🧵I'd like to take a moment to clear up some confusion/misinformation about a COVID death statistic from the CDC. It's been cited by many in my mentions and leaders like @GlennJacobsTN and @timburchett. The claim: Only 6% of deaths from COVID in the US were from COVID alone.

Really excellent (if longish) essay by @jessedmccart Under the guise of a review of Frank Wilderson’s book Afropessimism present a much broader and wider reflection. Can be read as a kind of critical midrash on Obama’s DNC speech this week lareviewofbooks.org/article/on-afr…

It’s important to remember that it’s the pandemic that is hurting our economy, not our efforts to curb it. 2/2

YOU CANT TEST YOUR WAY OUT OF QUARANTINE ^that’s the message the Knox Co. Board of Health & @KnoxCoHealthTN wants you to hear. Their position is: if you’ve been exposed, you must quarantine for 2 weeks—even if you get a negative test. (Cc. @wbir)

@ameliayoung Can you say more about what they meant by this? Is it that, *if you know you were exposed* you can’t test your way out of that quarantine? Or just if, say, you had some symptoms but got negative results, you still need to quarantine?

At PARC @Knoxville_PD meeting: did they just say they only banned chokeholds because of the “optics”? Legitimate question, feel like I misheard.
