THREAD (please read & RT)

As you've noticed, the guidelines coming from public health have been changing. Please know: in a pandemic, things change rapidly. As we endeavor to pass along the most up-to-date info, sometimes it means changing what we're telling you to do. (1/8)
For instance, up until recently the guidance for returning international travellers (who were asymptomatic) said it was ok to go for a walk or walk your dog. That is no longer the case. We understand that this is frustrating, and we apologize for any stress it has caused. (2/8)
But through it all, one thing hasn't changed: we are all in this together. We see your efforts to #PlankTheCurve. We know they're not easy, and we thank you.

If you need info, we've built several websites for you. Our main #COVID19 page is here OttawaPublicHealth.ca/Coronavirus

#THREAD: #WHO Director Tedros Ghebreyesus won his 2017 election with #China’s backing

Tedros gives cover for China’s propaganda denying responsibility for the outbreak

Tedros praised China’s “transparency” - said China’s response was a model for others
dailycaller.com/2020/03/22/who…
Tedros is the first-ever WHO chief not to be a medical doctor and was accused of covering up three different cholera epidemics as Ethiopia’s health minister.
Despite all evidence to the contrary, Chinese authorities are weaving a false counternarrative in which China was actually the victim of a foreign virus that it quickly moved to contain. And the WHO is helping them do it.

#Thread If you thought “critical social justice” (as @ConceptualJames calls it) was going to take a break during (or better yet, become a fatality of) the #coronavirus #COVIDー19 outbreak, think again:
At @Independent after arguing that gender specific vaccines are needed, the author expresses skepticism that this will happen because,

Dear Unemployed Youth,

As companies continue to bemoan the unavailability of suitable candidates amidst high unemployment rate, Nigeria needs programs to re-skill and right-skill graduates so they can stop missing out on opportunities.

Here’s some solutions. Read & RT.

#Thread
Currently, high underemployment rates of 20.2% in Q3 2018 supports the anecdotal evidence that many university graduates lose earnings during five years of school only to land lower-paying jobs for which 6–18 months of training would have sufficed.
Formalisation and consequent skilling of the informal artisan sector presents opportunities not only to improve livelihoods but to also do so while enabling higher government revenue collections.
