  1. Just got off the phone with our #CongressCritters, asking them to:
    **Implement universal access policies for COVID vaccines.
    **Ensure low or no cost access to COVID vaccines.
    **Establish a public hearing with RFK Jr. to hold him publicly accountable to ensure vaccine access.

    Thanks to the #PeoplesCDC for the call to action.

  2. The #CDC needs to hear from you! The #ACIP committee is anticipated to vote on day 1 of the meeting (October 23) on the “use of additional doses of #COVID19 #vaccine in immunocompromised individuals and older adults following an initial dose of 2024–2025 vaccine”

  3. In the meantime, trends over time can be more helpful in understanding the current situation, particularly in your local area (which may be viewable on the CDC’s state/territory trends page, WastewaterSCAN’s interactive viewer...). Risks of infection in daily life may be significant even during “Low” or decreasing wastewater levels, and continued precautions are needed at all wastewater levels.

  4. There is a lack of agreement between CDC’s COVID wastewater reporting, which currently indicates a “Low” level nationally, and WastewaterSCAN’s COVID wastewater reporting, which indicates that national COVID transmission is “High.” Wastewater level labels of “Low” or “High” lack standardization, and we are looking into the reasons behind this drastic difference.

  5. This forecasting model is based on emergency department visit data to predict transmission as Rt—an estimate of the average number of new infections caused by each infectious person, also known as the time-varying reproductive number. Rt greater than 1.0 indicates a predicted increase in infections, whereas Rt less than 1.0 predicts decreasing infections.

  6. As of June 18, CDC forecasting estimates suggest that COVID transmission is “Growing” or “Likely Growing” in 39 states and territories. All remaining states show “Stable or Uncertain” or “Not Estimated” status, with no states showing “Likely Declining” or “Declining” COVID transmission.

  7. The CDC’s reported COVID wastewater levels by state show that viral activity is “Very High” in Hawaii, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, Alaska, and New Mexico. Viral activity is “High” in California, Nevada, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Texas, Tennessee, and New Hampshire.

    Four states are now reporting “Moderate” viral activity in their wastewater levels: Louisiana, Arkansas, Maryland, and Maine.

  8. COVID-cautious Americans feel abandoned

    This resonates with my experience - I used to be able to follow YLE's guidance but it is trying to thread a needle between what is needed and what it thinks the public can tolerate (like CDC).

    #PeoplesCDC as mentioned in the article is my go-to these days. It helps that it's also not a solo effort.

  9. @PeoplesCDC is there any good guidance on whether to get a flu shot early or wait till October? #peoplescdc #flu #vaccines

    #NormanSwan "So we have not learned the lesson of Covid. And yes, it's not so much that we're focusing on Covid, it's just that we haven't learnt the lessons from this pandemic." 9 May 2023

  11. While over 1,000 people continue to die from COVID each week in the US, this Thursday, May 11, 2023, marks the planned end of the Public Health Emergency (PHE). As part of a major political push to minimize public recognition of the ongoing harm of the pandemic, the end of the PHE marks a drastic reduction in COVID data tracking as well as other resources.

    Read the full May 8 Weather Report for more information on what the end of the PHE means, the state of COVID today as well as ways to take action, protect yourself and act in solidarity with your community for better public health!

  15. When the CDC announced it was doing its own internal review in Spring 2022, we launched A PEOPLE’S REVIEW of the CDC. We reviewed over 200 journal articles, government reports, news articles and white papers and surveyed nearly 500 public health experts and community leaders. We found: too many dead, too many left behind.

  21. @PeoplesCDC launches campaign to Keep the Public Health Emergency, asks people to share personal stories about why access to Medicare, Medicaid, free COVID vaccines, tests, and treatment is essential.

    Share your story on social media about how you will be impacted using the hashtag “#KeepThePHE.”
