NEW WHO guidance on disability during #COVID19. Populations with #disability may be impacted more significantly by #coronavirus. This can be mitigated if simple actions & protective measures are taken
👉 bit.ly/33ZDtKo Disability considerations during the COVID-19 outbreak.
People with #disability may be at greater risk of contracting #COVID19 because:
• Physical barriers to use basic hygiene facilities
• Need to touch things
• Difficulty in enacting social distancing
• Barriers to accessing public health & #coronavirus information People with disability may be at greater risk of contracting COVID-19 because:<br /> • Physical barriers to use basic hygiene facilities<br /> • Need to touch things<br /> • Difficulty in enacting social distancing<br /> • Barriers to accessing public health and coronavirus information

The ventilator is one of the most important pieces of equipment in the fight against coronavirus. If a patient can’t breathe on their own, a ventilator helps move air in and out of the lungs for them - providing oxygen and also, importantly, removing carbon dioxide. (1/19)
Ventilators are also called breathing machines. They were also previously called respirators, but that is an outdated use of the word. Respirators in a health care setting typically means a protective mask. (2/19)
Respiratory therapists help manage the ventilators and help care for patients using them. And, the room where a ventilator is stored has to be properly equipped, including oxygen and back-up power supply to make sure the ventilator never stops accidentally. (3/19)

R$ 202.898.597,50
É o valor que as empresas arrecadaram ilegalmente, retirando os cobradores dos ônibus nos últimos 2 anos.

Quer entender como chegamos nesse número?

Vamos te explicar direitinho, segue o fio.

Aqui tem informação, Rogerinho!

#NãoVaiTerAumento
#VaiTerTroco
Pra chegar nesse valor, começamos calculando o quanto custa um cobrador (agente de bordo) por mês para o sistema de ônibus da cidade.

De acordo com a última convenção coletiva da categoria, publicada aqui bit.ly/38qlv5H
O salário de um agente de bordo é de R$1.133,98
Esse valor é vigente desde outubro/18, antes o valor era de R$1.090,37.
Como estamos calculando o quanto as empresas lucraram entre Jan/17 e dez/18, vamos usar uma média ponderada de R$1.115,81

Vejam que, pra todos os efeitos, é um salário muito baixo. Uma profissão precarizada.

Vivió desde los 2 a los 11 años en Argentina (con estadías en Venezuela). Sólo nueve años en una edad en la que no todo se retiene. A él, le bastaron para descubrir su mayor pasión. Viggo Mortensen es el hombre definitivo y en este #HILOVACIÓN explicamos su amor por San Lorenzo.
Viggo Mortensen nació en New York el 20/10/1958 y su genealogía poco tiene que ver con Argentina. Su papá es danés, su mamá es estadounidense y su abuelo materno es canadiense. Los padres se conocieron en Noruega, se casaron en Holanda y se asentaron en Estados Unidos.
En 1960, cuando Viggo tenía 2 años, la familia se mudó a Sudamérica por negocios y pasó los primeros tiempos entre Argentina y Venezuela. Luego, se asentó definitivamente en este país y vivió en Buenos Aires, Chaco y Córdoba. Pero a los 11, Viggo tuvo que volver a Estados Unidos.
