We’re sleepwalking into a nasty flu/Covid/RSV season. Hospitalizations among all age groups in the U.S. increased by 200% for influenza, 51% for COVID-19, and 60% for RSV in the past four weeks. It’s not too late to get your updated vaccinations!

It turns out, the Commissioner is right

For older Americans as well as those with chronic disease, the new COVID19 vaccines will be a lifesaver

For everyone else, it's just a good idea

Know someone high risk? Help them get vaccinated. Set up an appointment. Give them a ride

[African American COVID Taskforce Plus @AACTplus]

@AACTplus thanks you for this information. We are NOT shifting our mission from COVID-19 because we know it's impact on black and brown populations. Our community based organizations will CONTINUE to get this information out to the community and work to keep saving lives.

[Eric Feigl-Ding @DrEricDing]

“Deaths in the US have doubled, hospitalizations have tripled, ER visits have quadrupled in the past month (from #COVID)." Lung damage, heart attacks, strokes, all increased by Covid. We need to rethink schools and workplaces to prevent future pandemics.
