Gov says it wants to build back better – but the road map does nothing to #ProtectEveryone already left behind.

We’ve teamed up with expert charities, NGOs + lawyers to present a new way forward that supports people to stay safe:

THE PROTECT EVERYONE BILL
We’ll only get through this pandemic if we #ProtectEveryone without exception.

In a few weeks MPs can reject Gov's Coronavirus Act – which has stripped away rights and left people behind.

And they can replace it with the Protect Everyone Bill.

🆕#ProtectEveryone Bill:

🔘Suspends the racist hostile environment
🔘Respects disabled people’s rights
🔘Ensures everyone has safe housing
🔘Makes sure everyone can meet their basic needs
🔘Protects protest rights
🔘Guarantees MPs vote on lockdown restrictions

And more.

We agree with the Prime Minister that we all are in the fight against #COVID19 pandemic together!

Migration status, religion of the patient or social status is and must be irrelevant to every human being’s dignity and their right to live.

🧵🔽
TV news channels & social media users in India who are demonising Muslims or any other communities must understand that this can lead to stigma & adversely impact public health.

They must heed @PMOIndia & stop blaming the Muslim community for the spread of the #COVID19 pandemic.

1: Yesterday, as thousands of stranded migrants gathered at #Surat & #Mumbai, it was a bleak reminder that the needs of the most marginalized remain an afterthought in designing responses to the pandemic by those in power.
2: As the Government of India extends the nation-wide lockdown, the authorities must remember that the battle against #COVID19 must not leave behind the poor & marginalized.

3: @AIIndia reminds the Central & state govts to widen the access to social security, safety & protection & ensure that people’s basic needs are immediately met, including adequate shelter, food, water & sanitation.

The fight against #COVID19 must be inclusive.

With no targeted relief by the government so far, except in Kerala, the #transgendercommunity in India is facing discrimination even in our fight against #COVID19.

On International #TransgenderDayOfVisibility, we call for more inclusive measures from the government. Image
The #COVIDー19 pandemic has heightened prejudices against #transgender persons, making it even more difficult for them to access food supplies, medicines or approach the authorities for help. Many also fear eviction from their homes. #TransgenderDayOfVisibility #ProtectEveryone Image
With understaffed, over-worked public hospitals, there is a concern around the accessibility to Antiretroviral therapy (ART) that HIV+ patients need each month. The anxiety is aggravated by a #lockdown that makes it difficult to reach #hospitals. #TransDayOfVisibility #COVIDー19 Image

1: We welcome the Maharashtra & Delhi Govt orders to release undertrial & convict prisoners. This is a progressive step to #protecteveryone in times of a global health crisis & in line with the recent Supreme Court judgement & intnl human rights standards. deccanherald.com/national/west/…
2: According to the National Crime Record Bureau, 2 out of 3 prisoners in India are #undertrials, i.e. individuals who are awaiting trial, without having been convicted of a crime.
3: @AIIndia's earlier #JusticeUnderTrial report highlighted that many are poor migrant labourers who come from marginalised communities.

How to reduce healthcare worker exposure and flatten our #COVID curve
This is what we’re doing w/ OBGYN faculty and residents
1. Separate providers: Inpatient & Outpatient
2. Divide in 2 teams: Active Duty (in person care) and Reserve Duty (Virtual), rotate on 2 wk basis (1/4)
3. Cluster L&D shifts: Same day team and same night team over several consecutive days
4. If pairing or teams, always pair/team the same people together and replace them as a team if one becomes ill (2/4)
5. Mandate each person wipe down the work station/keybboard before each shift and sanitize hands regularly – multiple users at computer stations is unavoidable across a day
6. Enforce social distancing by removing/re-arranging furniture in common areas (3/4)
