We all want to be with our family and friends again, and the best way to make that happen is by getting the vaccine as soon as it’s available to you. I have my vaccine squad—do you? Reach out to five friends or family members to make sure they're vaccinated and tag them below!

A team of accessibility-forward designers has created the UK’s first pregnancy test for visually impaired women. Unlike traditional tests, the prototype relies on tactile, rather than visual, cues. Read the post by @graceldean via @businessinsider. buff.ly/39bVfPd

In tonight’s presidential debate the President said the “Portland Sheriff” supports him. As the Multnomah County Sheriff I have never supported Donald Trump and will never support him.

Researchers analyzed the data from every study on the protective effect of masks. Their bottom-line estimate: If 95% of people wear cloth masks, it reduces transmission by at least 30%. With this example, here's what happens over 7 five-day cycles 👇 trib.al/huKPNbf
I have a joke about being a woman in physics, but you probably won't think it's funny until my male colleague repeats it 10 minutes later.

This holiday weekend, let’s be safe and smart. It’s going to take all of us to beat this virus. So wear a mask. Wash your hands. And listen to the experts, not the folks trying to divide us. That's the only way we’ll do this—together. nytimes.com/2020/06/26/at-ho…

ENOUGH. I had to leave Portland today because my mother is dying. I am with family to prepare for her final moments. This is hard, this is personal, but so is watching my city get destroyed. I’m coming back NOW. You will be hearing from me, @PortlandPolice, community leaders.

Portland, this is NOT us. When you destroy our city, you are destroying our community. When you act in violence against each other, you are hurting all of us. How does this honor the legacy of George Floyd? Protest, speak truth, but don’t tear your city apart in the process.
