Yeast are single-celled fungi. As fungi, they are related to the other fungi that people are more familiar with, including: edible mushrooms available at the supermarket, common bakerâs yeast used to leaven bread, molds that ripen blue cheese, and the molds that produce antibiotics for medical and veterinary use.
Currently there are some 38,000 refugees in Switzerland, many of which are from Eritrea, Sri Lanka, and the Balkans. These numbers in tandem with new arrivals have caused the cantons, (who despite being largely in favour of the EU quota system) to complain that the federal government is delegating the issue to them.
Now, the UN expects that the by the end of 2013 there will be 3.5 million Syrian refugees and that a further 1.9 million people in the region will need help as a result of Syria's crisis. The UN agency has detailed plans about how best to address the needs of those refugees in 2013.
