2024 Outbreaks in India and counting.
🔴 H5N1 - multiple states
🔴 Zika - multi state
🔴 Chandipura virus - Gujarat
🔴 Nipah - Kerala

🧬 Genomes in public domain - Zero

Can anyone explain why publications take precedence over public health for some scientists ?

[Rema Nagarajan @RemaNagarajan]

While people with fake disability certificates sail thru UPSC/DoPT's checks, they block genuine candidates from getting into civil services
Kartik, a candidate with muscular dystrophy cleared UPSC exam FOUR times, but sent back without being allocated ANY service

▶️ #Preparedness is key to timely identification of outbreaks and instituting control measures.

The present suspected #Nipah case in Calicut would possibly be a testament to the proactive policies and resource deployment in anticipation.

Hope other states will learn & follow.

"Since the adoption was almost finalised, we went to see the child with our family and friends. We had bought her dresses, a feeding bottle, toys and a gold chain.“

Flew via @airvistara last night from BLR-DEL and was hit by the realisation (yet again) that the system does not care about disabled people.

Long thread. 🧵

At last @mcc_raghuram @shankaraa - the last piece has fallen into place to enable blind screenreader users!

@SpokespersonECI please encourage other states to follow suit in remaining phases so blind screen reader users can cast informed, independent secret ballots.)
