Nous sommes fiers et enthousiastes de partager la publication dans le @GHSPJournal de ce mois. Les co-auteurs/trices @ShaniTurke , @Marieme_Mia , @MissBa, @aminatawrites, Mohamed LY, Elizabeth (Beth Fewing) Larson, Elizabeth Arlotti-Parish, et @sfnehrling mettent en évidence un obstacle majeur à l'inclusion au sein de la communauté SRHR : "𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐥'𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐥𝐚 𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞́ 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞".

En tant qu'unité de coordination travaillant dans le domaine de la santé mondiale et représentant l'Afrique de l'Ouest travaillant avec de nombreux partenaires locaux et régionaux dans toute la région, il était important de mettre en avant cette question et la difficulté de naviguer entre les défis linguistiques dans ce domaine.

Cet article important reflète nos espoirs d'une représentation plus équilibrée et d'une plus grande inclusion que les acteurs de la santé mondiale recherchent depuis des années.

We are proud and excited to share the publication in this month's @GHSPJournal. The co authors @ShaniTurke , @Marieme_Mia , @MissBa, @aminatawrites, Mohamed LY, Elizabeth (Beth Fewing) Larson, Elizabeth Arlotti-Parish, et @sfnehrling highlight a major barrier to inclusion in the SRHR community.

As a coordination Unit working in global health and representing west Africa working with many local and regional partners across the region, it was important to bring forth this issue and the struggle navigating language challenges in this field.

This important article reflects our hopes for a more balanced representation and more inclusiveness global health actors have been probing for years.

NEW Research—First randomised trial of #remdesivir for hospitalised patients who are critically ill with #COVID19 suggests antiviral drug is not associated with significant clinical benefits vs placebo: study of 237 adults from 10 hospitals in Wuhan (1/5) https://t.co/K0h0qj4okw

The CDC has developed a new screening tool to help users understand #COVID19 risks and symptoms.

This tool provides guidance on self-isolating, how to monitor symptoms, and when to contact a medical provider. Remember, only a doctor can diagnose COVID-19: https://t.co/M6W2bavBpW

FACT: #COVID19 is NOT airborne.

The #coronavirus is mainly transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks.

To protect yourself:
-keep 1m distance from others
-disinfect surfaces frequently
-wash/rub your 👐
-avoid touching your 👀👃👄

Our #COVID19 map has been upgraded to report confirmed case data in counties and select cities in the U.S., rather than by state. These details will provide enhanced insights for the public and the health care & government workers responding to the crisis.

Well, been on hold for another 25 minutes trying to reach Customer 'Care.' @Delta - what does it take to get someone to even speak to me about my issue?? I am a Gold status customer - is this how you treat people who USED to only fly AirFrance and Delta? I'm out.

[Shani Turke @ShaniTurke]

@StacyTurkeOT @Delta Nothing. Says they're not open until tomorrow, but waited an hour on hold to learn that!

[Shani Turke @ShaniTurke]

Terrible experience with @Delta! Luggage sent thru JFK even though I never flew there, lost for 6+ days, sent to the wrong airport, and no one picking up on their delayed baggage line. Since I can't reach anyone via phone, I'm taking this to Twitter. Get your act together @Delta!
