NEW!💡 Check out our #scopingreview on factors influencing active #TB case-finding (ACF) policy development and implementation @BMJ_Open. The review also gives insights into the history and components of ACF policy. #EndTB @karolinskainst @impact_tb bmjopen.bmj.com/content/9/12/e…
The #SDGs and @WHO highlight active case-finding (ACF) as one strategy to find the 'missing' people with #TB. ACF is also known as systematic community-based TB screening. The evidence base for ACF is relatively limited and opinions vary. @BMJ_Open #EndTB bmjopen.bmj.com/content/9/12/e…
Working with the development and/or implementation of active #TB case-finding (ACF) policies, hopefully our review can help you identify facilitators and barriers for ACF policy in you own context to reap the potential benefits of ACF. 🔎 @BMJ_Open #EndTB bmjopen.bmj.com/content/9/12/e…
What's next? To complement our review (bmjopen.bmj.com/content/9/12/e…), we conducted ✅ a #qualitative study interviewing experts globally about active #TB case-finding policy & ✅ a #survey with National TB Programme managers from countries with a high TB burden. Stay tuned! @BMJ_Open

@GlobalFund @DrTedros @UN @WHO_Europe @pahowho @WHOEMRO @WHOSEARO @WHOAFRO @WHOWPRO The number of new cases of #TB has been declining steadily in recent years. However, the burden remains high among low-income and marginalized populations: around 10 million people developed TB in 2018.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

A short thread about 'doing' #History, and a glimpse of what I am working on.

#Burma #Myanmar #SOE #Force136 #WW2 #SWW
Step 1: Read translated interview
'After the battle, our company and the Chinese company were ordered to defend the Mawchi road and the Officer-in-Charge was Capt. Thompson of the Bengal Rifles. Jemedar Pan Mya and 16 soldiers were captured fighting the Japanese at Paletwa.'
Step 2: Check out Capt. Thompson
Thompson was not Bengal Rifles, he was 1st Battalion Burma Rifles. Translator or interviewee error? Not to worry. Error found.
