Who’s fully vaccinated and ready to hug a friend (who is also fully vaccinated)? With about half of the US population over 16 years of age at least partially vaccinated against COVID-19, there are new possibilities for our weekends ahead. Please, as you plan for your vaccinated future, continue to wear masks and physically distance yourself while in public spaces – an important part of keeping COVID-19 infections low. Here are five pieces that we shared at MCN this week. What did you read this week that you recommend? Let us know on Facebook or Twitter. 

Laz shared, “Ni abrazos, ni reuniones: los vacunados también se pueden enfermar y contagiar.”

Jessica and Kaethe both offered up this LatinoUSA segment, “The American Dream Daughter: A Conversation With Author Karla Cornejo Villavicencio.” (Kaethe also recommended her book – she has just finished reading it.)

Amy recommended reading through the important changes to CDC guidelines: “A Year Into Pandemic, Federal Officials Move to Better Protect Front-Line Workers.”

Kaethe forwarded on AP’s article, “After Outcry, WH Says Biden Will Lift Refugee Cap in May.”

Weekly Win: Ashley-Michelle argued, “this is a weekly win and then some”! “Not 'Illegal Alien," But 'Undocumented Noncitizen' Under New Immigration Policy.”

Have a safe and healthy weekend!
