favoriteMost African governments just don’t have any reliable data to make decisions, it’s all reactions. For instance night curfew has no impact on #covid19 but will be exploited for regimes who think of dictatorships.
2. Govt needs to distribute masks for free. 3. Govt needs to ensure everyone has access to food, water, energy, shelter . This can be done in several ways. 3. Think of lockdown ONLY and if ONLY data shows it makes sense and with specifics
You cannot punish millions of low income people when the current data shows most infections and transmissions are not from them. People who are struggling with basics like food, water, shelter etc should not not be made to suffer. They need the basics
If I were president of Kenya I would implement some of these to fight #Covid19: 1. Find ways for mass testing to have more accurate data. Everyone is using assumptions without data. All the interventions are not effective coz they are not backed by data.
Amazon is one of the great beneficiaries even at this time of crisis. It’s plain selfish and wrong for its employees not being paid while sick twitter.com/RBReich/status…
Yes bro! And also the ability to survive in a complete lockdown unless governments provide basics. twitter.com/jitokayumba/st…
If I were President of Kenya right now in the midst of the #Covid19 - I will make sure everyone has food, shelter, energy and water, at bear minimum. Then a whole of things can fall into place...
This is commendable . Lockdown for poor households should be followed with basic needs like food and water . twitter.com/bonfaceosano/s…
This is a really good suggestion that the Kenyan government can start with. Rent relief for tax rebate and employers keeping jobs for tax rebate @StateHouseKenya twitter.com/honkabogo/stat…
Hope @MOH_Kenya makes sure these equipment doesn’t end up in private clinics or individuals selling them exorbitantly and yet they have been donated! Some few people in Kenya are corrupt beyond humanity. Thank you @JackMa for the kind guesture. twitter.com/JackMa/status/…
Many countries are now resorting to some cash transfer program as was advocated by @AndrewYang . It shows that this is something that should probably be considered all the time to cushion the vulnerable.
