In outbreaks of other #coronaviruses (MERS & SARS), person-to-person transmission occurred through droplets, contact and fomites, suggesting that the transmission mode of the 2019-nCoV can be similar

WHO Situation Report 27 January 2020 bit.ly/2U0II9K
@WHOWPRO @WHOSEARO @pahowho @WHO_Europe @WHOAFRO @WHOEMRO Important perspective from today's #coronavirus report:

Of the 2,798 confirmed cases reported to @WHO so far, 98% are in China.

Of the 37 cases outside China, 36 had travel history to Wuhan or other cities in China.

👉bit.ly/2U0II9K
@WHOWPRO @WHOSEARO @pahowho @WHO_Europe @WHOAFRO @WHOEMRO So far, WHO is aware of one case of human-to-human transmission of #coronavirus outside 🇨🇳, in Vietnam.

That’s still one case too many. But we’re encouraged that so far we have not seen more human-to-human transmission outside 🇨🇳. We’re monitoring the outbreak constantly.

f you have fever, cough and difficulty breathing, see a doctor right away and share your travel history with them
Avoid travel to China, especially the Hubei province

Continue to protect yourself from other viruses, such as the flu, by getting vaccinated 🙄

#coronaviruses cause respiratory illnesses such as the common cold. Symptoms are typically mild to moderate but can cause pneumonia and bronchitis. Common amongst animals worldwide, but only a handful of them are known to affect humans ➡️
#Cornoavirus #Corona #Epidemic #pandemic Image
Rarely, coronaviruses can evolve & spread from animals to humans. Happening now as the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) & the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-Cov), both of which are known to cause more severe symptoms ➡️
Since Dec 2019, the virus has spread to other countries, including #Thailand, #Japan, #Korea & #UnitedStates. National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination, Dr Zafar Mirza, has rejected the claim that #Pakistan had diagnosed its first case of the #coronavirus ➡️

THREAD: This summary of key findings from the "largest-ever study of transgender and gender non-conforming people in the United States" is essential reading for #medical and #nursing personnel. 1/n
#TransAwarenessWeek
#TransHealthEthicsProject
#bioethics
thetaskforce.org/new-report-rev…
“Finding doctors who will treat, will prescribe, & will even look at you like a human being rather than a thing has been problematic. Have been denied care by doctors & major hospitals so much that... I never reveal my gender history.” — Survey Respondent 2/n
Nearly 1 in 5 trans folks surveyed (19 percent) reported being refused health care care outright because they were transgender or gender non-conforming.

REIHELD NOTE: this is consistent across studies, & across US and Canada. Access to care is about bias, not just systems. 3/n
