The continuous bombardment and the ongoing genocide pose a significant threat to their well-being. What pains me even more is that due to the lack of medications in Gaza, my Mom, who is a type 2 Diabetis patiant and was scheduled for an urgent eye surgery, have had no access to insulin or any medical care for the past 3 months. Some of my family members sought refuge in the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. However, my parents, and sisters have no alternative place to stay, forced to remain in the Nusierat refugee camp, which is now the subject of continuous severe bombardment since christmas started.” Am on my knees requesting for your donations. Please help where possible.

why is your paypal account owned by a random man from nairobi, kenya? also, PAYPAL IS NOT AVAILABLE IN PALESTINE. all donation posts i've seen with paypal links have someone else hosting their paypal and sending the money with proof to a palestinian account VIA MONEY TRANSFER.

There are a LOT of these scams going around lately and it's so disgusting. It happened in 2021 and it's happening now. this is a brand new tumblr account with no photographic proof that they are from gaza, suddenly posting a paypal link and spamming people with it.

listen. if you can 1) physically prove that you are in Gaza and post ANY sort of picture of yourself showing you're a real person connected to this account, and 2) explain who the hell "Samuel Obiya" is and how he's gonna get the money to you, then I will personally donate you $100. everyone else reading this, DON'T FALL FOR THESE SCAMS! there are a lot going around right now so make sure you're donating to help actual people.

There was a time when you could count on the left to defend science with the sort of zeal that would make a religious fundamentalist blush. Scientific knowledge was once gleefully wielded to expose and mock the magical thinking of creationists, anti-vaxxers, Flat Earthers, astrologers and homoeopaths. However, this staunch commitment to scientific empiricism has recently begun to waver. It is now increasingly coming into conflict with the new tenets of the ‘diversity, equity and inclusion’ (DEI) agenda.

You can see this clearly in the Biden administration’s proposed new guidelines for the US Department of Health and Human Services (HSS). As the Washington Free Beacon reports, staff working in public-health agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDA), which are overseen by the HSS, could soon be instructed to consider ‘multiple forms of evidence, such as indigenous knowledge’ when going about their duties.

Put simply, advocates of ‘indigenous knowledge’ argue that various cultures throughout history have their own ways of understanding the world. And these alternative, indigenous ‘ways of knowing’, they say, should be utilised alongside more established scientific methods in research and in policymaking.

Yes, some DEI advocates really do think that public-health bodies should seek the input of tribal elders and spiritual leaders – alongside, say, qualified physicians and epidemiologists. What’s more, they believe that racism is the only reason it has taken so long for indigenous knowledge to be utilised in this way. They argue that science is a ‘Western, colonialist structure’ that has only come to dominate our thinking thanks to white supremacy. This nefarious falsehood began in academia, with calls from activists to ‘decolonise’ science. Now it has reached the highest levels of the US government.

The Biden administration is not even the first Western government to sacrifice science to the DEI agenda. Last year, the government of New Zealand decided that science classes in schools should teach that Maori ‘ways of knowing’ have equal standing to ‘Western science’. Scientists who objected to this found themselves under investigation by the Royal Society of New Zealand. Three of them, including one of Maori descent, resigned from the society in protest.

The claim that science is ‘Western’ is absurd, of course. One of the many wonderful things about science is that it does not discriminate. Science is a universal, cross-cultural concept. It invites anyone and everyone to participate and contribute to our growing understanding of reality. Science does not care about what you look like or where you come from. All science cares about is whether your methods and conclusions are sound enough to survive scrutiny. This clearly cannot be said for indigenous knowledge.

This is why there aren’t any ‘indigenous’ ways of flying an airplane that supersede our scientific understanding of aerodynamics. Or why the NHS doesn’t offer exorcisms as part of its mental-health services. A blood test administered in a clinical setting will yield the same results whether it’s carried out in London or Nairobi – because science actually works anywhere you do it. It’s about the ‘how’, not the ‘who’.

If every single piece of scientific knowledge were erased tomorrow and we had to start all over again, we would eventually come to the same conclusions as we have today. This is not true of indigenous knowledge, because, unlike science, it is not underpinned by logic and reason.

We all know that treating indigenous knowledge as akin to scientific evidence is a bit silly. But I suspect that is probably the point. Like with trans-rights ideologues, today’s self-professed ‘anti-racists’ like to frame statements of the obvious as akin to acts of bigotry. It gives them enormous power over the rest of us. We are all essentially being dared to say that relying on indigenous knowledge is a terrible idea. Of course, if you do say this in the wrong circles, you will be accused of racism and you will be silenced.

