The tyrant of Burundi demands that everyone join his party; those who don't are beaten. Those who try to flee are killed if caught.

US-supported Salafi Arabia bombed an MSF clinic in Yemen.

Brazil has advised women not to get pregnant now, because a virus once in a rare while causes microcephaly.

On the other hand, a substantial reduction in births would be quite useful too.
