@capublichealth.bsky.social: California needs messaging like this, too.
gayfabfourfan.bsky.social #9 Dream @gayfabfourfan.bsky.social · 2d
The simple, honest public health messaging we should’ve seen everywhere from early on in the pandemic. Instead—as with almost every other aspect of modern life—profits & politics were put before people & their health. Protect yourself from #COVID to preserve your long term health.
durhamhealthnc.bsky.social Durham County Department of Public Health (DCoDPH) @durhamhealthnc.bsky.social · 3d
Long COVID includes a wide range of symptoms and can affect anyone, no matter your age or other health conditions. Learn more, and prevent #LongCOVID by preventing COVID-19!

Bravo to the counties implementing masking in healthcare, especially Santa Clara County for continuing to lead the way with the strongest protections. Notably absent: San Francisco & Alameda counties. S.F.D.P.H. & Alameda D.P.H., what gives? Don't your residents also deserve safer healthcare?

USA: Mask rules are returning to Bay Area health care settings from Nov 1 as COVID, flu, and RSV cases rise.

Counties including Contra Costa, Santa Clara, Sonoma, Napa, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz will require masks for workers, and in some cases patients and visitors, through spring.