With modern-day anti-racism, the goal is not to address actual inequalities or to improve the material wellbeing of oppressed minorities. The real aim is to tear down anything that is perceived to be ‘white’ or ‘Western’. And the fact that science is now being placed in the firing line, thanks to racial identity politics, should worry us all.

The suggestion that the gold standard of science is a uniquely white or Western standard is as ludicrous as it is racist. It perpetuates the deeply prejudiced idea that non-Western or non-white groups cannot grasp the basics of science, and therefore it would be unfair to expect them to. This is tantamount to claiming there is an innate quality possessed by white Westerners that makes them uniquely suited to the study and advancement of science. This notion would not seem out of place at a KKK rally, yet it is a depressingly common view among so-called anti-racists. This is the bigotry of low expectations.

The push by the White House to incorporate indigenous knowledge into public-health policy is unbelievably reckless. It arrives in a post-pandemic context when public trust in our scientific institutions is already at an all-time low. Surely, that trust will now only fall further. After all, how can we possibly trust that those tasked with looking after our health are doing so effectively, when their objectivity has been so clearly compromised?

Science often gets things wrong, of course. But unlike indigenous ways of knowing, science rewards you for catching errors. It incentivises the pursuit of truth over accepting received wisdom. There are no religious commandments or cultural dogmas dictating the scope of scientific investigation. Science simply finds out ‘what is’ – and to hell with any sacred cows that are slaughtered along the way.

Standards of objectivity are essential when it comes to science and public health. We should make no apologies for defending them from the encroachment of pseudoscience, whatever form it comes in.

Kenya/IMF: Align Economic Reform with Rights

(Nairobi) – The Kenyan government and International Monetary Fund should work together to ensure that the IMF program and its implementation align with human rights, Human Rights Watch said today. The focus should be on progressive revenue generation and accountability over public funds.

Following the recent nationwide protests, President William Ruto declined to sign Finance Bill 2024, which included regressive tax measures that risked undermining rights. Any alternative measures should relieve economic pressures by addressing the root causes of protesters’ anger.

“The widespread outrage sparked by proposed taxes on goods like sanitary pads and cooking oil in a country where corporate tax evasion is endemic should be a wake-up call to the Kenyan government and the IMF that they cannot sacrifice rights in the name of economic recovery,” said Sarah Saadoun, senior researcher on poverty and inequality at Human Rights Watch. “Economic sustainability can only be achieved with a new social contract that raises revenues fairly, manages them responsibly, and funds services and programs that allow everyone to realize their rights.”

Finance Bill 2024, in the context of an IMF program with Kenya, was expected to raise US$2.7 billion in additional revenues in the upcoming fiscal year, in part to meet IMF targets. The bill included several new tax provisions, such as removing exemptions from certain food items and a mobile money transfer tax, that would increase the cost of essential goods and services and fall heaviest on Kenyans with lower and middle incomes, as well as already marginalized groups such as women.

The IMF program was approved in 2021 to support Kenya’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic and global inflation, as well as devastating cycles of droughts and floods made worse by climate change. An increase in interest rates has also forced the government to spend upward of half its tax revenues to service debt.

The Kenyan government has other options to raise revenue progressively and enhance trust in the government, Human Rights Watch said. Kenya’s tax-to-GDP ratio is around 15 percent, which is the minimum threshold according to the World Bank for a viable state and economic stability.

Hello!

Your fav ships from lcdp?

canon, fanon, all of them you have! 😊

Hi! Thank you for the question, I'm shy but I love talking about LCDP <3

Canon ships - I'm a basic gal, Berlermo and Serquel are my favourites. Monica/Denver are sweet too but I didn't get very attached to them.

Non canon ships - Ha, this might be controversial but I have moments where I like the Nairobi - Berlin ship. Of course, I wouldn't want to inflict Berlin on Nairobi but hmmm, some of their scenes definitely had something that caught my eye. Even just in canon I really liked their hate-love, frenemyship they had going on in the Mint and I do think in an Alternate Timeline where Andrés was written to be 100x less of an Evil Bastard, and if the writers had gone down a different route, they would be the IT couple of the show. They're both such fan favourites and Pedro and Alba already have such a lovely friendship, it would have been amazing. Somewhere some version of me is living in a universe where we got this ship instead of Tokrio and I envy that!

I also kinda like Pagota (Palermo and Bogota) LOL. What can I say, Roccinan was very convincing about them when s5 first aired and I got Pagota-pilled.

Other favourite non canon ships include Sergio x happiness, Andrés x living, Marseille x being appreciated. Thank you once again for the ask and I'd love to know what are your favourite ships, canon or otherwise?

