A new study published by @TheLancet found "more pregnant women died, experienced complications or delivered stillborn babies during the pandemic than in previous years."
This is unacceptable 🙅
We must do better to prioritize women.

Today 62322 cases, 1041 deaths. The NHS cd be overwhelmed in the next week, not in 21 days. Scientific advice was crystal clear from SAGE on Dec 22: Lock down. The PM ignored it, waited two weeks, then told parents it was safe 2 to go to school. He is entirely to blame.
Very excited about this new publication by @SHMayhew on "Health systems software factors and their effect on the integration of sexual and reproductive health and HIV services": https://t.co/sQy9dADIjY

“To inform the Kenya Ministry of Health National #COVID19 response taskforce strategy, we @Pop_Council utilized rapid phone-based surveys to collect data on knowledge, attitude and practices related to COVID-19 in 5 informal urban settlements in Nairobi... (1/4)
Can people stop calling pregnant women in labour “known or suspected COVID in labour”? It’s not just demeaning, it’s annoying! This is 2020 and health workers should know better than continuing the habit of labeling clients with the name of their disease condition. #COVID2019
We're concerned that in some countries the level of political commitment & the actions that demonstrate that commitment don't match the level of the threat we all face. This is
