This is so utterly appalling. Paradoxically if Canada were to withdraw its designation of USA as a safe 3rd country, that would be welcomed by Trump & ICE. But lives mustn't be sacrificed for a policy. Mon cœur est avec la famille de Pierre Damas Bel. www.cbc.ca/news/world/p...

NEW: A clinical trial led by Oxford researchers suggests that a single-dose rabies vaccine could provide safe, long-lasting protection in both adults and children. Rabies kills an estimated 59,000 people each year, mainly in Africa and Asia, with children at greatest risk ⬇️ #WorldImmunizationWeek

A young child sits on an adult’s lap while a healthcare worker wearing gloves administers a vaccine injection into the child’s upper arm. The adult supports the child, who looks down at their arm.

Lots of "commentators" are rewarded for spreading lies and convincing you that everything is getting worse and you should be afraid. The good news is it's not: homicides at their lowest level in 50 years and killings involving a knife are at their lowest recorded level www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

bbc.co.uk

Knife killings down by 21%, figures show

The annual ONS crime data also shows overall recorded homicides have fallen.