Building Footprint Detection/Segmentation in Africa

Building footprints for Africa are mainly available via the Google Open Buildings and Microsoft Building Footprints datasets. Both are known to be of limited accuracy and hard to refresh due to the very high cost associated with VHR imagery at a continental scale. The African Building Foot-Print (ABFP) layer of Atlas AI is a low-cost alternative computed from high-resolution multispectral base-map imagery refreshed on a monthly basis.

The images showcase the results on model inference over Nairobi, Kenya. The colored heat map shows model confidence, and white polygons infused, show the corresponding findings from the Google Open Buildings dataset. Both results are superimposed on Airbus VHR imagery over the targeted area.

Note the frequency of regions in the ABFP heat map for which no white polygons are present.

Disclaimer: the ABFP is not a commercial product. It is a layer produced for research purposes only.

Arthroscopy surgery for hip problems: what patients should know

Hip problems can significantly impact your quality of life, making simple activities like walking or climbing stairs a challenge. One advanced treatment option that’s gaining popularity is arthroscopy surgery. Let’s dive in to understand what this procedure entails and how it might help you regain your mobility from the best doctor for arthroscopy surgery in Nairobi, Dr Ankit Dave.

What is Arthroscopy Surgery?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows orthopaedic surgeons to diagnose and treat joint problems. During hip arthroscopy, your surgeon makes small incisions and inserts a tiny camera (arthroscope) into your hip joint. This camera displays images on a screen, guiding the surgeon as they work on your hip using miniature surgical instruments.

When is Hip Arthroscopy Recommended?

Dr Ankit Dave, being one of the best orthopaedic surgeons in Nairobi suggests hip arthroscopy if you’re experiencing:

1. Persistent pain that doesn’t respond to conservative treatments

2. Labral tears (damage to the cartilage that surrounds the hip socket)

3. Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)

4. Loose bodies in the joint

5. Synovitis (inflammation of the joint lining)

6. Certain hip joint infections

If you’re dealing with any of these issues, it’s crucial to consult with the best orthopaedic surgeon in Nairobi to determine if hip arthroscopy is right for you.

Benefits of Hip Arthroscopy

Compared to traditional open surgery, arthroscopy offers several advantages:

1. Smaller incisions, resulting in less scarring

2. Reduced pain and blood loss during surgery

3. Faster recovery time

4. Lower risk of complications

5. Often performed as an outpatient procedure

These benefits make hip arthroscopy an attractive option for many patients. However, it’s essential to discuss the potential risks and benefits with the best orthopaedic surgeon in Nairobi before making a decision.

What to Expect During the Procedure

On the day of your surgery, you’ll be given anaesthesia to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure. Your doctor will make 2–3 small incisions around your hip, each about 6–10mm long. Through these incisions, the surgeon will insert the arthroscope and surgical instruments.

The procedure typically takes 1–3 hours, depending on the complexity of your condition. Most patients can go home the same day, but you’ll need someone to drive you as you’ll still be groggy from the anaesthesia.

Recovery and Rehabilitation

Recovery from hip arthroscopy is generally quicker than traditional open surgery, but it still requires patience and dedication. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Initial recovery: You’ll likely use crutches for 1–3 weeks after surgery. Pain and swelling are normal but should gradually improve.

2. Physical therapy: This is crucial for a successful recovery. Your therapist will guide you through exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and range of motion.

3. Return to activities: Most patients can return to desk jobs within 1–2 weeks and more physical jobs within 3–4 months. Full recovery, including a return to sports, typically takes 4–6 months.

4. Follow-up appointments: Regular check-ups with your surgeon are important to monitor your progress and address any concerns.

Remember, everyone’s recovery is different. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to ensure the best possible outcome.

Is Hip Arthroscopy Right for You?

Hip arthroscopy can be life-changing for many patients, but it’s not the right solution for everyone. The best doctors for arthroscopy in Nairobi will recommend treatments based on how advanced arthritis you might have and might recommend alternative treatments if your arthritis is clubbed with certain other conditions.

Living with hip pain can be frustrating, but there’s hope. Thanks to advancements in medical technology and surgical techniques, procedures like hip arthroscopy are helping many patients regain their mobility and quality of life.

If you’re considering hip arthroscopy, take the time to educate yourself about the procedure and find a surgeon you trust. With the right care and dedication to your recovery, you could be back to your active lifestyle sooner than you think.

Remember, your health is an investment. Don’t let hip problems hold you back from living your best life. Reach out to a qualified orthopaedic specialist today and take the first step towards a pain-free future.
