Today’s Action: Mask up and get vaccinated!
As the Delta variant surges throughout the country, we desperately need a new way to message masking up and getting vaccinated. We are far, far away from the necessary numbers to reach herd immunity and protect our most vulnerable. As our ICUs fill up, overwhelmingly with unvaccinated Americans, children who cannot get vaccinated are increasingly among the gravely ill.
We have an obligation to take all necessary precautions to slow the spread of this pandemic. And let’s be honest. It’s not that hard.
Get the free shot, put a piece of cloth over your face. You know, so you don’t accidentally kill your neighbor.
Follow the updated CDC guidelines and mask up indoors, even if you’re vaccinated. While you’re on the website, check out their recommended conversation points for talking to a loved one about getting vaccinated!
There is still so much misinformation about masks and the vaccine. While you might be reading this already vaccinated and following updated CDC guidelines, the likelihood of you being just a few degrees of separation with someone anti-mask or anti-vax is high. If every reader sets an example by wearing their mask, or asking unvaccinated loved ones to talk to their primary care doctor about the vaccine, the chance of flattening the curve would increase exponentially.
Another COVID wave is scary, and we need all hands on deck to fight it and protect our neighbors. You can absolutely make a difference by following the science and opening constructive dialogue.
Take a few moments to review and share the updated CDC guidelines to mask up indoors, even if you’re vaccinated. Then, check out the CDC’s suggested talking points to help drive up vaccination rates!
PS — Please don't forget to sign the petition to stop the hospital system that is preying on poor patients, and be sure to follow OD Action on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
