#COVID19 UPDATE: Refugees living in severely overcrowded camps are sharing 1 tap for up to 250 people and many have less than 3.5 square meters of living space per person - which will make it extremely difficult to contain #coronavirus.

#Coronavirus could also be catastrophic for people and places hit by conflicts, like Yemen, Syria & South Sudan, who are already struggling with malnutrition, diseases like cholera and a lack of clean water and health facilities.

#GlobalCeasefire Image
Advice from @WHO states that people should stay 1 meter away from anyone coughing or sneezing, wash their hands frequently and seek medical help as soon as symptoms become apparent to avoid spreading #coronavirus. In #refugee camps, and elsewhere, this is *extremely* difficult. ImageImage

#Brazil shines again, on the path to a fairer future! 🌿

Under Brazil’s leadership, @g20org just published a Ministerial Declaration on International Tax Cooperation.

Here is why it matters:
#G20 countries are home to nearly 4/5 of the world’s billionaires - and globally, billionaires have been paying next to nothing in taxes, legally.

This is how they do it:

vox.com/money/2024/3/1…
Not just that. While we struggle to pay energy bills, the richest 1% have amassed $42 trillion in new wealth over the past decade, nearly 34 times more than the entire bottom 50% of the world’s population.

75 years ago, @UN was founded to unite the world to confront the challenges facing all of humanity. With growing inequality, climate crisis, #COVID19, toxic nationalism, and ongoing conflict - it is clear that the promise of the UN remains as important as ever. #UN75
We celebrate the @UN #UN75. Its humanitarian efforts have saved lives, it has brokered and kept peace in conflict areas around the world, promoted #HumanRights, and created & championed an agenda for sustainable development. #PeaceDay #GlobalGoals Image
But @UN's promise remains unfulfilled. Globally, #WomensRights are being rolled back, women human rights defenders are under attack. 25 yrs since the Beijing Declaration, & 20 yrs since UNSC Res. 1325, govts aren't meeting commitments to #WomenPeaceSecurity & gender equality. Image

UPDATE: A small group of rich nations - representing just 13% of world population - have bought up MORE THAN HALF the supply of leading #COVID19 vaccine contenders.

Time for a #PeoplesVaccine - free for everyone, everywhere.

Access to a life-saving vaccine shouldn’t depend on where you live or how much money you have. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏼

#COVID19: As we approach 30 million cases worldwide...

“We will never be able to produce a vaccine at the scale required until corporations share their knowledge free from patents. We need a #PeoplesVaccine, not a profit vaccine.” - @Anna_Marriott

BREAKING: #Coronavirus pandemic profits for companies soar by billions more as the world's poorest people pay price. 🚨

👉🏾👉🏿👉🏼 oxf.am/3iezJLl

#InequalityVirus Image
As the #COVID19 pandemic hits 6 months, close to a million people have lost their lives.

And the economic fallout has been devastating too: 400 million jobs lost & half a billion people expected to be pushed into poverty.

But not everyone is losing out.

oxf.am/cashing-in-on-… Image
Jeff Bezos could personally pay each of @amazon’s 876,000 employees a one-off bonus of more than $100,000 - and still be as wealthy as he was at the beginning of the pandemic.

BEIRUT: One month since the #BeirutBlast killed over 180 people, injured more than 6,500 and displaced some 300,000 residents... and still thousands of people simply can’t afford a front door.

#COVID19 #Inequality #Lebanon Image
In fact, a single front door in #Beirut currently costs 2 months’ worth of a minimum-wage salary...

Lebanon's longstanding inequality, massive inflation & now #COVID19 have compounded this humanitarian disaster.

Syria's people have suffered 10 devastating years of war. Now they face both spreading hunger & #COVID19.

Oxfam joins international agencies calling for global leaders at this week's #SyriaConf2020 to scale up lifesaving aid urgently.

A staggering 9.3 million Syrians are now going to sleep hungry and +2m more are at risk of a similar fate. #Covid19 restrictions, the collapse of the Syrian pound, and the displacement of millions of people are a disastrous combination.

#SyriaConf2020 must step up support now. Munzer*, 71, is a farmer. H...
“Bread has become a luxury we can’t afford."
- Najwa, Rural Damascus, Syria

Faced with war & #coronavirus, unless funding and humanitarian access are increased, many Syrians will be pushed to the brink of starvation.
