Amazing, the public health outcomes we can accomplish when it comes to Husker football.

Month 6. https://twitter.com/owhnews/status/1304182652120031242
We couldn’t even get testing in the Capitol when we had to finish our last 17 days of session in July, when cases were peaking.

That’s the level. And it’s not like anyone is more important—that’s the point!! If essential workers can’t get tested first, we are failing.
I took one COVID test at a local hospital after we went back into session, being around dozens of Coronavirus-denying colleagues who refused to wear masks, all day, every day. And I got billed for it!

We know our essential workers are being left behind, and it’s wrong.
We know workers who our state + fed govt has deemed “essential” are less likely to have health insurance and are serving customers all day who fight about masks, who don’t tip, who don’t take COVID seriously.

In month 6!! of our COVID fight, we haven’t even nailed down step 1.
“So what would you do, genius?”

Put public health experts in front.
Let them shine.
Don’t reinvent the wheel.
Copy what other countries have done well.

We have the wealth & resources to make this possible. But do we have the leadership? I’m unsure.
