@DDOTDC Looking forward to seeing this on the other end of West Virginia.

Small machines, big impact! Our #DDOTDC Snow Team is all smiles as they they work on the West Virginia Ave bike lane, keeping paths clear and ready for riders. Watch them in action!

“Even when children seek care from a health care provider for their diarrhoea, as most do, they often do not receive oral rehydration salts, which costs only a few cents and has been recommended by the World Health Organization for decades.” #GlobalHealth @gavi
