It’s paramount. People exiting incarceration need stability when returning and living wages — which we should be a right for everyone — help tremendously. It’s best when these are combined w other wraparound support like housing access, skill building, and community.

Dear CDC—🇬🇧@UKHSA requires not just 1 test but **2 negative** #COVID19 tests in order to exist isolation before 10 days. But somehow a 5 day exit with 0 negative test is okay in 🇺🇸? American exceptionalism does not apply to a pandemic virus. p.s. Asymptomatic can still spread!🧵

I guess it’s time for a retweet of myself even if no one’s reading. I want to suppress my natural pessimistic tendencies, but everything is so dystopian now.

Following the great tradition of affixing a list of grievances to doors of culturally resonant locales, these fast food workers inspire us all. ::(striking) chef’s kiss::
Headlines for articles on this give the impression that ALL attendees were fully vaccinated, the event only happened outside, and that no staff were present — but we it appears that we don’t have **definitive** info to confirm these assumptions.
Preprint of Delta #covid19 variant outbreak at what is described here as a largely outdoor wedding (of course most events like this also have at least some indoor interactions) in Texas; attendees were required to be fully vaccinated. medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
