Många av er frågar vad ni själva kan göra för att hjälpa oss judar nu. Mitt svar: Säg ifrån när folk sprider judehat. Låt det inte gå obemärkt förbi bara för att det är obekvämt att säga ifrån. Ge antisemitismen det sociala pris som det förtjänar.

@HelenBranswell They are testing far too little for comfort. Positivity was almost 50% in the latest update, and around 30% over the past week.

There is also still a large backlog, with 183 tests in North Kivu that have not yet been analyzed.

@EuropeElects Best poll ever recorded for FrP 🥰

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@Gust_2319 @EuropeElects Because no government has been formed yet.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@TheMemeticist It makes no sense that they ruled out all those suspected cases with fewer than 1,000 tests analyzed.

How can you rule out a case without testing?

@DavidVivia55726 @KinderheimRune Nah, Rødt has become pragmatic.

They focus mostly on the economic issues and expanding the welfare state.

SV and MDG blocked the government formation at first, due to nonsense policies around Palestine and Oil extraction.

@Nassreddin2002 They received 7.92% (+4.91%) in the 2022 local elections, so that would represent a massive improvement.

They also received 4.11% in the regional elections, so if they can replicate that success at the national level, they could surpass the electoral threshold.

@BNOFeed They removed some suspected cases after finally getting more testing capacity up and running.

648 tests have now been analyzed, compared to 403 in the previous update.

However, 24 additional confirmed cases analyzed in Kinshasa, according to the report, have not yet been added.

@kakape What is the timetable to roll out drug and vaccine trials in DRC?

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@TheMemeticist According to the report, one volunteer was also stoned to death in Rwampara 😳 (in French)

@TheMemeticist The DRC Ministry of Health released two consecutive updates for May 25 and 26.

They also appear to have stopped reporting the contact tracing follow-up rate..

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@TheMemeticist Africa CDC’s projections are most likely if the spread continues in the already affected areas.

I think that the models underestimate the risk for sustained spread in bigger urban areas (Goma, Bukavu, Kisangani and Kinshasa).

+ spread into South Sudan and Burundi.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@BNOFeed No daily update from the DRC Ministry of Health yet..

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@HelenBranswell According to NYT.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@jmagoola @KrutikaKuppalli @MinofHealthUG Maybe, we’ll probably get more information soon.

They were quick to clarify that the previous cases involved known contacts and a Congolese traveler, which makes me suspect these new cases may be unrelated.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@JeremyKonyndyk Unfortunately, I think the international response will only truly scale up once cases start appearing outside of Africa.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@BNOFeed There seem to be reporting issues in the epicenter city of Mongbwalu, as no cases were added between the previous update and this one.

That likely explains the lower number of newly reported cases today.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@HelenBranswell 48% positivity rate.

1,817 contacts traced, with only a 20% follow-up rate.

The outbreak response is scaling up far too slowly: only 211 tests have been analyzed 9 days after the outbreak was declared.

[Liam Olin 🇮🇱🇺🇦 @olin_liam]

@HelenBranswell I’m very worried about testing capacity in South Sudan and Burundi.

There’s a real risk that cases may only be detected once a large number of people are already infected.

Have WHO or other partners deployed mobile laboratories or testing resources to those countries?
