By now, I’m sure you’ve heard about #FlattenTheCurve, and you might be wondering what else you can do to help, as staying home becomes routine.
If so, may I introduce you to #lowerthebaseline? Help reduce the burden on doctors by avoiding accidents, or non-essential care.
NEW: CDC guidance on masks expected to change in next 10 days. Americans will be advised to wear masks in everyday life. Current recommendation is for high-risk groups only.

When I was a little girl, I wrote to NASA and told them I dreamed of being an astronaut.
They wrote back and said they weren't taking girls.
