Dear @DCPSChancellor,
A LOT of our staff live outside DC and even those of us in DC, still don’t have our streets plowed. It will likely be unsafe to pick up our rapid tests at school tomorrow. Please delay an additional day so that nobody is put at risk to get a test.
Thanks

PSA to white people who claim to care about (so called) “Diversity and Inclusion” or #DEI
Do us Black people a favor and STOP calling it diversity and “inclusion”.
Just stop!
Ya’ll are racist as hell + clueless about your racism.
Let me break this down for you:

Woke up this morning thinking about how after Abraham Lincoln emancipated the slaves, he paid slaveowners reparations. Not the enslaved. That was his way of helping to ✌🏾unify ✌🏾the country and pacify angry white folks.
Anyway, what’chall having for breakfast?

VP-Elect Harris getting her COVID-19 vaccine at United Medical Center in Ward 8 is so important. Lots of the staff there had been hesitant to get the vaccine. I appreciate how intentional her team is being with her appearances out the gate.

We need entry testing. If kids are catching it in the community and bringing it into schools we can catch this as we reopen. If they reopen CARES, @dcpublicschools should make the first week after winter break for testing. No it isn’t perfect & yes I’ve read the science...

This was side by side in my TL. We have crossed the DC threshold of substantial spread & are quickly approaching the CDC one of 20. As @dcpublicschools opens classes in person have they revisited their testing guidance? We cannot stop the spread w/o regular ongoing testing!
Brenda Douyon retweeted
Everyone who can let’s join and collectively ask why @dcpublicschools isn’t testing all staff & students given the science of asymptomatic & presymptomatic spread, especially among young children. The science speaks to it, the @CDCgov speaks to it but @DCPSChancellor won’t.
Please join our community info session tomorrow, October 28, at 5:00 p.m. We'll talk about how we are prioritizing health and safety and preparing our school buildings for in-person learning. For more details, visit bit.ly/DCPSReOpening1021.

Take a look @councilofdc members and ask
@dcpublicschools why they aren't listening to the growing number of public health experts, researchers & scientists about the benefits of widespread testing. @cmdgrosso @brandontodd @AnitaBondsDC @ChmnMendelson @CM_Silverman @tweetelissa
Thread 4: Why DC should listen to epidemiologists, researchers, & public health officials in ramping up testing (esp. for asymptomatic) as a critical part of school reopening. Most experts say their only concerns are capacity & @DCPSChancellor said that wasn't a problem in DC
Brenda Douyon retweeted
I'm curious what @ASlavitt, @drsanjaygupta @theIDFile or @IDSAInfo @JAMA_current and others would say about the role of testing in schools if capacity is not a concern.
