The first of additons for the Covid-19/pandemic TW that Mohammad created:

Public Health Agencies search tiddler version 2 (incorporating some core lingo for Internationalization (we hope-- didn't test it ><) - lingo text marked with " * " )

Testing by individuals in other Google search engines (other than the standard English) is highly desired

This can be used in any other TW as well, its fully self contained and will create its own data tiddler ("nha bookmarks", for bookmarks) and temp tiddlers as its used.
It was created with the idea of his work becoming a general pandemic safety guide (there will be others in the future, SARS, bird flu, etc were wakeup calls-- Covid 19 is a sucker punch)
 
This tiddler draws from the reference wikis search of Ref Collective and takes advantage of Google having an OpenDirectory type result for searches for government agency-- guarantying those links will appear first in search results.
There's also a tentative translate function leveraging Google translate-- which opens Google Translate in a separate window prefilled with instructions that can be translated to simply paste (control-V) which will insert the tiddler's text (which was loaded into clipboard by the translate button) so the tiddler's text can be translated quickly and easily.
A bookmarks section (with editor and search) for saving links for future use. (made possible by Jed Carty's code)

There's still work that needs to be done (more leveraging of core lingo for internationalization) but the tiddler is functional. (except for annotations for bookmarks-- have to add annotation creation to the bookmarks editor-- but bookmarks can be created/saved/edited/listed & searched)

next: version 3 and a fact check tiddler
public health agency search bookmarksv2.tid
