Hot take: Public health communication is *vitally* important for Americans. Even rich, powerful ones that frequent McDonald’s! (ex. www.cdc.gov/ecoli/outbre...)

Enjoying our rare NC snow days by first and foremost watching my dogs curiously crunch around the yard. I also cozied up indoors finishing my book AND videogame. The best feeling.
