In the dark welsh valley,
On the mountain side,
Lay the little children
Close to where they died.
Their little lives are ended
Before they reach their goal,
Tender little children
Have paid the price of coal.

Today in Scotland a woman is so afraid in her own home she fears being killed by the man who tells her he loves her. Scottish crime figures show she might not make it to tomorrow.Today dozens of women will be raped and carry the trauma for the rest of their lives. Today hundreds of children will cower as their mothers become another domestic abuse statistic. If they survive, they will carry the psychological scars forever. It does not have to be this way. We can all do something right now to end this. Stand with us and say It’s Time…..share and repost if you support us

The inset shows the number of C. auris clinical cases across the United States from 2013 through 2022 (data are from www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/tracking-c-auris.html). In South Africa and India, C. auris accounts for up to 25% and 40% of candidemia cases, respectively, in certain health care settings.
