I'm so sorry for the late notice, but we've had to cancel tonight's data meeting.
Thursday's Kitchen Table Conversation is still on, I hope to see you there!

Very happy to speak with Prof Moriarty's group tonight. The session is public, and I will be giving an overview of basic study designs. The first step in learning to interrogate medical literature!
Why are so few people getting the latest Covid-19 vaccine? https://t.co/cUtmNe4kjA by @dylanlscott via @voxdotcom
Lots going on: Misinformation, ideology, and, yes, vaccine fatique.
And "...worrying signs of a more general resurgence in vaccine skepticism"
@celinegounder: "It’s become part of somebody’s identity that they’re not somebody who gets Covid shots in particular..."

The first trucks of WCK food made it into Gaza today—these supplies went to our partners @AneraOrg who’ve been working tirelessly feeding thousands of families each day. Our team is doing everything possible to get many more trucks of aid as quickly as possible to people in need.

A Toronto woman who uses a power wheelchair had her ventilator disconnected and a lift fall on her head, all on a single journey, as Air Canada staff struggled to transfer her between the aircraft and her wheelchair, a new Marketplace investigation shows. https://t.co/YHnqOomGhU

WCK is proud to be able to support the heroic @AneraOrg team in Gaza who, in dire circumstances, continue to cook and serve thousands of hot, fresh meals each day—today the team delivered 30,000 portions of fish & rice to families staying in shelters in Khan Younis and Rafah.
Despite total communications loss & increased bombardment, WCK partner @AneraOrg's team in Gaza provided 85k meals between yesterday & today to UN shelters in Rafah & Khan Younis. Their bravery ensures much-needed aid reaches Palestinians & anyone else in need.

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.
In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!
Palestinian families are fleeing south from Gaza City to shelters in Khan Yunis. There, @AneraOrg—our local partner—is distributing thousands of meals daily to displaced people. In the last 24 hours, we have helped provide 30,000 nourishing plates of food.
#ChefsForThePeople
We, as @UNRWA, are mourning the loss of 14 colleagues.
At least 400,000 people are now displaced in our schools & buildings in📍#Gaza
Old people, children, pregnant women, people with disabilities are just being deprived of their basic human dignity. This is a total disgrace.
