Yesterday was the last day of data collection for @COVID19Tracking. The outpouring of support after making this announcement has been tremendous. We feel the love, thank you ❤️
NEW: Julie Hansen has fought since September for $12,222.23 drained from her unemployment debit card.
While she ended up homeless, the state raked in $22.5 million in debit card fees & failed to track how much payment contractor Bank of America made.

I've long been a @SlackHQ fangirl, but working at @COVID19Tracking took that to new levels.
The workflows! Collaboration! Crazed emoji-making! Remote work, productivity, and culture at its finest.
The people at @COVID19Tracking are compiling the most complete data set in the U.S. for the Covid-19 pandemic. How do they do it? Determined volunteers, trained data experts, institutional partnerships and 146 Slack channels. https://t.co/y7QLgVn0br

Some thoughts in @ForeignPolicy today on how how the relationship between Democrats and Silicon Valley is going to hit a rough patch over the next few years - and how justice, fairness, and power will replace innovation and disruption as the driving considerations.
NYT created a general estimator to find where you are in the COVID vaccine waitlist (plus a cool visualization of your place in line). Super interesting - I am expectedly near the end.

⚡️ When might you get a coronavirus vaccine? The rollouts are based on who’s most at risk and how we can most effectively lower transmission and reduce deaths. @stuartathompson created a tool to help you find your place in the line. https://t.co/2S65eHjAAE
Update: @CDCgov got our request, and has adjusted its official COVID-19 race/ethnicity mortality rates for age. The data show that Black, Latino, and Native Americans are dying of COVID-19 at a much higher rate than white Americans than they previously indicated.
