#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.

Everytime there is a new epidemic different WhatsApp forwards pop up. This particular one i have seen at least 3 times in the last 4 years
Short answer
The information in this picture is WRONG & FALSE
#FactCheck

These masks are called MASKS or common surgical masks. They are usually used by healthcare workers when treating patients.

They are designed with a filter inside the white side to prevent the spread of water droplets from the breath OF THE PERSON WEARING IT.
So in essence wearing this mask protects the patient not the wearer. The droplets will collect in the mask & you breathe through it. But since it is your own droplets no harm. Wearing the mask in reverse will not work. Imagine if it collect the droplets from air. Common sense🤦🏽‍♂️

#Thread: As @Novartis’ vildagliptin (#Galvus) goes off-patent in #India today and a scramble is expected, some tidbits about this hugely successful drug.
-Vildagliptin, from a class of drugs called DPP-4, was launched in India in 2008 with a licensing arrangement with USV (1)
-This was one of the first few drugs launched post-2005, the starting of India's product patent era
-Novartis’ drug is Galvus and USV took the brand name Jalra; Novartis marketed Galvus in top cities while USV sold in smaller cities as Jalra (2)
-There was ample space for new anti-diabetes therapies and move the market beyond metformin and sulphonyureas
-GSK had a setback after Avandia (thiazolidenediones or TZD) was found to have safety issues. Curiously, a few years later, the drug was cleared by the US FDA (3)

#Thread Family Doctors (Primary Care) Vs Speciality Care in #India
A few weeks ago, in response to a different thread ( ) there was a comment from @spinesurgeon that we need family physicians. (1/31)
Another comment in that thread by @VaradhKrish referred to the issue of patients going directly to specialists, bypassing primary care doctors. (2/31)
The problem of patients going to specialists directly, rather than to primary care/family doctors first and then being referred by them to specialists is one that requires a more in-depth analysis. (3/31)
