New data from @CMSGov on net change in Medicaid from March to July shows that more children are losing Medicaid than adults.
Very problematic since kids more likely to remain eligible.
⬇️1,151,502 children Medicaid + CHIP
⬇️1,047,795 adults Medicaid

New @KFF data for all 50 states + DC:
Silver premiums on the #ACA #marketplaces are increasing by about 5% on average in 2024, before accounting for the subsidy.
Some states will see premiums fall; others see double digit increases

New booster, new variants, new wave.
All reviewed in the new Ground Truths (see profile for link).
One point that's commonly missed about this is the goal to avoid reinfections and risk of #LongCovid.
Next week, CDC will likely give the eligibility booster nod for all ages.
