Having a single negative Covid-19 test is not sufficient for a safe Thanksgiving because it does not prove that you aren't infectious today, and it certainly doesn't prove that you're not infectious tomorrow, Megan Ranney writes for @CNNOpinion https://t.co/0xGLB4bR9v

I know it’s hard, but please consider your loved ones. Stay home if you can.

A negative COVID test does not clear one for safe travel. You can be asymptomatic & test positive shortly after. You can get it en route.

Don’t spread COVID to parents, loved ones, workers. Stay in!🏡 https://t.co/PPcUR6wtEb

We started studying cloth masks in March. Preprint now at https://t.co/PwTCS6ZaJV Take-home: Cloth masks are not an N95, but they work reasonably well for aerosols 1-2 microns and larger, which is the size that we think mostly mediates transmission. See thread. /1 pic.twitter.com/ae37seFs6r
