There’s a lot of gray area between “it’s just a cold”and “shut down the school year.” And a lot more we could be doing to protect the most at risk. Our collective failure to acknowledge this middle ground continues to cause preventable harm and cost lives. ☹️

People have short attention spans these days, and Twitter and the media force us to focus on one thing at a time- but advocating for one Covid preventive measure doesn’t mean you’re against all the others. Lose weight AND exercise AND vitamin D AND vax AND mask AND ventilate.👍🏽

The @CDCgov indoor air standard for CO2 levels is <800 ppm. Here is me holding evidence that every one should #MaskUp because you can be stuck with unfiltered air inside a stranded flight waiting for an old plane to get repaired for no idea how long!😱🤬

As COVID begins to exponentially rise locally again, I feel it’s important to highlight just 4 things 🧵

I'm still masking because I've been very sick before and I never want to be that sick again I'm still masking because I don't want to be the cause of someone else getting as sick as I was even if it isn't the same kind of sickness

Them: "You're still wearing a mask?" 🤔 Me: "Yes. I still have no interest in catching COVID." 😊 🦗🦗🦗

Until now, in 16 years of writing Ask a Manager, I've never had a flood of people from one specific field write to me to ask about how to leave their field. But it's happening now with teaching -- every day I have another letter from a teacher who's trying to get out

3+ years into a pandemic, the general public is still generally confused about what to do when they test positive for COVID19. So let me walk you through what I, an infectious disease epidemiologist public health nurse, am doing since I tested positive on a rapid antigen today.

The litany of failed #LongCovid treatments is so upsetting, and coming from the #Lyme world, deeply familiar. After 3 years of gov forcing this mass-disabling nightmare upon us, WHERE ARE THE ANTIVIRALS? Where can LC pts get help??

reuters.com/world/europe/i… 🔴Why is this not a safeguarding issue for the department of education? We can reduce Covid infections in classrooms by 82% and we are not doing it? Instead we are just letting children be infected and reinfected.

While shopping at the grocery store, I say to the woman next to me wearing a KN95: "Great mask... you're one of the smart ones. Thank you for wearing one." She says, "I have cancer. Thank you for wearing a mask."

If your answer to "how can immunocompromised people can safely participate in society again," is that they should stay home indefinitely, then your public health policy is a failure.
