Let's play the long game and fund public health. Many state and municipal health departments saw budget and staffing cuts a decade ago that were never restored.

@KateMurrayMPH @reedfischer Get better soon. Poor guy.I'm sure he's happy to be there for you. My wife's a little in the same boat as your partner - her b-day activites also got canceled this weekend.
Slow the spread of #COVIDー19 in MN by cancelling or postponing events including gatherings of 250+ people, smaller gatherings that don't allow 6' of personal space per person, and limit gatherings to no more than 10 people for high-risk groups. More at https://t.co/yz9ZXqi4am

@mps_news, @suptgraff high school map is a disaster for @SouthHighMpls and South Minneapolis. I thought the goal was integration, not poverty concentration. Plan drops wealthier river neighborhoods from South leaving only the lower income ones. Current borders much better.
Didn't tweet this one out last night, but here's the latest iteration of modeled HS boundaries. North w/n its own attendance area, unlike the original model. Southwest, South would have smaller areas geographically. Here's the full presentation: https://t.co/KC6Orrvd8e
