Many of the same Republicans who just voted against protecting birth control and celebrated when Roe was overturned also oppose paid family leave and efforts to make childcare affordable. This is not about supporting families—it’s about dragging women back in time.

Before United Airlines' vaccine requirement went into effect, on average more than one employee died each week from Covid, according to the CEO. Since then, there have been zero hospitalizations and deaths from the virus among vaccinated staff.

Do the unvaccinated clamouring for everything to be open realize they're the reason schools are closed and the economy and health care systems are collapsing? That this would likely have been over months ago if they got vaccinated? Can someone please tell them?

[Leana Wen, M.D. @DrLeanaWen]

We in public health fought for teachers to be prioritized for vaccines.

Vaccines + boosters protect very well against severe illness to omicron. Wearing a high quality mask further protects you.

Teachers unions: Please stop the delays. We need all schools to be in-person, now.

Here is the truth: The former president of the United States has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election.

He’s done so because he values power over principle. Because his bruised ego matters more to him than our democracy or Constitution.

[Neema Roshania Patel @neema_rp]

A prayer for 2022, from @TheAmandaGorman:

“Even if we never get back to normal,
Someday we can venture beyond it,
To leave the known and take the first steps.
So let us not return to what was normal,
But reach toward what is next.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but contracting Covid despite being fully vaccinated is no shame. It’s like getting hit by another car while driving…but you were wearing your seat belt and weren’t badly injured. You were smart. You saved your own and others’ lives.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

To those people who have not been vaccinated: you have an obligation to yourself, your family, and your country.

Get vaccinated now. It’s free. It’s convenient. It saves lives. And it’s your patriotic duty.

[Dr. Tom Frieden @DrTomFrieden]

It's impossible to get Covid from vaccination. Vaccines don't contain the virus itself—they contain instructions for your immune system to recognize and kill the virus if you're exposed.

[Leana Wen, M.D. @DrLeanaWen]

We need a conversation about an off-ramp for masks that is tied to #covid19 #vaccines. If every child in a class or on a sports team is vaccinated, it would be reasonable to no longer require masks. That’s also a powerful incentive to vaccination. https://t.co/3qu3HZvQLh

[Dr. Tom Frieden @DrTomFrieden]

No one likes to be told what to do, but getting vaccinated isn’t just about you. Your choice could mean the difference between life and death, school and no school, or work and no work for someone else.

[Maddow Blog @MaddowBlog]

Your decision whether or not to get vaccinated can be a life-or-death determining factor for somebody else who did get vaccinated but gets in a car wreck or needs dialysis - something that they won't be able to get because of all the unvaccinated people filling up the hospitals.

[Leana Wen, M.D. @DrLeanaWen]

Remaining unvaccinated & going out in public is equivalent to driving under the influence. You want to be intoxicated? That’s your choice, but if you want to drive a car, that endangers others. No one should have the “choice” to infect others with a potentially deadly disease.

[Michael Smerconish @smerconish]

Amen to this speech. They are no longer Vax hesitant, they are Vax obstinate. Enough. @JoeBiden

Joining @KateBolduan @CNN: We are seeing more breakthrough infections because we are seeing more infections. The unvaccinated are driving #covid19 spread, and it's spilling over to affect the vaccinated. That's not failure of the vaccine--it's failure of people to get vaccinated.

[Brian Steixner MD @DrBrianSteixner]

Just overheard a ER doctor tell a patient “If you are concerned about C02 levels from a face mask, then our climate crises is really gonna make you lose your mind”

[Allison Carter @AllisonLCarter]

“I trust my immune system” is such a weird reason not to get the vaccine.

Yeah, I trust mine to protect me too, which is why I gave it a detailed dossier on what the virus looks like so it can handle it.

[Ryan McNamara 🧬 @Ryan_Mac_Phd]

Apparently this needs to be said:

SARS-CoV-2 is an RNA virus. The virus genome does not integrate into your DNA as the virus is not DNA-based nor does it encode a reverse transcriptase to become DNA.

It's RNA at the beginning, it's RNA at the end. It's also RNA in the middle.
