This article proposes a strategy for Switzerland to change the goal from HIV control to HIV elimination. In Switzerland, HIV treatment is well organized and available for all with good access. An important challenge that obstructs prevention is the new infections originating from people who are unaware of their status. Since the majority of new infections in Switzerland are within the group of men who have sex with men (MSM), this strategy targets MSM who do not know their HIV status and engage in risky sexual behavior.

This study proposes a systematic value chain approach to helping businesses identify and eliminate inefficiencies. The authors have developed a robust framework, which food-sector entrepreneurs can use to increase profitability of an existing business or to create new profitable opportunities. The value chain approach provides win-win opportunities for players within the value chain. To test the robustness of the framework, the authors use food waste as an example of a critical inefficiency and apply it to two different food sector business cases, each operating in diverse conditions. Because the suggested framework addresses the core elements and parameters for the existence and competitiveness of a business, the model can be adapted to other sectors.

Michel Foucault’s analysis of psychiatry´s birth around 1800 is well known. The French philosopherreversed the myth of PhilippePinel and William Tuke asliberatorsof the mad in the New Era after the French revolution: instead of a starting liberation we should consider it a completed elimination. The exclusion of madness from the realm of Reason is fulfilled. Insanity is silenced. From this moment on ‘the life of unreason no longer manifests itself except in the lightningflash of works such as those of Hölderlin, of Nerval, of Nietzsche,or of Artaud’, Foucault writes. And: ‘Sade's calm, patient language also gathers up the final words of unreason and also gives them, for the future, a remoter meaning.’ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bert-van-den-bergh-95476526/
