The impacts of COVID-19 are driving worrying increases in malnutrition and health outcomes. However, there are clear actions that can be taken in both the near- and long-term.
"Without timely action, the global prevalence of child wasting could rise by a shocking 14·3% due to #COVID19, translating to an additional estimated 6·7 million children with wasting in 2020"

"Our best strategy in the age-old fight against the germs is our collaborative, data-based effort to study the world around us and within us. Our best strategy is science." @MaxCRoser explains how vaccines have dramatically improved humanity’s ability to fight infectious disease.
Humanity’s history is a battle against the microbes. And for most of our history we were losing very decisively.

This is a great loss for America, and for everyone who believes in making the world a more just place. John Lewis not only saw that our country could be better--he never stopped working to make it that way. We need leaders like him more than ever.

“It’s that clarity of language about the VALUE of black life in America that distinguishes #Juneteenth as emancipation day. But our ability to live up to that ideal as a nation is best measured in, the days, weeks, and years that followed.”

When I think of emancipation, I think of all of the people who fought for freedom but who never got a chance to experience it. The end of slavery did not happen overnight, it came from intergenerational work by those who fought for a better world they knew they might never see.

1. This is Opal Lee, the force behind the movement to make #Juneteenth a national holiday. Also known as Freedom Day, it is the day that commemorates when slavery officially ended in the USA. At 93, Mrs. Lee keeps banging the drum for the recognition of this day.
…in policing, criminal justice, education, health care, housing, the workplace and all other areas of their lives.
The horrifying killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and far too many other Black people—and the protests they sparked—are shining a light on the brutal injustices that Black people experience every day…

Today world leaders pledged to fully support @gavi’s mission to give more children access to lifesaving vaccines and build a healthier world. We are grateful to the donors who made this moment possible and to @BorisJohnson and @DFID_UK for hosting a successful summit.
The video of George Floyd’s brutal death broke my heart. I’ve watched the protests that followed and have felt overwhelmed with solidarity. And I’m listening as Black advocates and activists call on every American to treat racial justice as a shared responsibility.
I continue to be inspired by all of the volunteers (including many retired health care workers and teachers) on the front lines of the fight against coronavirus each day.
