Almost 2 months late in noticing this but my letter to the editor was published! We have now seen games consistently canceled and continually high case counts on college campuses #PUBLHLTH791 https://t.co/xE3Ec1OFVK
.@susie_c has a terrific piece outlining how health care consolidation made us all more vulnerable to a pandemic. Our system isn't designed for care; it's designed to maximize profit: https://t.co/1an0RilE4z
People who live in neighborhoods that were once subjected to a discriminatory lending practice called redlining are today more likely to experience shorter life spans –sometimes, as much as 20 or 30 years shorter than other neighborhoods in the same city.

A university needs to protect all of its students, until then it has failed. A UW Madison employee threatened and assaulted students and nothing has been done yet. This is not protecting the health and well being of our campus #PUBLHLTH791
Rich Yaeger is still employed by @UWMadison & we are doubtful that they will remove him from his position.
UW Madison is demonstrating that it does NOT care about BIPOC student, faculty or staff safety or wellbeing.
BIPOC LIVES MATTER.

There is a desperate shortage of health care workers and supplies, and hospitals are feeling the strain. There needs to be legislative action to provide funding to hospitals and create stricter social distancing laws #PUBLHLTH791

112 co-sponsors of Medicare for All were on the ballot. All of them won.
98 co-sponsors of the Green New Deal were on the ballot. Only 1 lost.
Supporting Medicare for All and the Green New Deal is not just good public policy.
It is also good politics.
Sad to see the Badgers have to cancel their game with Nebraska Saturday but smart decision. The health of players and the communities that they live in is more important than football #PUBLHLTH791
Really excited that the White House is saying the pandemic is over citing the president’a daughter and renowned scientist Ivanka #PUBLHLTH791#PublicHealth
Rural hospitals are in particular danger due to COVID-19. Decrease in revenues due to COVID-19 is particularly damaging to rural hospitals that already operate on slim margins #PUBLHLTH791
1/ Another hospital closes this week raising the total to at least 16 so far this year...
Trouble lies ahead for many more hospitals amidst an uncontrolled pandemic and economic recession

Sources: Minnesota will be shorthanded against Michigan tonight, with a flurry of key specialists, two starting offensive lineman and a starting LB unavailable. Details here from @YahooSports. https://t.co/KKxb24EL5S
That's roughly the population of Greenfield, Wisconsin's 20th largest city.
There are more people who have covid in Wisconsin than live in the cities of Oak Creek, Beloit or Sun Prairie.
Trump brought a superspreader rally to our state—where we have had over 12,000 new cases this week, reached record-high hospitalizations & were forced to open a new field hospital—and told Wisconsinites that we are rounding the corner.
This is depraved.
It’s horribly frustrating that the people who didn’t take this pandemic seriously and told us all it wasn’t a problem get the state of the art care denied to millions #PUBLHLTH791
BREAKING—Chris Christie was not only hospitalized, but he was in the ICU for 7-days... and he got special VIP access to Eli Lily’s synthetic monoclonal antibody drug direct from the manufacturer (it’s not available to general public since it’s not FDA approved). That’s privilege.
Make no mistake, if this dangerous decision stands, Wisconsin will be choosing full bars over full classrooms.
What a pathetic set of priorities to teach our children.
Doctors do not know if there is any time that is safe during the pregnancy to have a drink. Play it safe, for baby, and for your baby’s future #PUBLHLTH791#PublicHealth#NoSafeAmount
