@BBCWorld @xiyebastida Outstanding report!- well done, heartfelt and motivating.. the climate crises is no less critical than covid19 for us to understand. And once we understand we must in turn act... act to protect all our tomorrows :)

[BBC News (World) @BBCWorld]

How is coronavirus affecting climate activism?

For some it is a "double crisis" that has stopped big demonstrations - but others see it as bringing new opportunities

re @nprpolitics reports "Another 3.2 million people filed for #unemployment last week." Dang America... when is thi nightmare going to end? #GetAmericaBackToWork #endthelockdown #LetUsWorkAndFeedOurFamilies

[NPR Politics @nprpolitics]

Another 3.2 million people filed for unemployment last week.

That number comes one day before the release of the April jobs report, which is expected to show a staggering jump in the unemployment rate to around 16%. https://t.co/7VsMbbXpKX

#COVID19 "Tests both for the virus itself & the antibodies the immune system produces to fight infection... but they are not perfect- tests can come back w/ false positives, false negatives or confoundingly ambiguous results. Doctors cannot always offer definitive explanations."

re @GregAbbott_TX You are 100% correctand myself being an Aggie and having lived in Texas could not agree with you any less! Keep fighting the good fight. ty :)

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

Throwing Texans in jail whose biz's shut down through no fault of their own is wrong.

I am eliminating jail for violating an order, retroactive to April 2, superseding local orders.

Criminals shouldn’t be released to prevent COVID-19 just to put business owners in their place.

re @CNN This is a stupid idea: 20K #GA teens get #DriverLicense w/o a road-test just because state is "backlogged" due #caronavirus - something is seriously wrong w/ #Georgia... this is illegal or all 50 states should stop requiring a DL road test! #StopIllegalDriverLicenseAbuse

[CNN @CNN]

Nearly 20,000 teens in Georgia have gotten their driver licenses without taking an official road test, according to the state's Department of Driver Services. It's a way of handling the backlog of road test requests due to the coronavirus pandemic. https://t.co/g5baR6vqPT
