👩🏻‍⚕️ Lisa Baum, Lead Occupational Health & Safety Rep. of NYSNA @nynurses defends enhanced precautions for airborne pathogens. We're sharing her powerful testimony from recent CDC HICPAC meetings to introduce this exemplary leader to #MaskTogetherAmerica community. 🧵(7 reels)
1/4: Lisa is a new member of HICPAC (fed. advisory comm. apptd to advise HHS+CDC on practice of infection control/strategies for surveillance, prevention/control of nosocomial infections, antimicrobial resistance & related events in health care.)
bit.ly/_HICPAC
2/4:HICPAC voted 11/15 to downgrade prevention of airborne pathogens, ignoring public concerns that helped drive CDC to reject the initial proposal. Lisa Baum voiced concerns but was drowned out by other members who minimized the value of protections & risks of spreading viruses.

@ashishkjha COVID Impacts: Immune Dysfunction @MSKCancerCenter

A March 2023 study published in the journal Immunity looked at how the immune system responded to both COVID-19 infection and COVID-19 vaccination. What the researchers found was that the magnitude and quality of CD8+ T cell activation and expansion after two COVID-19 vaccine doses were considerably lower in people with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to people without prior infection, suggesting that previous infection can influence the T cell response to vaccination. Taken together, the researchers write, "these findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection damages the CD8+ T cell ...

@KFF @POTUS @KFFHealthNews @SenMarkey @RepAOC @PeoplesCDC @LongCovidFam @MarkedByCovid @Survivor_Corps @shvintage @MsJulieSLam 249,000 people have lost Medicaid health coverage in one state alone, Florida. In an ongoing health crisis, the most vulnerable people can’t seek care because they can’t afford it. Meanwhile there’s no property tax in Florida.

Emergency repealed, @CDCgov lost power to collect data. The most vulnerable now losing health coverage. It's discriminatory to take health coverage from ppl with medical conditions in a country without a safety net, where medicine/hospital bills can cause ppl to become homeless💔
