Important to note that UNC leaders are supposed to be working to implement Leandro, too, yet their budget request fails to include Leandro items: https://webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewDocSiteFile/75769

3 things I wish everyone understood about #COVID19 now:
- The main risk isn't acute illness or death but chronic harm to hearts, brains & immune systems: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12VbMkvqUF9eSggJsdsFEjKs5x0ABxQJi5tvfzJIDd3U/edit?usp=sharing
- You can get Long COVID following a mild illness: https://fortune.com/2023/01/05/origins-of-long-covid-90-percent-initally-mild-symptoms/
- COVID is evolving to be more dangerous by defeating our immunity protection: https://fortune.com/well/2023/01/06/kraken-xbb15-omicron-covid-variant-most-transmissible-yet-could-spawn-more-immune-evasive-variants-study-china-vaccine-monoclonal-antibodies-breakthrough-infection/
This means we should try to avoid spreading COVID & helping it evolve. And we should be more concerned for ourselves and others. #WearAMask
