Me too!

[Ashish K. Jha @ashishkjha]

I am not aware of any fully vaccinated person asymptomatically infecting another person

I'm not saying it never happens or will never happen

It might. But it has to be stunningly rare

And that is part of the reason why CDC changed its guidance today

121,000 #COVID cases in one day (11/5/20) in the US. Yet another world record. #MaskUp

[The COVID Tracking Project @COVID19Tracking]

Our daily update is published. States reported record numbers of tests (1.5 million) and cases (116k). Hospitalizations continue their sharp rise. The death toll was 1,124.

[Kellen Glinder @drglinder]

More than 61,000 #children got #COVID19 in the US just last week which is an unfortunate record. Currently, #kids make up 11.1% of all US #COVID cases, up from ~2% in April. #MaskUp

#MaskUp | Wearing masks reduces #COVID Yes, there was some debate about the role for masks early in the pandemic, because we had no data. We have numbers now. There is no debate about this. Masks work. #science
