Everyone is fighting their own battles. Sadly, we are losing many battles daily! Heart-breaking & demoralizing days! One after the other. But this is a war we must not loose!
We will do more. We all need to do more. Top, bottom, in-between, everyone.
#DoWhatYouCan
#StopTheSurge
Most countries waiting for Covid19 internal transmission to be proved locally before lockdown. Then each get the proof. Lockdown. Then wish they'd done it a week or two earlier! And warn others to not make the same mistake.
Days later, another country join the "most countries".
Some of our elderly loved ones who got COVID & survived 1st or 2nd waves didn’t recover their lungs back to pre-covid state. Their post-covid immunity maybe waning. Some of them could possibly get infected in this huge 3rd wave! It’s a scary thought. May Allah protect them.
This is ONE battle. And we are all on ONE side. Single enemy: Covid19. Now is the time to be united. Set aside all differences.
Be kind to each other. Help each other. Look out for & look after your neighbor.
Stay home. Take all precautions.
In-sha Allah, We will persevere.
Be kind to each other. Every fellow human being; local or foreign.
Use all the preventive information you have heard past several weeks.
Be attentive to messages and instructions from
@HPA_MV
@NDMAmv
&
@MoHmv
Togetherness, obedience, preventive practices... InshaAllah.
As a final word; for what’s in Sunnah on Hijama, get guidance from Islamic scholars
I am not an authority on those.
If you feel offended that I cannot medically recommend it, I am sorry.
Please don’t use this to question my Islam.
Allah knows what’s in my heart. ☝🏼
In the past day: more than 80 kids tested positive for Covid!! They are too young to be eligible for vaccination at present. Most cases are likely from contact with a positive family member.
We can only protect them by keeping ourselves safe. Reduce your risk behaviors.
Stay steadfast.
Stay strong.
Stay home.
Time for greater resolve to get us through this painful and difficult time.
May Allah keep us strong and save us from Covid19 soon.
We may have just kept the storm at bay with all the interventions. But the storm is still there. And it’s gaining strength, decimating the rich and powerful countries.
Let’s not let our guard down. Keep at it.

We are not safe until everyone is safe!

Excellent design!
Well done.
If someone can support in making more, this will be great.
These are masks that everyone can wear to protect the community from droplets.
Today my eldest son got his O’L results. Alhamdhulillah he did very well.
Many thanks to teachers of Kalaafaanu School for the extra effort throughout, especially 2019. As parents, we are forever grateful.

If she has checked a reference to be sure about: a finding, a diagnostic criteria, a dose, an interaction, side effect, or anything that is needed to make her work safer she has my praise. Well done.
I check drug doses. I even google to find resource.
Stay safe people.
Stay at home as much as possible. Only go out for essential needs. Let that be an assigned person.
Even if you have a number of people at home, if you can stop contact with an infected person, you can remain safe.
Assigned person takes extra precautions.
Due to the extreme surge in

we have suspended visiting to admitted patients until further notice. Please adhere to our instructions and cooperate with us for the safety of patients and healthcare professionals.
#StaySafe
Institutions are apparently asking their staff to get Certificates or Letters from doctors regarding their chronic medical condition to qualify them for special protective duties/leaves.
They flocking to healthcare providers for this is not right. Stop unnecessary visits.
Yesterday I learnt that one local institution had recommended & allowed one of their staff to practice self-isolation for 14 days on returning from Italy. No Covid-19 symptoms at all. Full pay entitlements. No deductions from leave entitlements.

This works only when everyone does it.

