Relevant - often wondered about this when giving talks on my work
Trigger warnings are increasingly ubiquitous, but are they effective for reducing the risk of trauma exposure?
New research finds they are ineffective, and possibly harmful, if used in a tokenistic way, write @jegildersleeve + colleagues (@unisqaus). bit.ly/3vfvNlr

A visual argument for vaccines, in five tweets:
1/ A ward of polio victims, incarcerated inside "iron lungs" in 1950s America. Many are children, their lungs paralysed, unable to breathe unaided. Thanks to vaccination, no-one has caught polio in the UK since the 1980s.

No, no, this isn't a camp, this is a work meeting. You are now foreign secretary. Don't worry you're far better than the last one. #BorisJohnson #workparty #boris

4. Was the age profile of #COVID19 admitted patients different from other waves?
Yes. They were younger.
- 80% of admissions = people younger than 50 (this is also the case across Gauteng province, where Tshwane is located)
- 19% = children aged 0-9
- 28% = 30-39 years

3. What do we know about admitted patients' vaccination status?
Snapshot of 2 Dec:
Of 38 adults in #COVID19 wards:
* 6 = vaccinated
* 24 = unvaccinated
* 8 = unknown vaccination status
Of 9 patients with COVID pneumonia
* 8 = unvaccinated, 1 is a child
* 1 = vaccinated

Being smart is not the only thing that matters. Being generous and kind, being able to listen to other people, are the qualities that are much more needed to be present in a person besides being smart or intelligent.

President Biden failed to answer the fundamental question. What will America do about Afghanistan’s looming humanitarian crisis? Who will protect the men, women, and children left behind?
