"But if the plight of adults with long COVID remains poorly understood, the millions of children who have it worldwide are practically invisible, their suffering — and the formative years they're losing to this disease — obscured by the myths that COVID is "harmless" for kids and the pandemic is "over".

Subject: Urgent Aid for Sudanese Refugees in Ethiopia-Amhara Region

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to urgently request assistance for

6,080 Sudanese refugees who fled Olala camp due to militia attacks. They are stranded in the bush between Olala Camp and Gondar City, and have been without food for five days.

The group includes children, disabled individuals, and elderly people in dire need of shelter, food, and water.

Immediate intervention is crucial to prevent further suffering.

Thank you for your prompt attention.

Sincerely,
[Your name]

The decision to buck federal #government guidelines was one of many that led to serious repercussions for Texas residents who rely on Medicaid. Among them were #children forced to forgo or postpone lifesaving operations, #doctors say.

Rashida Tlaib submits names of children killed in Gaza into US Congressional record

The Gaza Ministry of Health released a 649-page document with the name of every identified Palestinian killed in Gaza.

The first 14 pages alone are babies under the age of one.

This is not self-defense. This is genocide.

#Harris said her heart broke for the community in #Springfield, calling it a "crying shame" that elementary #school #children, "dressed up in their best" for school picture day, were forced to #evacuate because of the #threats.
"This is #exhausting, & it's #harmful & it's #hateful...& grounded in some age-old stuff that we should not have the tolerance for," Harris said. "So, let's turn the page & chart a new way forward & say [to #Trump], 'you can't have that microphone again.'"