In the TV hand washing video some eagle-eyed viewers noticed that I touch the tap to open/close it. Good spotting. Best technique would be to not touch the tap. Close the tap with the elbow/tissue paper.
Don't leave tap open: wastes water.
Close tap using elbow/tissue.
I have been preparing to go for Umrah this Ramazan. I can’t leave with this dark cloud over me. I seek forgiveness from everyone for this and any other acts/words from me that has hurt or caused grievance. If there are specific grievances, let me know.
Please don’t queue up at hospitals.
Register on
You will get your date, time and vaccination center assigned and informed.
Don’t go too early.
Don’t crowd. Don’t go in groups.
Maintain hand-hygiene, physical distance and strict mask-use.
Be patient.
“Thuhthu darifulhu” (baby) is a handbook (in Dhivehi) for parents; covering common events, issues, remedies, when to seek help….etc. related to newborn baby.
Thank you
@stoplc
for including this in the newborn pack distributed for every baby born in the country.
We are seeing a sudden heavy surge in patients presenting to ER with vomiting (some with vomiting and diarrhea). Kids and young adults too.
Please ensure water consumed is clean. Boiled and cooled / filtered water is a safe option.
Good hand and personal hygiene are important.
She is perhaps one leading medical warrior in Maldives' response to Covid-19 from the start. So proud and thankful that we have people like her (Dr Fathmath Nazla Rafeeq) and Dr Nazla Musthafa.
With masks the guidance is that unexposed public don’t NEED to wear masks. You still CAN even if it’s not necessary.
Mask supply is NOT inexhaustible. Hoarding and wasteful use WILL lead to shortage. Then those who ARE exposed - patients, their close contacts and HCW run out.
I guess, with the
@HPA_MV
Hotline, its time
@Dhiraagu
and
@OoredooMaldives
step into help? I guess they already are.
Thats one HOT line now.
There could be telecom solutions to help make the line better?
Just thinking out loud.
Gloves!!
Gloves don’t self-disinfect!
Gloves can get contaminated!
Gloves are just a second skin!
Contaminated gloves can be source of infection for others and even yourself; when you touch your own body or clothing.
To make this less of a sacrifice, help the healthcare workers get more PPEs for a potential case surge.
There is never enough. And think beyond Male’ area.
#LessRamzeeStuffAndMoreRealActionPlease
All the messages that have come my way, I want to take positively and constructively. There are many lessons to learn. May Allah forgive me, guide me, help me learn and keep me safe, out of trouble. Aameen.
This will be one of the most informative 12 minutes on general information about Covid19 you could spend today. Watch every second of it.
Dr Bruce Aylward, WHO expert on a TV show talking about Covid19.
Let’s do something about this. If any of us witnesses someone throwing these on the road:
•Call them at that time
•Inform them it’s a habit that can spread disease
•Ask then to pick it up and dispose where he/she has access to a bin.
Similarly for other such acts.
Mask ves alhan jehey, ekamu ellaalany magumahchah.
Soon I'll see enough to rival that of cigarette butts and supari packets 😑
Discard responsibly people!
URGENT!! We are seeking O+ve blood donors for an ongoing emergency. We are exhausting our stock at
@BloodBankADK
.
Any O+ blood donors able to urgently donate, please present to ADK Hospital Blood Bank!
Even during Covid19 crisis, there would be other medical emergencies - heart attacks, strokes, and many more.
We must ensure that some healthcare facilities can treat these cases segregated away from potential Covid19 cases.
For flu & colds use Flu and Fever clinics.
Please help blood banks get enough blood for the needy. Especially for those with Thalassemia.
Get permission from
@PoIiceMv
to be out during the lockdown. You will be issued a permit to travel to a donation center.
Sometimes the very obvious things and information will NEED to be said. Not because people don’t know. But to have it said, advised, informed gives it clarity & importance.
Many look for guidance, not because they don’t know. The guidance gives confidence.
It is very sad that
@VaguthuOnline
and Iru news published an incorrect translation of the tweet with a false message in their headline attributed to me. I would request both to PLEASE kindly correct those errors. That has led to much pain & suffering. For others and me.
Salute and respect to all the

staff, soldiers + others at the frontline managing the quarantine & isolation facility.
Also much respect to the nursing & medical colleagues ready to serve anyone who needs in-patient care at Dharumavantha Hospital at

