1/7 #COVID19 key concerns in 🇨🇦 right now:
2/7 #COVID19 cases continue to ↑ in 🇨🇦. Of the new cases, those that are linked to community spread now outnumber cases linked to travel or close contact with a traveller.

#SocialDistancing #FlattentheCurve #PlanktheCurve
3/7 Some community cases can be traced back to a known exposure or setting but, for others, the source of exposure is unknown - the latter are the most problematic #COVID19

1/6 In the coming days and weeks, our biggest challenge will be to maintain our resolve in #SocialDistancing, while we wait to see the signs that our efforts are having an effect. #SlowTheSpread #COVID19 #PlanktheCurve #TeamCanada
2/6 Prevention is hard work, it takes time to #PlanktheCurve and we can’t count cases we’ve prevented but we know it must done. #COVID19 #TeamCanada #SocialDistancing #Strongertogether
3/6 These are challenging times. We are still early in this difficult effort. Knowing the devastating effect of this pandemic in other countries, we know we must see this through. #SlowTheSpread #COVID19 #PlanktheCurve #TeamCanada

1/6 #COVID19 key concerns in 🇨🇦 right now:
2/6 The day-by-day sharp rise in cases in 🇨🇦 and provinces reporting new cases with no links to travel are the focus of our concern right now. We need to get this right, right now. All clean-hands on deck. #FlattentheCurve #PlanktheCurve #COVID19
3/6 Unlinked #COVID19 cases are signals of community spread. Applying strong public health measures to detect-test-isolate cases & trace-manage contacts continues to be our top priority. #FlattentheCurve #PlanktheCurve

Hello again, my friends. It is nice to talk to you all again. But, today I feel compelled to address something.

We Need To Talk About China. (Thread)

The rampant racism circulating about the Chinese people in these troubled times greatly disturbs me.
Now in the past, I have been deeply and extensively critical of the Xi and Hu Administrations. And I think with good cause. But I also have many friends in China to this day, and it pains me deeply to see these racist attacks against the Chinese themselves
Not only Chinese people, but, the wide and varied Chinese diaspora and emigrants across many nations. Take these young Britons for example, it breaks my heart to see them lassies suffer like this:

Happy Mother’s Day 🏡❤️ I’m writing a thread this morning about my concerns as an Autistic mum of an Autistic young person (plural ) during #COVIDー19 and why both my lived experiences and professional experiences lead me to believe #Autistic of all ages are sadly “high risk”
Before I begin it’s an important disclaimer that I am NOT a medical professional,and although I help boards of a social and medical nature ,this is a ponder and insight sharing of my professional support and advocacy life and my personal insights from a personal perspective...
When we see higher risk lists ,We often see Leraning Disability as higher risk . Many Autistic people have no LD but also many also have LD . Many have great abilities /jobs and areas of LD , the term LD isn’t black and white for Autistic people as our profiles are “Spikey “ ...

How to reduce healthcare worker exposure and flatten our #COVID curve
This is what we’re doing w/ OBGYN faculty and residents
1. Separate providers: Inpatient & Outpatient
2. Divide in 2 teams: Active Duty (in person care) and Reserve Duty (Virtual), rotate on 2 wk basis (1/4)
3. Cluster L&D shifts: Same day team and same night team over several consecutive days
4. If pairing or teams, always pair/team the same people together and replace them as a team if one becomes ill (2/4)
5. Mandate each person wipe down the work station/keybboard before each shift and sanitize hands regularly – multiple users at computer stations is unavoidable across a day
6. Enforce social distancing by removing/re-arranging furniture in common areas (3/4)

#COVID-19 has yet to be documented in #Yemen, but Abdel Ilah, who manages the factory that opened three days ago, is getting ready for its arrival. “#Coronavirus is knocking on the whole world’s door,” he said.

#YEMEN
The five-year conflict has killed more than 100,000 and unleashed a humanitarian crisis in which many others have died. Yemen’s shattered healthcare infrastructure and already weakened population suggest the virus could wreak more havoc if takes hold.

On both sides of the divide, #Yemen has stepped up measures to contain and mitigate against coronavirus should it appear, including screening and tracking arrivals.

In #Sanaa, a rush on face masks as awareness about the disease increases has

Volt believes in united European action addressing the international health emergency caused by the coronavirus. As Europeans, we need to take an active role in preventing and tackling the challenges of this crisis.

#COVIDー19 #corona @VoltEuropa
We support the proposed action by the European Commission, especially the accelerated work on the European Unemployment Reinsurance scheme, which will help us protect jobs and skills.
We also support bringing immediate relief to the hard-hit businesses, and the providing of credit holidays to existing debtors. Finally, we welcome the expansion of the EU Solidarity Fund. Going forward, it must cover public health crises.
