@CryptoWhale What is really blowing me off is the live Q&A. It is supposed to take a minimum of 18 seconds, 9sec delay to, another 9 sec delay back, but it's seemingly only taking 9 seconds for a question to be sent and a response coming, pretty weird🤷🏾♂️
Dear @MoHCCZim,
I want to bring to your attention a potential outbreak of an unknown skin condition affecting children aged 5 and under in Bulawayo, seemingly spread via contact. To date, over 50 cases have been reported. The condition presents as blisters all over the body, extending to the underside of the feet.
@CityofBulawayo, please inform the city health department, as these cases have been documented in your clinics.
@DavidColtart@WHO_Zimbabwe.
Africa's beauty goes beyond breathtaking landscapes. It's the warmth you feel in every smile, the colours that come alive in their clothes, and the rhythm that pulsates through their music. It's a continent that bursts with life and energy!
Happy Africa Day to all! #AfricaDay
