It's time to take #COVID seriously amid CDC warnings of 100 million COVID infections and a predicted resurgence of flu, which threaten to strain the health system this fall.cnn.com/2022/05/06/pol…
Instead @MASchoolsK12 have stopped testing and decided to let kids with #COVID return to class after 5 days only, while they are likely still contagious according to @CDCgov's own data.
This is a recipe for outbreaks! 🤒🤒🤒

One in five adults may develop #LongCOVID and kids are at increased risk of serious illnesses, like blood clots, and heart and kidney problems after COVID infections. cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…
This plan is a recipe for everyone to catch COVID 2-3x a year, which makes the world very unsafe for high risk folks. And it's worrisome because multiple COVID infections increase your risk of #LongCovid cnn.com/2022/07/05/hea…
The best way to prevent COVID transmission is for everyone to wear a #mask when #COVID rates are moderate or high. One person wearing an #N95mask alone is only protected for 1.25 hours if others around them are unmasked. cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspecti…
Because #COVID is airborne, individuals can't protect themselves alone. We need:
✅Back-to-school vaccine festivals
✅Mandate masks in schools & public buildings at start of surges
✅COVID school surveillance testing
✅Distribution of free, high-quality #N95 masks & tests

High risk people have the right to get their basic needs met without catching COVID.
1⃣Public places like stores & libraries should offer masking hours & improved ventilation
2⃣ Schools, universities, workplaces to should provide masked classrooms & offices &/or remote options
