Healthy Central Valley Together
Good morning! I hope everyone had a nice holiday. We are thankful for @NewsHour featuring us and our partners: @WastewaterSCAN, @YoloCountyCA's Dr. Aimee Sisson, and Esparto's wastewater treatment facility. Check out the story on the start of #wastewater monitoring in CA.

“We have this additional tool in our toolbox to be able to look at what’s happening in an entire community instead of relying on the people who are able to get tested” — @YoloCountyCA Public Health Officer Aimee Sisson on the value of #wastewater monitoring @healthycvt

Scientists studied 2,000+ chemicals in car tires and found one that's killing salmon. The smoking gun: a chemical called 6PPD. Fascinating & alarming reporting about the soup of pollutants that are washing off roads and polluting creeks, by @RosannaXia latimes.com/california/sto…

I might be the only Leckie mole on here. Would love help finding the rest (not highlighted). 50 years at Stanford & 55 PhDs graduated. Great chat with him today about systemic racism and our curriculum. I asked at the end, if all lives mattered, would we have centralized sewage?

Black academics are calling out racism in science, recounting behaviours ranging from overt acts to micro-aggressions, using social-media hashtags such as #BlackInTheIvory. Read more from @nature: nature.com/articles/d4158…

We have lots of hard work and difficult conversations to go, but with @Chancellor_May, Vice Chancellor @Renetta_Tull, AVC @RaquelEAldana, and many other equity and justice advocates, I believe @ucdavis will lead academia in making the necessary structural and cultural changes.

I may work in the halls of academia, but I still live in the real world. All too frequently, I’m reminded of that fact. George Floyd could have been any African American man, including me. sfchronicle.com/opinion/articl…

authors concluded "Neither surgical nor cotton masks effectively filtered SARS–CoV-2 during coughs by infected patients." Maybe because they're looking for 100% efficacy? In my book, I'll take 90% reduction over no reduction any day. /2
