Queer data from @census2021 just dropped: ➡️ 3.2% identify as LGB+ 🏳️‍🌈 ➡️ 0.5% are trans or non binary 🏳️‍⚧️ But there are missing data - 7.5% did not respond to sexual orientation question, meaning just 89.4% identified as heterosexual. As a queer statto, some early reflections ⬇️

Tried to create a relaxing atmosphere in my statistics practical today by putting on a YouTube fireplace video but there are about 8 large screens on the walls in the room so instead it looked like we were all in hell

The Ugandan Minister of Health & head of Ebola response are asking for help with the Sudan virus outbreak. And that help needs to come fast. When Ebola outbreaks aren’t contained early, they can become devastating epidemics. Countries with resources to offer must step up. Now.
