Yes. I wore a mask while running earlier.

Islam Hany @IHanyFarouk

@BillHanage I wore a condom while playing video games.

I am no longer posting pictures of my life adventures. Naively, I wanted to share a few happy moments but every time I did, I was questioned why on I wasn't being a good role model by wearing a mask. Honestly, I was holding my breath--but should I have to explain it every time??

Denise Dewald, MD 🗽 @denise_dewald

@Dallas_Holladay Better than long Covid or killing patients. I chug a bottle of water midway through my shift. Breath in, take mask off, chug without breathing, hold mask to face, exhale. Repeat. It works.

Dr Ellie Murray, ScD @EpiEllie

Genuine q for ppl more concerned about schools being closed than covid: are you aware mandatory schooling is barely a century old in this country? Maybe ur all grandparents had highschool, but what about ur great-grandparents? Yes, education is important. But it’s a pandemic!

1. A thread on the CDC’s recommendation to de-isolate five days after the onset of symptoms or positive test. First, a disclosure: I was paid as a consultant for this work, done in collaboration with @Color Health, which provides COVID testing services and vaccination logistics.

@chrislhayes @arghavan_salles When my kid got Covid this summer, we opened all the windows in the house and we all wore masks. Basically lived outdoors. We kept the kids apart and she and I slept in the basement in adjacent rooms + portable air purifier. Nobody else got it. Air is the major variable.

When my kids got Covid, I set up a shanty town for them in the backyard and exiled them (out of love). Most important: do NOT hug your kids if sick. (They will ask.) This it the BEST way to OWN anti-vaxxers by showing them your multiple boosters WORK.

@Saikmedi When my kids got covid, I was out of town. I could have delayed my trip home to avoid catching it from them. But I’m (a) a good parent and (b) not a pussy.
