#COVID19 🧵 thread
3) It has been conveyed to me that my scoop 2 weeks ago upset the @CDCgov leadership, who were caught trying to defend how they neglected to inform the public that #BQ variants went from UNLISTED to suddenly 11%. It was epically embarrassing of @CDCDirector.
2) Hand washing is of course important overall for health. But it’s a half assed message regarding COVID at this stage. If you don’t include either mask or airborne mitigation such as ventilation or air disinfection, you’re doing it wrong. The @CDCDirector should know better.
Why no mention of n95 masks? #COVIDisAirborne
Respiratory viruses are on the rise across the United States. Take preventive actions to stop the spread of viruses like flu, RSV, and #COVID19:
🩹Get an updated COVID-19 vaccine & get your annual flu vaccine
🏠Stay home if you are sick
🧼Practice good hand hygiene
"Scientists are seeing the first data points that prove a dramatic change in human organs after a #COVID19 infection."
"You can start thinking about getting COVID as almost as an accelerant to aging in people."

Pay heed to what is happening around the world, as multiple #Omicron mutants are surging, evading immune system defenses and spreading rapidly. All of them are in North America -- and nobody knows which will lead our winter #COVID19 surge in the USA.

2) Our team’s model shows late November is when variant cases will be surging very quickly again. “Pentagon model” is our nickname for the 5 fastest surging sub variants added together.

We are now flying blind—The @CDCgov announced it had ended its #COVID19 country travel health notices as **fewer countries reported enough data for accurate assessments**. Basically, they admit they have no idea how much COVID is worldwide—so forget it? 🤦🏻♂️

Is the pandemic over?
⚠️Hell no—Not even close.
🔹 Excess mortality still exceeds THIRD global cause of death!
🔹#LongCOVID itself is a pandemic crisis
🔹Evolution of new virus variants not done yet
🔹Transmission still very high

#UniteAgainstBookBans offers practical tools for anyone to use right now to address book censorship in their community. It's really important for everyone to know what's going on with their local boards to support their local libraries.
