Certainly, venom from wasps sounds scary. But a new study shows that new treatment for rheumatoid arthritis may involve wasp venom (WV). At least in rats, wasp venom, like scorpion venom, actually improves rheumatoid arthritis symptoms.
Researchers say that a compound in the venom of the wasp may help to treat rheumatoid arthritis. In a new study, researchers have revealed how wasp venom stopped the progression of rheumatoid arthritis in rat models of the disease.
They indicated that various doses of wasp venom significantly improve swelling and movement. More importantly, the venom can reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis in these animal models, even reversing damage from the disease in some cases. The study appeared in the journal, Evidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

It is apparent that the lingering crisis between the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) and the breakaway Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools (ASUSS) has degenerated into a new dimension as both unions now engage in a war of words.
NUT which has been the umbrella body for all public primary and secondary school teachers in the country for almost 90 years, is insisting that it will continue to be in control of all teachers.
It insisted that the teachers in primary and secondary schools are better protected and covered by the union, and therefore no reason for any group under it to pull away.
