@nsgov The recommended ‘discuss with your business advisors’ is not a viable suggestion since the government r has not provided what the new funding model is or how the central body will run. Centres are going to close. @nsgov @BeckyDruhan

[Mallory MacDonnell @MalMacdonnell]

@nsgov Tying the arms of small business owners and forcing them to hand over their centres to an undisclosed ‘central body’ where they lose all decision making control. More centres will close March 31st before they blindly hand over what they have built over years.

Seafarers in fishing: A year into the COVID-19 pandemic https://t.co/d7JINI3M27
It outlines the marginalization of workers in fishing from labour rights provided to seafarers in other sectors, and how this has made them vulnerable to the negative impacts of pandemic management.

[Mallory MacDonnell @MalMacdonnell]

Our paper on the ways that the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted seafarers in distant water fisheries is published and publicly available.

[Marine Policy @PolicyMarine]

Great commentary by @dyhiapadilla on decolonising Ocean Science & Advocacy. The idea that we should stop eating fish ignores > 90% of global fishing effort is small-scale, but accounts for only 25% of catches globally, & billions of people rely on fish https://t.co/VZZkYIsroD

[Kashif Pirzada, MD @KashPrime]

Nova Scotia is giving everyone a masterclass on how to crush an outbreak. With a test positive rate of just 1% they are
- closing schools, non-essential businesses
- limiting essential retail to 25% capacity
- rapid testing 2% of the population daily - a huge undertaking

Like #COVID19, misinformation about how to cope, is spreading.
I've spent 40 yrs in the science-policy-politics space around invasive organisms. Scientists know that "just the facts" #SciComm isn't v effective. Tnx, @CBCToronto for letting me do something different! cc @YorkUnews
