CDC says fully vaccinated people are able to do things more normally as before. This means 2 weeks out from 2nd dose of Moderna, Pfizer; 2 weeks from the J&J dose. This is great news, and we hope this encourages more people to choose to be vaccinated. cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nco…

Data from @CDCgov shows how double masking - wearing two masks - can increase effectiveness against COVID-19 spread (up to 95%).
A key point in their data is also the importance of wearing a snug, high quality mask with a good fit and seal.

Good morning, West Virginia. Let’s continue to do the things we know help keep each other safe: Wearing masks. Keeping physically distant. Washing our hands. These actions not only protect ourselves but also others. Thinking of others is who West Virginia is.

Our own Gretchen Garofoli was interviewed on @BBCWorld this evening, discussing West Virginia's rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine!

Dr. King once said, “Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism, or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.” Our University will never stop working to forge inclusive communities where everyone is valued and every voice is heard.

She's way smarter and a way better doctor than I could ever hope to be, but also our rock, and an unbelievable mom to our triplets. She pours her heart and soul into her job and our family--my wife is awesome and just had to brag on her for a second wboy.com/healthcare-heroes/h…

Kudos to @wvuvectors, aka @WVUBiology professor Tim Driscoll, for doing the dirty work to help us all avoid COVID.
In addition to respiratory droplets, COVID-19 can also be found ... elsewhere.
As part of its monitoring of COVID-19 on campus, WVU researchers have turned to the sewers to detect potential outbreaks early.
