Woke up to a video of a Mariupol defender begging the world to get them and civilians out, because they are outnumbered and have days, if not hours left to live. There are more than 500 wounded soldiers and over 1000 civilians sheltering there at Azovstal

@ASCD98 @grantshapps I agree. Ecuador has far higher vaccination rate than many countries - I leave this World Bank blog here to show that this decision to keep Ecuador in the red list is not a facts- based decision. https://t.co/MJfIyhFH5c

South America has gone from representing 44% of global Covid deaths to just 9% over a span of several months.
- Tons of antibodies from horrible 2nd wave
- Effective (if tardy) vaccination w/ little to no hesitancy in population
- Gamma crowding out delta

Today we move one step closer toward a world without polio. This is an incredible milestone that’s worth celebrating. It is also an important reminder of what can be accomplished when we work together toward a common goal. https://t.co/Exxks9jF4q

#Refugees and #IDPs are increasingly vulnerable to the effects of extreme weather - camps are being hit by heavy rains, floods and landslides, and many are at risk of secondary #displacement. Piece by @NavinSinghKhadk for @BBCScienceNews, ft. IDMC data. https://t.co/3wVmFtrxMy

Nicolás Maduro has seen his foes in the region rattled by violent protests, his allies bolstered at the polls, and attempts to ostracize him diplomatically fail miserably. "People here are resigned," said one analyst. "They feel like Maduro has survived" https://t.co/vwYtD9Qlfe

@UN_PGA @ArmeniaUN @Brazil_UN_NY @GermanyUN @indonesiaunny @JapanMissionUN @UNLibyan @RMIMission @NamibiaUN @NLatUN @PLinUN @ROK_Mission @ONUVENuevaYork Extremely disappointing to see some of these countries, such as Venezuela. It just gives Maduro’s government more strength, and ignores the suffering of the people. The UN should definitely reconsider
