Senator @Jo_Comerford & I have sent @MassGovernor a letter RE: the evolving surge of #COVID19MA.

The plan needs boost'n.

The #1 #COVID19MA countermeasure being promoted (vax & boosters) needs a new goal.

A 🎯will give practitioners & the public something to team up & aim at.

Coordinated, collective public health action that supports our healthcare workforce & each other. Image
Using a vaccination goal we set earlier in 2021 our total, able to be boosted population, is approx 4.1M as of tomorrow 12/22.

We reached 4.1M fully vaxed back on 6/22.

Today, ~45% of those eligible in MA have been boosted.

Boosters offer the best protection against #Omicron Image

My friends in the public health universe are really concerned about this; I've received this several times. I'm especially concerned about this piece:
“We have also not endorsed them as they are not
sufficiently nuanced or inclusive of health and safety concerns for students, teachers and the
community."

This bill will ensure housing stability during the coronavirus outbreak, protecting public health objective by allowing people to stay home and avoid unnecessary in-person interactions.

In uncertain times, everyone should be able to feel safe and secure in their homes and apartments, and I was proud to support this legislation.

The bill also protects small businesses if they face difficulty paying their rent. I urge @MassGovernor to sign it swiftly!

#COVID19MA Depois da polêmica sobre os 107 respiradores para o combate ao #coronavírus no estado, é preciso que façamos alguns esclarecimentos.
Dos respiradores trazidos com urgência da China,100 são bastante modernos e outros 7 foram criados especialmente p/ hospitais de campanha. São aparelhos que dispensam canalização, já possuem concentrador e gerador de ar comprimido.Ou seja: funcionam e salvam vidas onde estiverem!
Reafirmo que todos os aparelhos já foram testados, certificados e calibrados. Não seríamos irresponsáveis de utilizar equipamentos que poderiam causar perigo aos pacientes e risco aos nossos profissionais.
