Just another Libran searching for balance. I work (marketing), I study (postgrad psych), and play in between.

Area power outage update #4 Areas 7 and 2 could have power supply within the next few hours, or sooner, if all goes according to plan. @Eskom_SA has found the two high voltage power lines that tripped and caused the outage and they have been reconnected. #CTNews

I’m at the Montague sub-station where @CityofCT engineers and teams are working on power restoration. Switching on of Woodstock, parts of CBD and Tamboerskloof is beginning now. Teams continue to work on cable repair to restore other parts of CBD and Seaboard.

Area 7 power outage update Serious work is under way to restore power to Area 7 using different supply routes as one of the main feeder lines from the City's Acacia High Voltage Substation to Montagu Gardens and Eskom's Tafelbaai High Voltage Substation has been lost. #CTNews

Electricity notice: Due to a technical fault on the grid, Area 7 has lost its power supply. City teams are hard at work fixing the unplanned fault. Unfortunately, it is not clear at this stage when power will be restored. #CTNews

What diffs does who you hang out with make? Australian scientists analysed this: 1. Unvaccinated people = 10x more likely to contract #COVID19 than vaccinated people 2. Vaccinated people = 20x less likely to infect another person Read more: bit.ly/3cYLNPI

[Thread] 1. Is #VaccineRolloutSA moving fast enough to consume the jabs that SA will receive over the next 5-6 weeks? To answer that, we need to look at how many jabs we’ll have and how many daily vaccinations we would need to do to use the shots.

Interesting thread on the detection and cross protection of SA and Indian variants etc. Great work by SA scientists.
First genomic surveillance results from a traveler to India in South Africa. A patient at Tygerberg Hospital who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 about 3 days after traveling to SA from India. This first genome is a 501Y.V2 (B.1.351) and not the B.1.617 described in India.

What do we know about SA #CovidVaccines roll-out timelines so far? It might change (again), but here's what we know so far. @Bhekisisa_MG and @mediahackza created the timeline and @africa_datahub helped with creating the graphic.

The tallest tree in Wales got damaged by a storm and was supposed to be cut down, instead chainsaw artist Simon O'Rourke found a better solution to symbolise the tree's last attempt to reach the sky.

Well done, you have hoarded twice as many as you need, to the detriment of other countries. And you’re proud of this. “UK vaccine strategy 'paying off' as latest trials boost stockpiles” theguardian.com/society/2021…

A male president was so angry he lost that he incited a mob against the U.S. Capitol. I never want to hear again that women would be "too emotional" to be president.
