#COVID19 has changed our world and omicron is just the latest reminder that we need to get vaccinated. I found this article @NEJM very interesting about vaccines and the omicron variant. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

The Omicron variant spreads more easily than the original virus that causes #COVID19. Help stop Omicron by using all the tools to protect yourself and others. Learn more: bit.ly/3ous7di.

#covid has affected India the worst. Thousands of people are dying everyday. This @nytimes article explains and provides you with links to helpful organizations that are committed to containing this virus in India. Namaste 🙏🇮🇳! nytimes.com/2021/04/28/wor…

A new @CDCMMWR finds mRNA #COVID19 vaccines highly effective in preventing COVID-19 among health care & other essential workers. The mRNA vaccines reduced the risk of infection by 80% after the 1st dose and 90% following the 2nd dose. Learn more: bit.ly/MMWR32921.

Today I recieved my second does of Covid-19 Vaccine, and I feel very good. The vaccines: @moderna_tx and @pfizer use a technology called mRNA, which contains specific genetic code from the coronavirus. I believe mRNA technology is revolutionary and can be used for other viruses!

Here’s an interesting tidbit: using mRNA technology to create vaccines for other viruses!

We're all tired of the marathon that is fighting the COVID-19 pandemic – but we can't give up. We have the tools to stop the spread. The science is clear: masks work, staying home and minimizing our contact with others works. Let's buckle down. santafenewmexican.com/opinion/editor…
