Very proud of our progress with SORMAS
One of the lessons from 2014/15 West African Ebola outbreak was an urgent need to move from paper-based to digital surveillance of infectious diseases in #Nigeria
SORMAS was developed with @Helmholtz_HZI & has now grown beyond Nigeria
#TodayInNCDC
In collaboration with states & partners, we convened an after-rollout review workshop on the deployment of @SORMAS_NG
@SORMAS_NG is an open-source software adopted for real-time disease reporting & analysis of disease surveillance across all 36+1 states in Nigeria

We now know that both droplet and airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 are important.
So mask wearing, social distancing, good hand hygiene, moving activities outdoors, improving indoor air using ventilation, and protecting high-risk workers are key.

This @nataliexdean piece is smart, nuanced & pretty much right on
We all want a vaccine quickly
But we need a vaccine that is safe and effective
Am constantly asked: when will we have a vaccine?
Answer? When data says we have a safe, effective vaccine

Don’t think you have much credibility. Fauchi is a hero, for sure.
No he really doesn't make a lot of mistakes. He bases his views on COVID on science. As new science emerges, he may change his views, as he should. Undercutting one of the top federal scientists on COVID is a sad road to a worsening COVID crisis. nbcnews.com/politics/politic…

Early treatment of viral haemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) like #Ebola and #LassaFever at a health facility increases your chance of survival. By going to the health facility the moment you have symptoms, you protect your family and community and help stop the spread of the disease.
