No matter what side of the aisle you are on, you should be appalled that a billionaire thinks he has the right to buy elections like this.

Indeed, your chances of long term complications - cardiac, neurological, fatigue related - go up with every infection. Logarithmically. You want to avoid this. Wear a mask and get boosted.
This is no joke, folks, and research suggests that the percentages only get worse with subsequent infections.
Want to stimulate the economy? Don't get COVID.
Wear a mask.
Circulate the air.
Stay safe. (and productive)

I’d also suggest wearing a high quality mask in crowded places, public transportation & travel.
It baffles me why the @CDCDirector can’t bring herself to suggest proper respiratory protection for respiratory viruses. Masks, ventilation, filtration reduce virus transmission.
Respiratory viruses are on the rise across the United States. Take preventive actions to stop the spread of viruses like flu, RSV, and #COVID19:
🩹Get an updated COVID-19 vaccine & get your annual flu vaccine
🏠Stay home if you are sick
🧼Practice good hand hygiene

Some periodic thoughts on today's White House Summit on Indoor Air Quality...
@AshishKJha46 kicks off by drawing parallel with water. Important that policy solution for water was NOT to put everything on people to boil own water, but to have institutionalized and systemic change

One of the first targets of SARS Cov 2 is nerves
Here, it infects peripheral nerves and "establishes productive infection"
Yes, it is neurotropic.

Masks are a critical part of the tools we have to help keep us healthy during a pandemic with a respiratory pathogen. Here are some common questions about masks that we hope will inspire you to wear one that fits, is comfortable, and provides protection. healthandwelfare.idaho.gov/d…

Ya know, I was skeptical about the COVID vaccine at first. So I did my own research.
I called my mom and said “Hey, mom, did I go to med school?”
She said “No.”
I said “Thanks for helping with my research.” and called an actual doctor.

Came to @WoodlandEmpire hoping for an Idaho 97 IPA to soothe our COVID weary hearts. All out, but pineapple and carrot cake IPAs were still yummy! #theidaho97 #GetVaccinatedNow #WearAMask

There are 269 COVID+ patients across all facilities @StLukesHealth
If you’re following, that’s a net ⬆️ of 30 patients over yesterday (considering all admissions and discharges)
Is anyone paying attention to this trend? This is not sustainable.

Each day the question is how can this possibly get worse. Worster. Worstest. And it does.
New records set daily, cases >25,000, hospitalizations >16,000, 31.9% test positivity, increasing deaths

We are officially back to getting crushed by #COVID, and for #pediatricians this wave feels *worse* in many ways. And as a pediatric hospitalist who has been a front-line COVID doctor for the entire pandemic, I’m going to share what I’ve seen the last 8 days on service. 1/

As the Delta variant (B.1.617.2) becomes dominant throughout the world, there are 2 patterns emerging:
—Countries w/ low vaccination rates are seeing both case and fatality rates increase
—Countries w/ high vaccination rate: some case increase and minimal to no fatality increase
