“In many ways, contraceptives are the foundation of a women’s power. They give women the ability to plan their families and plan their futures.” #ICFP2022 #FPforAll @melindagates

Here at the first major Central Bucks school board meeting since the ACLU filed its federal complaint against the district. Tonight’s discussion involves a policy that would ban Pride flags in classrooms. Details on that policy to come.

The room is full.

At the @devex @sabinvaccine UNGA 77 event, @WHO’s @Kate_L_OBrien emphasizes “We have to design immunization systems with people at the center.” @GHVisions

At the @devex @sabinvaccine event @Atul_Gawande stresses we will not have a V shaped recovery from COVID due to damage to health systems, which is damage to health workers.

Investment in health workers is critical to COVID recovery & reversing immunization declines @FHWCoalition

[Kristen Cox Mehling @KCoxMehling]

How do we reduce alarming declines in immunization?

“Start with the communities” is the overwhelming refrain at the @Devex @sabinvaccine UNGA 77 event. @GHVisions

Stopping deforestation is essential to support human #health, address climate change, & halt biodiversity loss.
@GHVisions contributed to a @WWFForestCarbon report to examine ways public health & conservation sectors can better support healthy #forests. https://t.co/CciBAkXigL

Failing to share #COVID19 vaccines with the world will cost the economy more than $2 trillion, according to @TheEconomist.

All countries need access to the vaccine to #endthepandemic.

@reopenbucks Maybe they are delivering groceries to a cancer patient? Or maybe the applesauce just broke? Either way, posting a photo of strangers (who aren't from Bucks County or even anywhere in the Northeast) is just gross.

[Kierstyn P. Zolfo 🇺🇸 @BucksCoKierstyn]

It is FASCINATING that a group that is supposed focused on getting #BucksCounty to re-open is also advocating against the very tools needed to re-open.

@ReOpenBucks:
You look like fools.
You are fighting against your own goal.
You are embarrassing yourselves.

The armed militia/paramilitary wing of the #Reopen anti-mask movement announced it will be in Doylestown #BucksCounty #PA01 8/25 noon until @CBSDSchools meeting to discuss amending the health & safety plan based on @buckshealthdept David Damsker's new #COVID19 guidelines. 1/5

[Lady Bridget Whistletown @BWhistletown]

One must always be prepared to expect the unexpected when it comes to Dr. Damsker and The CBSD school board. And that's the tea...#drDamsker #DitchDamsker #CBSD #MaskMandates #WearAMask #Bridgerton #spillthetea

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

As Afghanistan suffers, America has to take a long look at how we've perpetuated horror & how we can provide healing. We must welcome refugees & at last become the country we say we are. Today is the day to take in the tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to breathe free.

[Lady Bridget Whistletown @BWhistletown]

[CDC @CDCgov]

#COVID19 cases are going up in over half of U.S. states and territories. The 7-day average of daily new cases is 24,141, up 65.9% from the week before. Get vaccinated as soon as you can to protect yourself & your community. More: https://t.co/gp6X4zTnBT.

I like to think Ted Cruz is growing that beard because he can’t bear to look himself in the face
