"The combination of our community’s high vaccination rate, our ongoing testing program, and continuation of our masking...gives us confidence in our plan to fully return to in-person learning, teaching, and working." — MIT leadership in a letter to the community.
Your decision to get a COVID-19 vaccine is far more important than which vaccine you choose. Being fully vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from COVID-19. Find vaccines near you at https://t.co/wcXk7LpWCH. #WeCanDoThis

Florida is a national leader in COVID variant cases, but @GovRonDeSantis won't commit to helping increase vaccine rates.
What he has committed to:
• Selling anti-science merchandise
• Fighting the CDC on vaccines
• Attacking mask usage
• Campaigning for president
Covid is not an older persons disease. Our older people have mostly been vaccinated.
Covid now is a younger persons disease. They mostly have not been vaccinated.
A young 44 year old healthy unvaccinated patient died yesterday. He leaves behind a wife & 2 kids.
Remember when McConnell got rid of the filibuster to confirm Trump's nominees? Dems could do the same...but for voting rights.
If they don't, Senate Republicans will keep the Senate in gridlock, blame Democrats for it, then run on Democrats’ incompetence in the 2022 midterms.
Today, the House Oversight Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties will hold a hearing on the GOP-backed Texas voting restrictions and how these proposals are related to nationwide voter suppression efforts fueled by lies.
Texas Democrats will testify at the hearing.
WATCH Chair @RepRaskin emphasize that the voting restrictions in the Texas bills will disproportionately harm voters of color.
Congress must act NOW. The future of our democracy depends on it.
"To senators who are willing to sacrifice the right to vote to some outdated notion of bipartisanship and Senate tradition, I almost do not know what to say. On the scale of justice, this is not even a close call. Do what’s right." - @TheNormanLear https://t.co/U3EInL1e7I #USA
About once a week, we will tweet out, "Still waiting to hear a good reason why we should keep the filibuster." And still, we have yet to hear a single good reason as to why we should keep it. So let's just abolish it and move on. Please and thank you. https://t.co/IDh1dUGqMH
It is the ethical commitment of all health care workers to take all necessary steps to ensure patients' health. As the #DeltaVariant causes a new surge in #COVID19 cases, AMA and other medical orgs call for mandatory vaccination of health care workers. https://t.co/vAc4BQAjFp
Let me get this straight. So far 600,000 Americans have died of COVID yet Republicans don't think you should have to be vaccinated.
So far only 16 instances of alleged voter fraud have been found in the 2020 election yet they've passed 30 laws making it harder for you to vote.
#COVID19 cases are going up in over 90% of U.S. states & territories.
The current 7-day average of daily new cases is 61,976. This is a 64.1% increase from the previous week, & a 439.7% increase from the lowest average in June 2021. Get vaccinated. More: https://t.co/gp6X4zTnBT
