This memorial is dedicated to the Sinti and Roma victims of Nazi Germany. It’s estimated that around 220,000 to 500,000 people were killed during the Porajmos, better known as the Romani Genocide. This mass murder was not recognized as genocide by the German government until 1982.

This memorial is dedicated to the Sinti and Roma victims of Nazi Germany. It’s estimated that around 220,000 to 500,000 people were killed during the Porajmos, better known as the Romani Genocide. This mass murder was not recognized as genocide by the German government until 1982.
The memorial was designed by Dani Karavan and unveiled in 2012. The government had agreed to build the memorial in 1992, but it suffered years of delays and disputes.
The monument is composed of a dark, circular pool of shallow water with a triangular stone set in the center. It’s designed to represent the badge the Sinti and Roma were forced to wear by the Nazis in concentration camps.
A fresh flower is laid on the triangular center stone daily. The words to Auschwitz by Santiago Spineless are engraved around the edge of the memorial.
Recently, activists and families have voiced concerns about the plans of the German rail company, Deutsch Bahn, to build an underground line that would run under the memorial. They fear the construction of a new rail line will result in the memorial being dismantled.
While the rail line says these fears are unfounded, the Sinti and Roma communities still have concerns for the future of their memorial.

Researchers at Pfizer-BioNTech announced Thursday that they have started a new clinical trial designed to assess whether a third dose of their COVID-19 will bolster the protection it offers against new virus strains.
Rare Disease Day falls on the last day of February, so this year it’s the 28th February 2021. It’s a day to shine a light on the medical conditions that aren’t as common but are no less important, meaningful and potentially disruptive to those that live with them.
Raising awareness is important for the general public, policy makers, industry representatives, researchers, scientists, healthcare providers and patients alike. Every blog post, tweet, Facebook post and conversation counts, each taking the world a step closer to reducing stigma, sparking innovation and encouraging compassion.

At least one in eight health workers lost in the pandemic died after the vaccine became available, analysis shows
As healthcare workers in the US began lining up for their first coronavirus vaccines on 14 December, Esmeralda Campos-Loredo was already fighting for oxygen.
The 49-year-old nursing assistant and mother of two had started having breathing problems just days earlier. By the time the first of her co-workers were getting shots, she was shivering in a tent in the parking lot of a Los Angeles hospital, because no medical beds were available. When she gasped for air, she had to wait all day for relief because there was a critical shortage of oxygen tanks.
