare the emergency and receive external support, that is, in this period of time the response actions are implemented (interventions), evaluated and, if the In this case, it is accepted that it has exceeded the system's responsiveness.

Mr. Editor All research - experimental or non-experimental - must include 'respect for people, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice'. Even the former advocates respect for the autonomy and protection of people with impaired or affected autonomy. Likewise, in Peru, every person has the right to personal and family privacy (Political Constitution of Peru, 1993), so providing or disclosing, by any means, information related to the medical act for academic or scientific research purposes could have Legal responsibility when this information - obtained from the medical history - is not recorded anonymously (General Health Law, 1997). Furthermore, it is prohibited to publish the identity or image of the children or adolescents involved as victims, perpetrators, participants or witnesses of an infraction, misdemeanor or crime, through the media (Code of Children and Adolescents, 2000) .

Mr. Editor The National Council of Science and Technology (CONCYTEC) has been developing a recognized work to increase the scientific production of quality in our country. Among other actions, it has created the National Directory of Researchers (DINA) and the National Registry of Researchers in Science and Technology (REGINA). Indirectly, these actions have caused some health professionals (1) to postulate the following: a) CONCYTEC defines who is and who is not a 'researcher', and b) A 'researcher' who does not publish in indexed journals is a theoretician and does not It must be named as such. Next we will discuss these two assertions.

La varicela es una enfermedad infecciosa de la infancia, muy contagiosa y con alto riesgo de transmisión, se caracteriza por una erupción cutánea generalizada con pústulas, fiebre y malestar general. Usualmente es benigna y muy leve, pero puede ser severa y prolongada en adultos. La respuesta inmune contra la vacuna de la varicela es más pobre que la inmunidad por infección natural, y según opinión de los profesionales de la salud, la vacunación podría ser más efectiva en grupos de riesgo, pero no se tiene suficiente sustento para declarar la necesidad de un programa de vacunación masiva contra la varicela.
