Saved from a stroke by #telehealth, I'm here paying it forward by uniting community #broadband teams & #healthcare stakeholders through telehealth initiatives.

You cannot be more fucked up than these people absolutely cannot. The cops, the grand jury! You can never no way in hell, excuse this bullshit!! Just a fucking mess and such a fucking injustice!!

[Rebekah Jones @GeoRebekah]

Police knocked on the wrong door in the middle of the night at the Mississippi home of Ismael Lopez.

When he opened the door, his dog ran out.

They shot and killed it.

He was holding a rifle. They told him to put it down.

He turned around to put it down and they shot him in the back of the head and killed him.

The officer was not prosecuted.

And today a Mississippi jury rejected his wife's civil suit, stating that they did not feel the officer used "excessive force."

My guide (rel Aug 7) helps to use #telehealth, #publichealth, & #broadband to deliver #healthcare, wellness to residents with little access to docs, insurance, and gen healthcare. It also teaches how to use telehealth to drive broadband adoption. #digitalhealth #Digitalequity

Rather than chasing after corporate sponsorships two fund my #telehealth strategy guide, I’m crowdsourcing both the guide funding and some of the content I’m creating for my August 7 launch in Denver! https://t.co/Bt0lKElfOr #broadband #Digitalequity #Digitalhealth

Who’s going to tell them “YMCA” is the unofficial LGBTQ anthem? 🤣🤣🤣

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

What the righteous fuck is wrong with the people who perpetrate this injustice against other human beings!?!? Over and over against, for crying out loud!!!

[United Farm Workers @UFWupdates]

Can you believe it? These NY state farm workers were harvesting cabbages last week for 8 hours on a day that temps ranged between 28°-40°. They earn $10 a one ton bin. They say the rate hasn't gone up for more than 5 years. #WeFeedYou

[Governor Kate Brown @OregonGovBrown]

No one deserves to be saddled with the impacts of a simple possession of marijuana conviction—a crime that is no longer on the books in Oregon. I am pardoning these prior Oregon offenses, an act that will impact an estimated 45,000 individuals. https://t.co/mT9bcYzCcV

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

Putting in my two cents about what it takes to drive telehealth adoption.

Today the @FCC established the agency’s first ever outreach grant program to promote enrollment in the #ACP 🎉 A big shout out to my CGB team and colleagues from the wireline competition bureau for all of the work that made today possible! #broadband4all #connectedandthriving

[Geoffrey Starks @GeoffreyStarks]

I’m excited to vote to adopt rules for the @FCC ACP Outreach Grant Program. It’s an important step to support targeted outreach to diverse populations by those living in those communities. I call on all with ideas on how to improve ACP enrollment to participate. Let’s partner up!

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

Looking forward to it. 😃

[Sean G @sean_comm]

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

It’s a pleasure and quite enlightening working with @sean_comm on this article #telehealth and #broadband adoption. Kindred digital souls working for change in these two world! https://t.co/cTMN03VwPo @BroadbandCensus @ilsr #digitalequity

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

Achieving universal #broadband infrastructure that lasts a lifetime would cost ~ $100 bill, which is just *2.5% of what we spend on healthcare in US every year! Do the effin’ math!! #Telehealth drives BB adoption, BB lowers healthcare costs! @BroadbandCensus @ilsr #digitalequity

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

The N Center for Biotechnology Information study further found that the elderly, men, Black communities, and those insured with Medicaid would reap the biggest benefits. @BroadbandCensus @ilsr

There are at least 6 tactical ways using #telehealth to max public health, including reducing preventable hospital stays. Telehealth significantly drive #broadband adoption, digital inclusion, and digital equity as well as health equity. @BroadbandCensus @ilsr #digitalequity

[Craig Settles @cjsettles101]

The Natl Center for Biotechnology Information research found there 3.5 million potential preventable adult inpatient hospital stays in 2017 alone - a potential $33.7 billion in healthcare costs. Telehealth can impact these costs. https://t.co/cTMN03VwPo @BroadbandCensus @ilsr
