Can you help me out with a school assignment? This survey only has 1 question (plus location) & is estimated to take 1 min. It is for anyone involved in health or healthcare delivery (broadly defined—if you think you might be in this category, you are). Please share this as widely as you can! I need to get all my results before Nov 29th. Thx for helping! https://t.co/YZtoNaPlX3

Does getting vaccinated change how you recreate outdoors? The answer is yes, no, maybe, and it depends. Visit Wilderness Medicine Magazine's COVID breaking news column for more information:

Minimal data re #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 longevity on natural surfaces. Data on other coronaviruses like #SARSCoV1 = 4 days on wood. Sunlight likely reduces, but data suggests virus may live on shelter picnic tables & understory for 4 days. #medtwitter #WEMS20 https://t.co/VbIW8tAQiE

From @DownToFifer, author of #WEMSText chapter on incident management. His assessment of lessons already learned from the #COVID19 #pandemic is worth heeding for anyone in emergency services/management and public health. #WEMS3 @lippincott @Wolters_Kluwer #ICS @WildMedSociety
