[Dr Takeshi Kasai @takeshi_kasai]

Having kept #COVID19 at bay for most of the pandemic, #Kiribati 🇰🇮 has been working hard to prepare for inevitable surges.

The Ministry of Health & Medical Services has activated partnerships to respond and save lives, now faced with community transmission of the virus.

"There's every reason to believe we've already got an out-of-control #epidemic," @CrabbBrendan tells @abc730 while urging the Australian government to respond quickly to the #COVID crisis in #PNG @billbowtell @AusHCPNG @pngimr @ZedSeselja @MarisePayne

32% of 🇵🇬 #COVID19 cases and 42% of total deaths to date have been reported IN THE LAST 7 DAYS. The surge is well and truly underway, and will continue to increase after the last 2 weeks of mass gatherings

[Dr Pamela Toliman @PamelaToliman]

I wish I didn't understand superspreader events & their potential for disaster in the context of COVID-19. Yesterday's State Funeral, seeing so many people gather to farewell our Grand Chief Sir Michael Somare, absolutely broke my heart for so many reasons 💔 God tasol nau #PNG

[Karen Hammad @KarenHammad]

@SarahBorno @CENAorg @ThisEDLife Thank you 🙏🏻 I hope this changes also

[Sarah Bornstein @SarahBorno]

Bit slow in listening to this but excellent points here. In my 10 years of ED nursing the only disaster training I've done, I spent hundreds of my own dollars to do, in my own time. I hope this changes after #COVID19.

Did the grocery shopping today. Can everyone please remember we still need to physically distance? The risk of COVID remains. Also far too many in supermarket I visited, to enable social distancing. #COVID19Aus

[Mark Forrest @Obidoc]

Our #ICU already has more #COVID19 cases than 2 weeks ago as more people go out. Ignoring #lockdown has us seriously worried for the next few weeks. #pleasestayathome

Increasing evidence demonstrates the link between 2019-nCoV & other similar known coronaviruses circulating in 🦇 - more specifically those of the Rhinolophus 🦇 sub-species.

@realDonaldTrump Only a complete psychopath could declare "all is well" with missiles fired at US troops because YOU aren't man enough to face your own Impeachment without using our soldiers as distraction bait.

RESIGN.

[John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz]

@realDonaldTrump Our troops are getting bombed solely because you acted recklessly in order to distract from your rampant criminality, and then rage-tweeted us into an unnecessary conflict.

But sure, "All is well."

[Angela Belcamino @AngelaBelcamino]

Dear Twitter,

Right now would be a great time to suspend Trump's account before he starts a World War using your site.

Sincerely,
Everyone

[Karen Hammad @KarenHammad]

‘So far, so good’, yet the previous sentence of your statement states that assessment of casualties is taking place??

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

All is well! Missiles launched from Iran at two military bases located in Iraq. Assessment of casualties & damages taking place now. So far, so good! We have the most powerful and well equipped military anywhere in the world, by far! I will be making a statement tomorrow morning.

[Anthony Pryzibilla @anthonypryz]

After months of planning today our team are involved in the opening of the new #CalvaryAdelaide hospital. We’ll be safely moving approx 50 patients from the #CalvaryWakefield. Thanks to @njoros01 and @InstructorStu for their planning efforts so far.
