Following the meeting of the @WHO TAG-VE today, WHO classifies B.1.1.529 as a variant of concern named Omicron.

We call for increased surveillance and genetic testing & thank 🇿🇦 for sharing their work in real time.

This new variant is really worrisome at the mutational level. South Africa and Africa will need support (financially, public health, scientific) to control it so it does not spread in the world. Our poor and deprived population can not be in lockdown without financial support.

[Tulio de Oliveira @Tuliodna]

Busy day on B.1.1.529 - a variant of great concern - The world should provide support to South Africa and Africa and not discriminate or isolate it! By protecting and supporting it, we will protect the world! A plea for billionaires and financial institutions. 1/8 tweets

Non-migratory African Oystercatchers spread #moult across whole of non-breeding season (@TaylynRisi). Eurasian Oystercatchers can be so stressed by lack of food that they give up #molt when winter starts.

At #IWSGconf, Mo Verhoeven gave us an update on plans to build an airport in the Tagus Estuary (Portugal).
Huge collaborative effort by waderologists to fight this.

So honoured to be presenting my research on the African Oystercatchers at #IWSGconf at 18:30 UTC tonight! There have been some amazing talks so far and it is wonderful to connect with other scientists who are passionate about protecting #waders !