Social distancing.
Being responsible to stop transmission.
Make your plan. Individuals, Groups, Workplaces, employers, employees..... everyone.
Do what you can.
The culture of prevention need to start BEFORE the disease starts to spread amongst us.
To wait to do it AFTER/ONCE it gets here may be a little too late for some.
We only faced a day of military violence against us in our lifetime on 3rd Nov 1988! It’s still vivid in our mind!
The violent destruction of Gaza and its people is beyond imagination! It’s genocide! Humanity is in question as we witness
#GazaHolocaust
!
#CeasefireNOW
Let’s follow the good news with further resolve to maintain vigilance against Covid19.
All energy to prevent local spread, treat cases to recovery, trace all contacts + quarantine/isolation and sustain ALL preventive steps at all possible times.
Keep at it.
Some difficult conversations in the DMs today with people who can't vaccinate their kids/loved ones because of medical conditions and very young age. These are the ones who'd be protected by good herd immunity with widespread vaccine uptake. Stay Safe. Reduce exposure.
Safety of frontline hospitality workers at resorts / hotels / entry+exit ports is a concern that needs to be addressed. Maldivian or otherwise.
Prevent every possible case.

#SocialDistancing
We have the usual common colds, fevers almost all the time in Maldives. Peaking now and again. On top of that we expect Flu as well.
As most of the symptoms of Covid19 are quite similar, particularly at the onset, concerns maybe high.
We are pleased to announce the establishment of an online flu clinic from tomorrow onwards. If you have flu symptoms, please call us & make an online appointment. Our team will contact you for medical attention while you are at home.

A good demo of why the steps of hand washing are important. Unless all surfaces are cleaned, the hand is not clean.
Good lesson.

It is sickening to see civil servants and clinical practitioners abused to fire political shots like this.
What was said could have been said without referring to the staff or using that particular picture.
Strategy to stop manufactured misinformation:
Do not share any messages that you get unless they are directly from sources with knowledge, expertise or authority on the subject.
Messages attributed to such sources, unless directly from the source - don’t spread.
To make this less of a sacrifice, help the healthcare workers get more PPEs for a potential case surge.
There is never enough. And think beyond Male’ area.
#LessRamzeeStuffAndMoreRealActionPlease
It is true that individuals who are elderly & those with pre-existing medical conditions are more likely to have severe Covid19. But no one is invincible!
Teaching about Covid19 to my colleagues I am sharing Chinese data showing that 5.9% of kids get critical disease!!
More cases also means more HCWs becoming contacts within community - needing quarantine & more of them getting positive too.
More cases to look after but less HCWs on the floor to provide care.

The longer we get in White Level the more time we are getting for everyone to get ready. Not just the state. The state, healthcare providers, employers, workers, businesses, . . Individuals. Everyone.
Breakfast IS the most important meal of the day. From children going to school to adults going to work.
It energizes the body & mind to learn, be active & achieve results. Sustaining us until the next meal.
Too often & for far too long, have we neglected this meal.

We are each different. What is possible for me, may not be possible for others. What I can choose, may not be available choices for others. What works for me, may not work for others.
Here are some lifestyle health choices that have helped me:
Personally, I feel compelled to state this: I am a practicing Muslim. I believe in the tenets whole-heartedly. Without any doubt. Any depiction otherwise is false. I am sad that my words appeared as such.
Philanthropists, the rich, businesses, corporations, anyone, everyone:
If you have ways and means to bring in or make PPE gowns, N95 masks, goggles, gloves, shoe covers; bring them in.
Leave the toilet rolls! Stop clapping on balconies!! That doesn't save lives. PPEs can.
This is the next best opportunity to establish an out-of-hospital central blood bank.
For donors to donate in a relative safer environment.
To remain in service despite hospitals becoming restricted zones.
Establish safe collection points away from patient/treatment sites.

After many, many years, went to Galolhu Stadium with my son to see a local football game. My father took me to my first game - same teams, same stadium! Great atmosphere.

great win!
This looks like an excellent way to try tracing Covid19.
Everyone on Android, go for it. Install and start!
Us folks on iOS will follow as soon as it’s on AppStore.
This is important.
Those in good health & no symptoms or contact with a case of Covid19; please consider & be encouraged to donate blood to Maldives Blood Services at Thalassemia Center.
This could be done in an organized, no crowd, non-camp process to sustain social distancing.
Kids often do the sweetest things.
And the students from
@GhiyasuddinIS
have done that and more. Thank you students, teachers and management of GIS for the donation of PPE face shields to
@ADKHospital
❤️ from all of us.
