I think one of the healthiest things a person can do is become easy to delight. To still stop for weird clouds and dogs wearing bandanas and the smell of garlic cooking somewhere down the street. The world already has enough cynicism. Be the person who still points at the moon.
A highlight of my visit to Cape Town was meeting Professor Tulio de Oliveira & the team at the Centre for Epidemic Response and Innovation. Their work is strengthening Africa’s ability to better understand & respond to health threats through science, research, & regional collab.
How do we strengthen health security while creating jobs and opportunity?
Today I visited the @biovac_inst in Cape Town. Local vaccine manufacturing can do more than protect lives—it can create skilled jobs and help build stronger local industries.
President @CyrilRamaphosa receives World Bank Group President, Mr Ajay Banga, at Mahlamba Ndlopfu in Pretoria.
The meeting explored opportunities to deepen collaboration under the forthcoming Country Partnership Framework (2027–2032), with a focus on inclusive infrastructure, improving state capability, job-rich growth and sustainable development.
The flag is wrong.
The South African flag should never, ever be displayed upside down.
When it’s vertical, ‘V’ should always be on top, the red on the left, blue on the right.
@oldladypanties This is the one. I chose the darkest shade. I apply it in 2 layers (let the first dry for a few seconds) & it lasts all day. Only comes off properly with makeup remover.
I'm sure there are a handful of dog owners in apartments who carefully select the breed that's fine with being in a small apartment. But a lot of breeds I see walking around NYC simply should not live in small apartments, ever.
There are a lot of dog owners in cities who are essentially mentally torturing their dog by keeping them in apartments. No, your 30 minutes of walking a day and once-a-week dog park visit do not make up for the rest of the time.
@MadamAfrika My dog eventually came downstairs to “guard” me while I finish my steps but I can see his heart is not in it.
He’s just here to meet his KPAs 🤣
Community members can you recommend places in Joburg north or Pretoria that sell halal biltong? Recommendations in Laudium will be especially appreciated.
