I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today (w/ @NYSenatorRivera), where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital.

The hysterical wife of the detained alien follows around and confronts the ICE agent who repeatedly tells her “adios” then two hand pushes and shoves the woman to the ground in front of her children. Court security is brought to remove the woman

4. Transparent Communication: Ensure timely and transparent communication to build trust and convey actionable information. Even well-designed, goal-driven surveillance systems can fail if they are not able to communicate actionable information to all those who need to know.

2. Comprehensive Monitoring: Understand transmission pathways, including asymptomatic spread among animals. 3. Geographical Tracking: Adapt wastewater surveillance to directly measure H5N1 and differentiate H5N1 activity in humans and animals. statnews.com/2024/05/01/h5n…

Without these, we remain vulnerable to a very real pandemic threat. Here’s what we need: 1. Rapid Identification: Detect human infections, viral evolution, and person-to-person spread early. Crucial before flu season!

🦠🔬In our latest piece for @thehill, we emphasize the importance of creating clearly stated goals for public health surveillance in response to the H5N1 outbreak. thehill.com/opinion/health…

While discussing @LiuNewYork & I’s bill to repeal property tax exemptions of $100m+ for private universities w/ @BrianLehrer, a caller said the bill is class warfare. The status quo, where rich universities get massive tax breaks while CUNY crumbles, is the real class warfare.

.@CUNY is being stripped for parts while the richest universities get $321M in property tax breaks. Pass the REPAIR bills! THANK YOU @ZohranKMamdani !

.@GovKathyHochul must maintain her commitment to reinvest in @CUNY & @SUNY! We cannot return to the years of austerity funding for public universities! #NewDeal4CUNY #APeoplesCUNY

We are tired of subsidizing what you refuse to give us…I want you to demand more for the City & the State...give us what we deserve & not tell us the reasons why we should continue to eat crumbs off the floor. -- @JenGaboury @Hunter_College Contract for #APeoplesCUNY

The #CUNY Board of Trustees canceled a hearing they're required to hold yesterday, running instead a chaotic zoom mtg. People who planned to attend to hear testimony had no access to this public mtg. If you offered testimony, you had no way of listening to others. 1/2

🚨 A recent report claims @CUNY is not spending federal stimulus & does not need full #NYCbudget funding. We'll always call out management when it's deserved! But this is a cynical 11th hour ploy. Here’s why: [ A #CareNotCuts THREAD] nydailynews.com/news/politics/…

.@CUNY is $100M+ in the hole & down 300 community college faculty & staff since COVID. Advisors say campuses are so short staffed they're pulling in random staff to help. Fed funds are already allocated. Shame on this 11th hour excuse to defund public higher ed. #CareNotCuts

CUNY is sitting on nearly $80M in federal funding, causing Mayor Adams’ office and City Council to question the their big opposition to a proposed funding reduction: sources. @C_Sommerfeldt trib.al/7RU0pBh

👋 @PSC_CUNY 👋 How about we update our contract demands to include that @CUNY must follow CDC’s new guidelines on air changes / hour in classrooms and offices? cedars-sinai.org/newsroom/verif…

A measure introduced by state lawmakers aims to address the conditions that led to heat-related illnesses among UPS delivery truck drivers last summer.

Clearly @emmaogreen is NOT a trained science reporter (stated by someone who is). Her @newyorker piece on the @PeoplesCDC misses the fact that public health=evidence-based activism. It's critique of the US COVID response aligns with global recs @JVLazarus: nature.com/articles/s4158…
