This is what we’ve been using to help us make decisions on what we will and won’t be doing right now. No model is perfect, but this is the best I can find for now. @CovidActNow, data and predictions to help America reopen safely: covidactnow.org #COVIDActNow
I can see that in my county, cases are currently shrinking, which is good news! But I can also see that our test positivity rate is high enough that we can’t really trust that number yet, so for now we’re still staying inside. It’s helping me to stay realistic but hopeful 🤷🏻‍♀️💕 ImageImage
I found this post to be incredibly helpful, and informative, and hopeful. I love a clear way forward with lots of good explanations of why & how. Plus illustrations & gentle hope. 💙 ncase.me/covid-19/
tl;dr - CONTACT TRACING. Test, trace, isolate. Assisted by a privacy-first app with publicly available code 🙏🏻🙏🏻

(I wrote my reps to ask for this, which will probably do nothing, but at least I will have tried!!!!!)
Text “ContainCovid” to 50409 (@resistbot) to send a pre-written message to your Governor requesting that they prioritize testing, tracing, and mask usage 🙏🏻#TestAndTrace #Masks4All go.shr.lc/2KtZBDu
This is another very useful tool that estimates the odds someone has COVID in groups of different size, based on county. You can slide the group size up and down to see how it changes the odds.

@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally I heard it as “it takes 7 “contacts” (not “no’s”) before someone is ready to receive the gospel,” with the idea being we never know what good we can do/focus on member work, but can see how it would get very quickly and easily confused, esp by eager young missionaries.
@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally Like, I heard it as, “it takes 7 contacts, and you never know which one you are, so offer the gospel to everyone (but if they say no it’s okay because someone else could be the 7th one.)” Not, “knock on someone’s door 8 times until they say yes.”
@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally It was more to remind us not to pre-judge people, & to remind us it’s okay to let people go & respect their boundaries and NOT hound them if we weren’t their “7th person.” But I can see how it could be used the wrong way!

If you’re married irl, are you married in your dreams?
If you’re in a significant/serious/long-term relationship irl (that may or may not include marriage,) are you in your dreams?
Is there a pandemic/elements of the pandemic (masks, social distancing, etc) in your dreams?

We found out last night Conor’s university is explicitly prohibiting teachers from telling their students if another student they were in class with tests positive for COVID. Which seems like.... something people should know?
I 100% believe we need to protect students’ medical privacy; teachers should take great care not to reveal the identity of the person who tested positive. But to not be allowed to tell students they’ve been exposed to a positive case seems.... very dangerous???
Instructors are also *not allowed* to move the class online after finding out a student has tested positive (and that all their other students have been potentially exposed.) They can *request* to move online, but it won’t be automatically granted.

How long do you think universities will last before going all online
How long do you think K-12 schools will last
I’m torn because “when will things become unsustainably unsafe” and “when will governments actually shut everything down” are two (unfortunately) RADICALLY different questions 🙃

Just received our copy of HOLY TROUBLEMAKERS & UNCONVENTIONAL SAINTS and I am BEYOND delighted; look at how amazing this looks 😍😍😍 ImageImage
It highlights the stories of women, queer & trans people, indigenous people, Black people, & others who have been left out of the story for too long, & it isn’t limited to Christian “Saints.” & it’s BEAUTIFUL. ImageImageImageImage
Short, engaging, biographical stories with questions to ponder at the end.

We got our copy for free not in exchange for a review but because I emailed the author & said we’d love a copy but couldn’t afford one. If you’re able to support them, please do! holytroublemakers.com ImageImageImageImage
