Another increase in #COVID19 cases this week in #IndianCountry per @IHSgov data. Remember these data are underestimates and could be 5-10x higher per some experts due to underreporting of home testing. Please be safe!

The increasing trend in new #COVID19 cases continues in #IndianCountry. While last week’s data were estimated due to no data from @IHSgov in the prior week, this week’s new cases are from actual data. Please be safe!

A reminder during #Pride: A lack of consistent data about LGBTQI people hampers efforts to advance justice, equity & inclusion.

Despite increasing visibility in communities & in private surveys, LGBTQI people far too often remain invisible in federal data.https://t.co/pwdod5XO7r
