New Pinned Tweet - How You Can Help NY Go to Zero COVID

#ZeroCovid is a combo of leadership & individual actions. They rely on each other.

We need you to start that action. Let leaders know Zero COVID is possible.

Will you help us, please? How? Follow this thread! Thanks!
Tweet right now! Keep it positive! #ZeroCovidNY Add your region, e.g., #ZeroCovidNY #SouthernTier if you'd like! Some tweets to retweet are in this thread!
Send an email, letter, or call! Elected officials do keep track of voter opinions. Calling can be especially effective and after hours you can just leave an upbeat, positive VMM. Contacts are in the following tweets, as well as some things to say.
In your letters and calls let them know that:
You are concerned about COVID and are urging them to adopt Zero COVID and Green Zones as long-term, equitable solutions to the pandemic

Zero COVID saves lives and the economy so that normal activity can be restored at the right pace
using Green Zone strategies that really work 

Zero COVID is possible in NYS & you want NY to lead the rest of the US in achieving it.

For many, COVID-19 symptoms can linger and worsen long after the initial infection. This is known as Long COVID. It can strike people of any age and health condition, including children.

Let's just end this! See our pinned for ways to help! #ZeroCovidNY  https://www.endcoronavirus.org/long-covid

In person school is a big debate. There's one way to end it for good and that's #ZeroCovidNY
