Africa still bears a disproportionate burden of health emergencies and disease threats. Ten years after the #ebolaoutbreak in West Africa, we revisit the lessons and how we can be better prepared for the next outbreaks. Africa learnt and established Africa CDC; so did #Uganda and controlled #ebola in under 70 days! These lessons need to be actioned so that the world get safer, faster. History will be kind to those who take action; and document those who don’t!

OFFICIAL: Highly contagious Polio disease has been confirmed in Gaza 😭💔 Polio has been confirmed in Gaza as a result of apartheid Israel’s genocide, systematic decimation of health systems and its blocking of humanitarian aid, including clean water, hygiene supplies and basic medicines into the Gaza Strip. Algeria has called upon the United Nations to deploy a large-scale vaccination campaign by the World Health Organization to prevent the spread of Polio in Gaza. The Palestinians in Gaza can now not only be killed forced starvation, bombardment, white phosphorus, injuries, gunfire, dehydration, falling buildings, mauled by animals, extreme temperatures (and so much worse) - but they can now also be killed by widespread man-made diseases. THIS IS A GENOCIDE. NAME IT! “There is no clearer sign that what we are seeing is ethnic cleansing than the spread of Polio in Gaza - if this was about Hamas why would you NOT vaccinate Palestinian children? Civilians? Because this was and remains about extermination of the indigenous Palestinian population.” - Dr Myriam Francois on X in response to the Israeli ‘military’ announcing it will vaccinate their ‘soldiers’ in Gaza against Polio but leave Palestinian civilians exposed to the virus. hashtag #FreePalestine hashtag #BreakTheSilence hashtag #PalestinianLivesMatter hashtag #Polio

We generally try not to be too alarmist when writing on airborne disease and indoor air disinfection. But it is good to be informed on possible new risks. Legal immigrant are tested for infectious disease and must have proper immunizations. Immigrants who cross the border illegally are obviously not subject to the same controls. Tuberculosis and many other diseases that have not been common in the US for many decades are still common in many developing countries. Some are highly contagious. TB, for one, is transmitted through indoor air. As more people cross our border without any healthcare screening, it will be wise to keep an eye on any uptick in previously controlled diseases. We believe it is already wise to invest in solutions that will cut down on colds, flu, strep, Covid, and other airborne diseases. This will become even more essential if there is a resurgence in diseases that we once had mostly under control. Please contact us if you are interested in learning more.

Is our fight against Polio or Polio Workers in Pakistan? Polio, a disease once on the brink of eradication, has made a haunting return to Pakistan after being declared polio-free. With the new eradication campaign launched, we're once again hearing stories of violence and refusal against the team from all across the country, making it highly difficult to vaccinate the country. Now, this situation isn't just about polio anymore, it's about the battle for public trust, the bravery of healthcare workers, and the broader fight for a healthier future. But the question remains: Will Pakistan ever be truly polio-free, or are we doomed to repeat the cycle? What do you think? Got a topic you want us to cover in our short explainers? Drop your suggestions in the comments below! #AikMinute #Polio #PakistanPolio #PolioEradication #PublicHealth #PolioFree

“JERUSALEM (AP) - A campaign to inoculate children in Gaza against polio and prevent the spread of the virus began on Saturday, the Health Ministry said, as Palestinians in the Hamas-governed enclave and in the occupied West Bank reeled from Israel's military offensives.” A private company could be held legally liable for the “collateral” damage to Palastinians in Gaza to thier invasion of Gaza. But this could be case in any military intervention. So, we can cataforize all of those as “the cost of doing business” as defined by the Geneva Conventions. So, these civilian deaths are “Idemnified” by international law. But those same provisions also make it clear that once a country controls an area they are COMPLETELY and SOLEY” responsle for the non-combatants in that area. Since Polio is a well known scientific fact and its it’s it treatment is well known then the Israeli Govt is now going forward “COMPLETELY AND SOLEY” responsible for ALL MORBIDITIES AND DEATHS of Palestian deaths in Gaza. And so is the US Governemt and every US Comapny that have or are supply arms to the Israeli Govt. Just like US citizens have made successful legal claims in U.S. courts on the Saudi Govt for 9/11 Palestians can and should do the same to the U.S. Govt and U.S. defense companies.
