1/ Our paper on the importance of sexed language in maternity argued that desexing language regarding inherently sexed states risks misunderstanding and other deleterious outcomes. We had only reason, anecdote and fundamental research underpinning. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

One year ago today, WHO published "Clinical Management of Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) when COVID-19 Disease is Suspected" When it came to maternal-newborn care WHO was 100% right and so many mothers and infants were protected. Those involved should be congratulated. Also 1 year today @DrNinaBerry and my @ConversationEDU article on Coronavirus with an infant was published. It has been read ≈400 000x. theconversation.com/coronavirus-wi… We also got it right. Just why so many health authorities did not is beyond me, it was clear from almost the very start
