We're passionate about helping people find love, and we absolutely love what we do. of "consolidation" associated with pneumonia, thus leading to the administration of anti- biotics. The NICE guidelines on bronchiolitis warn that find- ings on chest X-rays may "mimic pneumonia" and lead to the unnecessary use of an- tibiotics, thus increasing anti- microbial resistance, without improving outcomes. These guidelines include specific indicators on when to perform chest X-rays. These include fever over 39°C, signs of airway complications and fever in infants aged less than three months. The study concludes that adherence to these guidelines may help to decrease unnec- essary radiation exposure and its adverse effects, reduce the financial burden of bronchioli- tis on the health services and avoid unnecessary administra- tion of antibiotics and the sub- sequent development of anti- biotic resistance. jdebono@mediatoday.com.mt 'guilt by association': "The court insists that pri- vate persons must be pro- tected from excessive interfer- ence and baseless accusations, which attacks are uniquely in- tended at indirectly attacking their spouses in politics, and the courts must protect these private persons in a bid to en- sure others can sacrifice their private life for political duty without fear of dragging their spouses and children in the harsh arena of politics." Depasquale set much store in his decision by criteria first laid down by the European Court of Human Rights in the Axel Springer case, which ar- gued that even public figures and politicians who can expect lower levels of privacy, should still be protected from photos or commentaries with "the sole aim of satisfying the curiosity of a particular readership" or which do not contribute to a debate of general interest. So, the Springer case contin- ued, a rumoured marital dif- ficulty of a politician or the fi- nancial difficulties of a famous singer (arguably part of the bread and butter for rags and quality papers the world over) were not deemed to be matters of general interest. While the magistrate deliv- ered a strong point on the tac- tic of journalists and bloggers to employ 'guilt by association' as a way of attacking politi- cians' loved ones to undermine their personal harmony, his decision raises the question of where these spouses' privacy oversteps the politician's do- main. Helena Dalli was an equal opportunities minister at the time of the reports. Had she been planning minister, would have Patrick Dalli's planning applications on the Zejtun home been more meritorious for journalistic scrutiny? If ministers employ family mem- bers and third parties to apply for permits to the PA on prop- erties they own, are they not hiding their interests behind the 'privacy' of their non-pub- lic relatives? And with spouses, children and even immediate relatives of politicians now considered to be PEPs under new Euro- pean anti-money laundering rules, are not the financial af- fairs and holdings of an MP's spouse a matter of public in- terest – arguably to ensure no MP abuses of his public influ- ence for his family's personal gain? Keen muckrakers under- stand the thin red line be- tween private and public. But sometimes, the most private of affairs can become a legal matter, and once inside a court of law, one of public record – one on which journalists enjoy legal privilege to report upon. Be warned: privacy only exists outside a public forum. "The spouse of a minister does not get to be treated the same way as a politician and with the same fastidious scrutiny"
