"If we are going to beat this [#COVID19] virus we need good information and good information will only come when people feel that they may share that information without being punished for doing so"- @DrMikeRyan
We are deeply disappointed by the decision of several countries to prohibit travel from a number of Southern African countries following the identification of the Omicron variant.

Instead of prohibiting travel, the rich countries of the world need to support the efforts of developing economies to access and to manufacture enough vaccine doses for their people without delay.

Omicron is not a 'South African variant', it's a variant that was spotted & reported by brilliant South African scientists so fast the world has a chance to get on top of it. Could have originated anywhere.

Back to basics with the good ol’fashioned Gram stain. Ironically as a Microbiologist I never use a microscope. Nice to see some bacteria for a change. Perks of teaching a lab :) #teachingSTEM#environmentalmicrobiology
Providing utilities with reassurance that under the same conditions, drinking water quality will be consistent throughout varying stages of drinking water treatment and distribution. #phdpublished@watermicrobe@fanus_venter@Solize28@Dot_GLA@EnvSciTech
