She needs to give that speech to Congress.

Imagine if every public figure spoke truthfully and directly like this. Every one. Imagine. Thank you Stephanie.

Had no idea she was away with a covid diagnosis. So glad she’s ok. She’s right so many Americans not as privileged to take the time off and isolate. Powerful message.

Its hard when only some of us care enough to do the right thing.

My cousin wasn't feeling well, but didn't have a fever, so her employer, Sephora, had her come to work. She tested positive for covid-19 the next day. We have to denormalize making people work while sick.

[elizabethagnese]

"NO FINANCIAL SUPPORT" IS THE TRUTH. FULL STOP PERIOD.

[mikehisey]

A very impactful statement from one of the best on MSNBC. Get well soon.

I heard a story today a twenty round year old college student came home for a family function and her Grandmother and Grandfather got the virus from her she did not know she had it. Both her Grandparents died she has to live with that the rest of her life, she is in therapy sessions to cope with it.

Stephanie- THANK YOU for speaking out and shedding light on the real issue and reminding us that we all have a responsibility to help one another especially the US Government.

Best covid speech I have ever herd, amen

[DaylightDigital]

This is exactly the problem! We don't have a federal government that's doing ANYTHING they should be doing right now! You must make it easier for people to do the right thing! Healthcare must be better as well!

It's a mask. It's not to torture you. It's to help you and everyone you come in contact with.

[gungadin]

STEPH IS BACK!! i LOVE HER...SASSY REDHEAD!

Wearing masks and washing hands works.
I’m from an industrial background where masks are used to prevent people from inhaling stuff. It took me a while to realize that with covid the intend is to prevent an infected person from spreading it rather than to prevent infection by those around you.
If a person is asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic they can spread the virus and the mask is to reduce that spread. It also helps to protect you from infection but the big benefit is to keep it from spreading.
If unchecked the virus has an R factor some where around 6 and the curve rises exponentially. When people use masks and act responsibly the curve goes down which means the R factor is reduced to less than 1 and will eventually disappear.
If you think masks don’t work tell that to the surgeon next time you’re in for an operation. Tell him masks don’t work and not to bother to wear one and not to bother washing his hands. Listen to what he says.
Wearing a mask is being respectful of those around you and shows your intelligence. Not wearing a mask is being selfish. Be a responsible adult and wear a mask

Yep... I've cancelled Christmas. Going insane from isolation... But alive family means more.
