Wow, this graphic showing wealth to scale and in relation to other things blew me away.
I study such things for a living and still found it very instructive. Keep scrolling to the right.

1/ Many of you ask me why I take the COVID-19 outbreak so seriously.
Current numbers of cases and deaths are *not* why.
๐ A thread on why Iโm worried and what I do personally in this situation.

Speaking with a researcher in Kenya, I'm struck that a major obstacle to his work is lack of access to online journal articles. Journals should make access from low-income countries free of charge!

Nel 2019 una persona ogni 3 ha perso la vita nel tentativo di arrivare in Europa lungo la rotta dalla Libia.
Non esiste un porto sicuro in #Libia, ma nessuna nave governativa o di ONG effettua operazioni di ricerca e soccorso.
E' chiaro che questa situazione non puรฒ continuare.

In 2019, on the route from Libya to Europe, 1 person has died for every 3 that have made it to European shores.
There is no safe haven in Libya, but no State or NGO boats carrying out search & rescue.
Absolutely clear, things cannot continue as they are.

Until recently, most community colleges used a single test to determine whether students would be placed into remediation. Then @jscottclayton & others found that 25-50% of placements were inaccurate. GPA was more predictive. Now CCs are shifting to multiple measures.

BREAKING: Tonight the Trump administration filed documents that donโt dispute the recent report that there may have been thousands more separated kids. Theyโre arguing it would take too long to figure out where those kids are because they have no tracking system.

It's grad school application season. If you're applying from a lower income country or family, here's an important piece of information that many don't know:
Most US schools will waive the application fees for you if you cannot afford them! Just email the school and ask for it.
