“#longCOVID symptoms can develop in a person of any age, even after a mild or asymptomatic case of the virus. In short, more #COVID means more long COVID…. Unquestionably, people are suffering; even children are contracting the dreadful condition.” #LongCovidKids #pandemic

Among countries in the world, the United States currently ranks #67 for "fully vaccinated" and #54 for boosters

Infection-induced immunity (often misnamed as “natural” immunity) does not appear to protect the unvaccinated from #COVID19 hospitalizations and death unlike immunity from full vaccination. #GetVaccinatedAndBoosted

As Omicron recedes in NYC, the benefit of the vaccines is so incredibly clear.

They prevented infections.

And reduced hospitalizations A LOT.

And drastically lowered the likelihood of dying from Covid.

This wave was tough. Without the vaccines, it would’ve been so much worse.

[Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) @PeterHotez]

Latest on Moderna booster with omicron, clearly of great benefit. Misinfo from conservative news outlets claim vaccines do nothing vs infection and therefore mandates have no scientific basis. Not true, vaccines do reduce infection as well as disease.

When I leave a patient room I often say: “I’m going to click on some boxes on the computer, and your nurse will be back to do all of the work”

So many are burnt out and leaving us right now. I’m not sure we’ll be able to recover. Tell a nurse how much they’re appreciated.

Senate Bill 871, by state Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento), would add COVID-19 vaccines to California's list of required inoculations for attending K-12 schools, which can be skipped only if a student receives a rare medical exemption. Important public health message and action.

From the #COVID19 Frontlines:
“There is an underlying frustration with people who aren’t getting vaccinated because it’s just so sad.”
“But I don’t want to go back. I really don’t. It is a war zone.”

Documents show a 3,300% disparity between valuations Trump provided to lenders and to the IRS.

Who else thinks Trump should pay HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS in back taxes and fines? ✋
