Happy #BookBDay, @PollyJPrice! 🎇 PLAGUES IN THE NATION, a narrative history of how our country learned—and failed to learn—to respond to epidemics, is “an essential study of what needs to change before the next epidemic.”—@PublishersWkly, ⭐️ Review buff.ly/3w0tvbf

“Congress never intended that the federal government should sit on its hands during a pandemic crisis while delegating all critical response functions to state and local governments.”
Emory Law@EmoryLaw

The next presidential term will begin exactly one year after the first #COVID19 case was confirmed in the United States. Prof. @PollyJPrice says a better national response can still save lives & lessen the pandemic’s impact. #bigideas @acslaw  fal.cn/3cxLK

The Unlucky Timing of an Election-... beaconbroadside.com/broadside/2020… Instead of responding like a wealthy nation with enormous reserves of scientific expertise, the US responds as if we were fifty different, relatively poor nations with inadequate access to basic medical supplies.

We are largely beyond the legal question whether an elected official can order #facemasks to be worn in indoor spaces. @PollyJPrice explains that generally applicable face-covering requirements do not violate anyone's constitutional rights. buff.ly/395PUqn

Charlie Evavold, find me @synth-immune.bsky.social
@BrianKempGA do the right thing and protect your Georgian citizens. Atlanta's @KeishaBottoms, Athen's Kelly Girtz @accgov, Savannah's @MayorJohnsonSAV, and many other local municipalities should challenge #GovKemp's attempt to prevent face covering mandates while cases bloom.

The Governor of Georgia does not have authority to override local face mask requirements. Do the right thing. #Covid_19 #GovKemp plaguesinthenation.com/face-covering-…

Interstate Travel, Interstate Virus plaguesinthenation.com/interstate-tra… Sharing some thoughts on new quarantine requirements after interstate travel. Is it really the case that Pennsylvania is less concerned about a traveler returning from a trip to Brazil than one coming from Arkansas?

We literally left them a 69-page Pandemic Playbook.... that they ignored And an office called the Pandemic Preparedness Office... that they abolished. And a global monitoring system called PREDICT .. that they cut by 75%

Tonight's Team Trump Livestream features Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who, talking COVID-19, tells Lara Trump, "clearly the Obama administration did not leave to this administration, any kind of game plan for something like this."

“Just last week, we were asking: Why no national lockdown? The answer is that state governors are responsible for the health of their populations,” @PollyJPrice explains to @nytimes about @realDonaldTrump's recent comments about #COVID19 & federal power. fal.cn/37yJy
