1. They keep denying it, but now Masschusetts, France, and Canada have seen #COVID19 medical equipment diverted to the USA.

45 is letting other countries/states do the hard work of sourcing materials, then swooping in to outbid in order to hijack them.

2. Les gouvernments de l'état du Massachusets, de la France, et du Canada remarquent que de l'équipement vitale pour lutter au #COVID19 a été détourné et redirigé aux États-Unis

5. And it looks like Italy was also a "target".

1. Before he was elected, @FordNation promised he would see the Basic Income Pilot through...

Once elected, he killed it.

Before the #Elxn43 vote was held, he said he wouldn't fight the #CarbonTax in court if the @CPC_HQ lost.

He's going ahead with it anyway

2. Before the #Elxn43 vote was held, NB Premier @BlaineHiggs he said he wouldn't fight the #CarbonTax in court if the @CPC_HQ lost.

While he will go ahead with a Made in NB carbon pricing scheme, he is still involved in the court case.

3. Before he was elected, AB Premier @JKenney promised cuts wouldn't go beyond a certain point and that he'd respect city charters.

He waited until the #Elxn43 vote was held to drop a buget in which he betrayed those promises and many more.

1. @JKenney @PremierScottMoe

As a Canadian living outside AB/SK, I'm experiencing All of Canada EXCEPT AB/SK alienation by Western Protest Conservatives who keep on trying to impose Harperism on all of the rest of us.

As such, I've some demands as well:

#CdnPoli
2.
a. Stop lying to Western Canadians about that which equalization is. You transfer not a cent to the feds. It is the feds who opt to set aside money that is rightfully theirs in order to help have-not provinces. If equalization were cancelled, AB wouldn't have a nickle more.
3.
b. Alberta must institute a provincial sales tax. Every other Canadian that does pay a provincial/territorial sales tax is pretty much tired of subsidizing your 0% PST every time an AB government can't balance its books.

@nikiashton 1. ICYMI Niki, it was the NDP that counter proposed how the electoral reform committee should be formed (under the pretense of protecting Canadians from Liberals using their majority to impose a system), and the PM accepted it.

He gave you your way.
@nikiashton 2. Then, once you got your way, the NDP behaved on the Committee in the exact same way they said the Liberals would. It thought ONLY of what was in its own partisan best interest.

So, he gave you your way, and you did nothing with that advantage.
@nikiashton 3. If you were being honest, you'd admit electoral reform got dropped not because of anything the PM did, but rather due to your party's inability to come to an agreement with Conservatives on what kind of reform to put in place.

So you got your way, then squandered it.

1/ Forward of one US doctor's Covid experience. Self-proning, discharging multilobar pneumonia home, 20-30% survival rate for pts requiring intubation, it's necessary education for the rest of us that may face similar situations in a week or two.
2/ Hope UK and Europe will soon be coming out the other side of the covid case spike. #covid #covid19 #emergencymedicine

"Clinical course is predictable.

2-11 days after exposure (day 5 on average) flu like symptoms start.
3/
Common are fever, headache, dry cough, myalgias (back pain), nausea without vomiting, abdominal discomfort with some diarrhea, loss of smell, anorexia, fatigue.
Day 5 of symptoms- increased SOB, and bilateral viral pneumonia from direct viral damage to lung parenchyma.

Left Bangalore last night and just landed in Shanghai today afternoon. I am surprised by how Pudong Airport and this metro city has been running, under the #COVIDー19 challenge. Here are some of my observations:

Key words: Color card, QR code, Self-protection.
(Thread)
1/
 My flight from Singapore to Shanghai is 80% Chinese passengers. It's easy to identify Chinese from other nationals because they do self-protection in the next level:

100% wear masks(so are other nationals), 10-20% wear goggles, 5% wear protective clothing, some even gloves..
2/
 After landing in Shanghai, passengers took turns to get out of the plane, which took 2+ hours. India is not among the 24 serious countries so I was in second batch. Passengers came from London is the highest risk so last batch. A passenger lived with a patient was separated.

Analysis results of 25,000+ lab-confirmed COVID-19 cases in Wuhan till Feb 18: epidemiological characteristics and non-pharmaceutical Intervention effects. The key results are summarized below and hope they are useful for the strategies in US and others medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
1. In the absence of intervention (before 1/23), the effective reproductive number R=3.8>>1, and dropped to R=0.3 after the massive intervention on Feb 1(centralized quarantine and treatment of all confirmed and suspected cases). This intervention worked.
2. Various sensitivity analyses were done and the conclusion holds.

#Yemen Houthi are saying "we attacked Aramco and we shall attack more targets". The possibility #US and #SaudiArabia have is to stop #Iran by putting an end to the genocidal war on #Yemen.

Otherwise, keep the war ongoing and fall into Iran's hands.

The #US policy is laughable.
#Yemen is capable of sending drones & missiles against #SaudiArabia and the #UAE if needed.

Houthis are increasing their military capabilities and #Iran is jumping in to support Yemen to stand to Saudi war.

Houthi have access to satellite facilities and GPS on drones & missiles
Houthis have new kind of third generation drones and missiles. Houthis #Yemen are forcing on #SaudiArabia new Rules of Engagement. If #US and #SaudiArabia would like to see #Yemen out of the "Axis of the Resistance", the solution is simple: Stop the war. Otherwise suffer from it
