11 yo asked what I'd say if I could broadcast a message to everyone on Earth. I told him I'd tell them whatever Noora Health teaches new mothers about taking care of their babies after they come home from the hospital.

(1) Today was the release of the #PIRLS2021 reading survey. It showed that in SA 81% of SA Gr4's cannot read in any language (up from 78%). Of 33 countries tracking losses from 2016 to 2021 SA had the biggest decline, setting us back a decade! 😰 PDF: drive.google.com/file/d/1N71Y_x… 🧵

Happy to see discussion of Digital First Healthcare given the attention it deserves at #WHS2022 in an excellent keynote panel. However… we will know we have reached this goal when we no longer have separate tracks/discussions for digital at health conferences
