“...the normal treatment for blood clots is to administer anticoagulants like heparin—but heparin can be harmful to people with CVST, so the FDA and CDC want providers to be aware of this rare condition and to know they must treat it differently.” vitals.lifehacker.com/what-you-need-…
I already tweeted this link, but I am sharing it again with that highlight, as, from all I am reading, it seems to be the big thing to know.
It isn’t ONLY the rare blood clots, but the KIND, which need DIFFERENT treatment from most, should they occur.
(As always, I’m not a medical professional; in this particular case, a woman of the ages a week in on an J&J vaccine, so reading a lot today!)
in other words, as I understand it, if I develop a blood clot short term here, it is really important that it be known that I had J&J, because how I should be treated would be different than the usual

OKAY, #MAEdu, we've got the House FY22 Ways and Means budget coming out tomorrow, so it is a time for a thread (with some help from the Muppets):
AS ALWAYS, the first order of business here is to look at Chapter 70 funding:
We should OF COURSE first recall that we are a year into implementation of the first year of the Student Opportunity Act...except we aren't:

I am not a “hate read” sharer, but I believe, as Dr. Angelou held, that when someone tells you who they are, you should believe them.
Thus I think it important to note that this piece is written by a member of the Massachusetts Board of Elementary and Secondary Education.

It neatly encapsulates a chosen ignorance of both the pandemic’s actual impacts and the true responses of district leadership, while demonstrating a marked callousness to the pandemic’s deadly effects. #MAEdu

“As of last week, School Committee member Tracy O'Connell Novick was the only School Committee or at-large City Council candidate to break the 300-signature barrier and get on the ballot, with 310 signatures.” telegram.com/story/news/202…
First, thank you to every last one of you that had anything to do with this. Doing this in a pandemic is *not* something one anticipates; I only managed because of all the help I had!
Second, because I get asked, *yes,* you can donate to my campaign here: tracynovick.org/?page_id=33

Page 90: "During fiscal year 2019, a significant amount of supplemental budget transfers (from both Police Department salaries and other City Departments' budgets) were required to fund Police Department overtime expenses. This was also the case in previous fiscal years."
"This is indicative of original budgets that are not accurately estimating annual costs and/or a need for improvement in managing overtime costs within budgetary constraints."

aka: this is the sort of thing you'd want to have Council being sure was true of the budget coming soon
(again, not my purview, but if you're interested, it's in the F&O backup) #worcpoli

#WorcSchools finance and operations subcommittee meets at 5 tomorrow, so doing some agenda review this afternoon: worcesterschools.org/wp-content/upl… Image
(No, I didn’t print out all 171 pages, but I write all over budget and transportation updates.)
It's 171 pages because it has the three year student activity fund audits (pages 6-65) as well as the annual city audit (pages 71-138)
