Without treatment, inactive TB can develop into active TB disease. People can become sick and may unknowingly pass TB to others, incl friends, family, or healthcare workers. Learn how to protect yourself and others: cdc.gov/ThinkTestTreat… #ThinkTestTreatTB #TEAstorm22 #APAHM

When compared to Whites, #TB case rates (per 100,000 persons) were 47x higher in NH/PI and 33x higher in Asian populations in 2020. Learn more in the @CDC_TB 2020 TB Surveillance Report: go.usa.gov/xeq9h

As Atlanta commemorates #AAPIHM, we cannot deny or dismiss the violent impacts on this community–but we can commit to uplifting & empowering the growing AAPI community through collaboration & advocacy. @CityofAtlanta recognizes May as #AAPIHM and today as AAPI #DayAgainstBullying

The work of AANHPI women and other women of color continues to be undervalued as the rest of the country depends on this essential work more than ever. Thank you to all the health care, restaurant and retail workers for your essential work. #NotYourModelMinority #AANHPIEqualPay

High unemployment rates are putting the economic security of AANHPI women in jeopardy, making it harder to support their families. AANHPI women are more likely to be living in intergenerational homes supporting their children or parents. #NotYourModelMinority #AANHPIEqualPay

@napawf research found that AAPI women experienced the highest rate of long-term unemployment during the first year of the pandemic. Money lost to the wage gap means having less to get through this crisis. #NotYourModelMinority #AANHPIEqualPay napawf.org/our-work/conte…

Some AANHPI women experience giant wage gaps that aren’t visible when we only look at averages. Burmese, Pakistani, and Nepalese women make less than 50% of what white, non-Hispanic men make. #AANHPIEqualPay

For every $1 earned by white, non-Hispanic men, AANHPI women earn 75 cents. Money lost to the wage gap means having less to support our families and use as a cushion for job loss and hard times. #AANHPIEqualPay

Today is the day in the new year that Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women finally catch up to what their white non-Hispanic male counterparts earned last year. But when you look past the average, many face even wider wage gaps. #AANHPIEqualPay
