NYC: I need you to stay home.

It is our civic responsibility to make sure we do all we can to stave off this #COVID19 pandemic, and that means staying home.

It doesn't matter if you have a test or not, because what your doctor will ask you to do will be the same: #StayHomeNYC.

“When we solve problems for the most vulnerable, we solve the problem for everyone. We are on the work of tomorrow,” said @agb4equity

E.g. sidewalk curb cuts (originally for people w/disabilities) and not smoking in public places (originally for flight attendants). We all win.

@agb4equity is keynote at #NYSHealthEvent on Supporting Community-Led Change for Health. She is calling for more conscious work. Public health professionals should aim to create an economic engine in communities, providing entrepreneurial opportunities, for lasting solutions

When @doccrearperry speaks on #birthequity, she presents the history and facts so straightforward and powerfully. We need to acknowledge historic and current #injustices and shift the narrative. #BlackMamasMatter #LookAtTheWholeMe

@kai_wright: "We take care of each other." That is not just rhetoric. It's what sustains many in face of divestment & predation #fitcity2016
