#PublicHealthHaiku Basic need for some Supplying diapers helps folks Keeps babies comfy. @APHAMCH @APHAPHN
In 2020, the National Diaper Bank Network distributed 100 million+ diapers, a 67% spike year-over-year. 1 in 3 U.S. families couldn't afford diapers before #COVID19. No federal aid or assistance program covers diapers. #SDOH @washingtonpost reports:

#PublicHealthHaiku Now's not the right time! Plunging back into high risk Texans' lives at stake. @lisacampbelldnp @APHAPHN @CHPPD_APHA
Gov. Greg Abbott's decision to "open" Texas is premature and, if so, it is akin to mass murder.

NEW: 2.9 million vaccines reported administered today, 20% above the last record. Gratitude for all the vaccinators, volunteers, doctors, pharmacists, couriers, manufacturers, civil servants, and soldiers who are working together on this effort.

We are BEYOND excited to see @DisabledInPsych coming to Twitter because in both #Psychology and @PublicHealth, it is not just about the disabled clients we have. It is also about how we exist within these fields as disabled practitioners or students. @DisInHigherEd @aphamh 👇🏽

Joining @abbydphillip #InsidePolitics soon: Every moment the CDC continues to delay guidelines for what fully vaccinated people can do is a squandered opportunity. We need, urgently, to have reopening policies tied to vaccination & give people actionable guidance for their lives

#PublicHealthHaiku Twin movements align Anti-woman anti-choice Not *pro-life* at all. @APHASRH @APHAMCH @creddingvye @lisacampbelldnp @ProChoiceMass @Lorraine_Doyle
Proud Boys hand in hand with clinic protestors is not surprising. Clinic harassment has long been a gateway to anti-democracy extremism. And anti-choice actors are primary purveyors of disinformation, pushing election fraud disinformation to their followers. They're soul mates.

A great accomplishment for kids and families! @APHAMCH @PublicHealth @FamilyVoices @BUSPH @sandrogalea @DC_AMCHP @cdBRComHealth @CityMCH @NACCHOalerts
Here are just some of the things the American Rescue Plan provides to families and children. It will cut child poverty in half, which is the most significant policy change for children since the 1990s. #CutChildPoverty

If you’re wondering which of the #COVID19Vaccines is best for you, the short answer is: whichever one is available to you. All three are safe and highly effective at preventing #COVID19 hospitalizations and deaths.
