The #COVID19 death toll in #nursinghomes and other long-term care facilities recently surpassed 200k, our analysis finds.

The facilities, hit hard early in the pandemic, have also seen a disproportionate share of cases during the omicron wave. https://t.co/1qDjxrIHf6

I want this. I mean, I really don't. But moth to a flame.

I bought a bag of this #brachsturkeydinnercandycorn a while back and have been saving them for #nationalspookymonth. I’m a #registereddietitian and this is my honest review as a nutrition professional. Ahem. 1/18

Q5: How will efforts for housing improvement benefit later generations? #PickUpthePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]

A4: Age and type of housing stock, and housing costs vary considerably. Housing is a state (and local) issue #pickupthepace https://t.co/wqtenFMI89

[AARP Policy @AARPpolicy]

Q4: Do States differ in terms of housing for aging populations? #PickUpthePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]

And a subsidized unit may not be accessible. 1/2 of families in subsidized housing include someone elderly or w a disability #pickupthepace https://t.co/SsVi7vvrl0

[Rodney Harrell, PhD @DrUrbanPolicy]

A3. The good news: we have more affordable opportunities now, but the affordable housing crisis never ended. A gap remains #PickUpthePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]

A3: Demand for subsidized housing still exceeds supply. 18 million low income renter households and only 8 million subsidies #pickupthepace https://t.co/97p5PoNBZ0

[AARP Policy @AARPpolicy]

Q3: Since there are more affordable housing options now, is this still an issue? #PickUpthePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]

A2: we put a housing measure in Choice of Setting and Provider. You can't choose HCBS without housing! #pickupthepace #ltssscorecard https://t.co/f2azEWkexP

[AARP Policy @AARPpolicy]

Q2. How does housing tie in to Long Term Services and Supports? #PickUpthePace #LTSS

Q3: How would you measure the adequacy of transportation? #PickUpThePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]

A2: the vast majority of people who do not or cannot drive get around by getting rides from others. Usually family caregivers #pickupthepace https://t.co/w6jykMH2fs

[AARP Policy @AARPpolicy]

Q2: Why is transportation important for people with long-term care needs and family caregivers? #PickUpThePace

[Ari Houser @AriHouser]
