In this Quick Start Guide, employers can help the employees in the workplace to understand the importance of safeguarding their co-workers as well as themselves. Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed deep vulnerabilities in our nation’s public health infrastructure. We’ve lost lives, intensified inequities and eroded years of progress across our economy. Getting back to our lives—back to seeing our loved ones, back to school and back to business—requires that we turn the tide against COVID-19 and create a stronger, healthier future for all of us....

As we despair about decisions emanating from the High Court of the land, whether about the rights for women or for voting, for starters, we can rightfully rank the Court at the lowest level of confidence ever. At the same time, the populace knows little about the details of Puerto Rico’s relationship to the U.S., nor does it know much about the rights of citizens from U.S....

Much has been bandied about regarding affirmative action, some pros and some cons. But much emanates from ideological views mired in bias and steeped in politics. Hence, is the public aware of key underlying issues? Let's step back a moment and reflect from a broader perspective: one from the vantage point of history, the other from the reality of privilege and exceptionalism....

The fight in politics and in the streets is now coming to a school near us with devastating results. Political trickery is greatly infecting (and often distorting) what takes place in the hallowed corridors of our schools. Too many educators are fighting conditions that interfere with basic schooling. Certain citizens now want to get into the act of schooling because they believe to know as much as educators merely because they once attended school....

While much has been bandied about regarding education this past year, too much information is not just inaccurate, but highly misleading, even off the deep end. It is important for educators to set the record straight for the American public with correct information, even if sobering. The U.S. has been failing in educational achievement for nearly half a century. More poignantly, we were provided a good dosage of information from then Education Secretary, Terrel Bell, with his release of a devastating report, …...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports an increase in respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-uhl) virus, or RSV, is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. Most people recover in a week or two, but RSV can be serious, especially for infants and older adults. RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airways in the lung) and pneumonia (infection of the lungs) in children younger than 1 year of age in the United States.

We tend to forget that the major role schools play in the lives of children is enormous and most evident under crisis and when loss of schooling is evident. And this is not solely about back to basics. The COVID pandemic (2020-2021) underscored this reality in sobering ways. While we never expected closures to occur, it became inevitable over time, with the absence of schooling only highlighting the importance of public schools and our reliance on their role....
