Exciting things happening at @vermontpublic. More to come!
“The state has put up a bunch of signs on surrounding roads telling trucks to go away. Even still, when the road reopens every spring, it’s only a matter of time before a tractor-trailer gets stuck.”

In 2019, @mdghty and @eliz_gribkoff spoke with Sandy Sumner about symptoms he experienced after being exposed to PFOA. Earlier this month, I sat down his wife, Marie-Pierre, who shared what her life has been like without him. (thread) @Report4America

I wrote about long Covid in Vermont: Patients are still suffering, more are still emerging, and the barriers to care — especially in rural areas — can be huge.

We want to hear from you: What do health and safety protocols look like in your workplace? What guidance have you been given about vaccination and booster shots, or about returning to work if you test positive? Do you feel safe at work?

A bunch of very committed people worked hard to make this happen, but I can't say how much we owe @loladuffort and @EPetenko for leading this effort and following it through to this point. Thank you both 🙏🙏🙏
VTDigger and the VTDigger Guild, the union that represents its newsroom employees, have arrived at their first-ever collective bargaining agreement.

The effects of a school Covid surge are cyclical, I learned in Barre. Less flexibility for families to quarantine and miss work, more school employees absent, less capacity to test and trace. More virus keeps circulating, more learning lost.

I know it's 5 pm on a Friday, but I really think you should read @mdghty's excellent big-picture takeout on Delta in Vermont: vtdigger.org/2021/10/01/delt…
A new, long piece about Vermont’s fight with the Delta variant and the seemingly ever-expanding range of ways to interpret the current situation. I hope this is clarifying.

Went to Jamaica (Vt.) with @ehcotton to learn about Tropical Storm Irene, this month's flooding and what climate resilience looks like in a town of 1,000.

During my last week in Vermont, I spoke with @vtdigger's @mdghty on a year and a half researching and reporting on the pandemic, what's in store for this summer and of course, last year's White House outbreak tracker. Thanks for the conversation!

More than a year ago, we unionized in hopes of creating positive and constructive change at VTDigger. But we’ve made little progress on the issues that matter. 1/ @vtdigger @newsguild
"People, if they’re making a good decision for themselves, don’t do it in an instant."
"This is a choice for people now. I have to leave it up to them."
