Today, I received my second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. Then I went to a frozen lake in the lap of pure nature to dance Punjabi Bhangra on it for joy, hope and positivity, which I'm dispatching to Canada and beyond for everyone's good health.

As someone who has not always been happy with the CDC's messaging, I think their new guidance for vaccinated people is quite good.
It acknowledges a lot of complexity and uncertainty with phrases like "for now", "still learning", etc.

Shocking. Another example of structural violence at play in the Covid response. How can we unite and advocate to add sites to the hardest hit neighborhoods? @JoiaMukherjee @emwroe @michaelmina_lab @JustinDMendoza @EricGoralnick @PIH

Massachusetts has dramatically boosted COVID-19 testing capacity + output. As that effort continues, its crucial that we sustain our commitment to tracing.
Today we joined the terrific team at @PIH to announce a Community Tracing Collaborative to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.

As @DrTomFrieden points out in his new piece, testing can have low sensitivity, partly due to poor technique, create a false sense of security.
You don't want to swab the throat (32% sens) or nose. See proper NP technique (and how far back to go) here
