On #IDAHOBIT2021 we celebrate global movements for LGBTI human rights and announce the launch of data collection for the 2019-2020 Global Resources Report which maps the global LGBTI funding landscape. Make sure your grants are counted! http://submit.globalresourcesreport.org/

In the midst of a devastating COVID-19 outbreak, India's west coast is now being battered by Cyclone Tauktae. It's a harrowing challenge to evacuate so many people while keeping them safe from COVID. Grateful, as always, for @ajws partners on the ground. https://nyti.ms/3oueskU
Right now, Cyclone Tuaktae is hammering the shores of western India with heavy rainfall and damaging winds, compounding the crisis for a country reeling from a record COVID-19 outbreak. https://n.pr/2RrzJPY

More than 4,000 people died from COVID in India yesterday. This pandemic is not over.
In January, Pfizer announced that it was joining Covax, agreeing to contribute 40 million doses at a not-for-profit price. So far only 1.25 million of those doses have been shipped out, less than what Pfizer produces in a single day.
