    Right now, and I mean this instant, delete every digital trace of any menstrual tracking. Please.

    My incredible, young, fit, sassy mother just died of complications from Covid. She did so much good in the world and will be greatly missed by many. Here she is 3 years ago today. This wretched disease.

    I say this as someone who writes about the politics and economics of self-tracking: delete those fertility apps now.

    To fight this pandemic we must use stories. Here's a story: So-called superspreader "events" for coronavirus in the US are among the poor, working class and marginalized. And they are at their work. To get ahead and stop this virus we must tell the right stories. (thread)

    Top 10 Coronavirus clusters in the US? Prisons, meat packing plants, a Navy battleship. Next 10? Prisons, meat packing plants, nursing homes. Next 10? And the 10 after that? Prisons, meat packing plants and nursing homes.... nytimes.com/interactive/20…

    The Smithfield "plant also offered a $500 "responsibility bonus" to workers who DIDN'T MISS A SHIFT in the month of April." The LAST thing you want in a global pandemic is employers paying their workers to come in sick. That is IRRESPONSIBILITY pay.

    Singapore is a cautionary tale: proactive government interventions worked against coronavirus, but the conditions for migrant workers in the country led to new clusters of outbreaks. The lesson: you can't beat this virus without taking care of your most vulnerable workers.

    The US coronavirus superclusters are in WORKPLACES where people very have little say in how to do their work, and often no paid sick leave. The work is hard, difficult and sometimes soul crushing and dangerous. The work environments treat workers as disposable.

    For everyone to be safe, we must protect everyone. That's the story to fight this virus. You might not like it. For everyone to be safe, we must protect everyone. Not just rich. Or citizens. Or white people. Or voters. Or the able bodied. Or the young. Or people who can wfh.

    Public health has always known the truth. The care of the most margnialized members of society is important for fighting infectious diseases. We have to tell good stories about keeping our workplaces and our workers safe. For everyone's sake. <end>

    You can't beat this virus without taking care of the most vulnerable PEOPLE in society. That's the tragic lesson coming out of the US. And the UK.
