We have the best teachers, faculty and staff in the country. Their dedication is helping to create a brighter future for North Carolina. https://t.co/Y5hDJ3proI — PolitiTweet.org

Faith leaders can be trusted figures in their communities, and their word can go a long way in encouraging people to talk with doctors about these safe and effective vaccines. By working together, we can emerge from this pandemic stronger than ever. https://t.co/NxZQNTBBJA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Thanks to all the North Carolinians who have gotten a shot and made this milestone possible. Let’s keep up the great work and continue getting shots in arms. https://t.co/kVrhPB21Tz — PolitiTweet.org

September is National Sickle Cell Awareness Month. Let’s continue to work to ensure that everyone has access to affordable, quality health care. https://t.co/NfPXBv3mDQ — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Gov. Cooper shared an open letter to faith leaders to thank them for their support throughout the pandemic and asked for their help reaching people who haven’t been vaccinated yet. https://t.co/pyswRoUFDa https://t.co/QzCjZMY8PW — PolitiTweet.org

@ncdhhs We will emerge from this pandemic stronger than ever. We all want to do it as soon as possible – so let’s do it together. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs They're absorbing everything they see & hear, even if we think they aren’t paying attention. Being civil & respectful of one another is important to navigate another COVID school year. Let’s behave the way we ask our kids to act. We owe it to them and we owe it to each other. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs Many are concerned about the fevered pitch that many school board meetings have reached in recent weeks. I am, too. Threats, bullying, intimidation. None of this belongs in our public schools, particularly by adults. Remember – our children are watching. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs Keeping children safe, healthy and learning, while in person, and in the classroom – that’s the number one priority. We cannot lose sight of that critically important goal. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs It’s positive that our trends are leveling, but we know these numbers are still too high. It’s up to us to do our part to drive them down. As we head into the fall with the school year in full swing, let’s work together to keep our commitment to students and teachers this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs We continue to educate employees with questions about the vaccine or need help finding a place to get a shot. I encourage more businesses to follow this example by implementing their own vaccine requirements. It'll make our people and economy healthier and help businesses thrive. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs Under my Executive Order, NC cabinet agencies are working to require employees to verify they have been vaccinated or collect their weekly COVID test results. It’s positive that many agencies are reporting high percentages of vaccinated employees, but there is more work to do. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs NCDHHS Healthier Together team can help houses of worship sponsor their own vaccine clinics. We’re grateful for the faith leaders who are ministering to their congregations by helping to save lives & getting more people vaccinated. We'll continue to support them however we can. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs Some houses of worship have served as vaccination sites and I hope more will. Faith leaders from all religious backgrounds can be trusted figures in their communities. Their word can go a long way in encouraging people to talk with doctors and understand that vaccines are safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs We remain laser focused on helping more North Carolinians make the decision to get vaccinated. Sec. Cohen and I are sharing a letter to faith leaders asking them to encourage their congregations to get vaccinated and to help combat misinformation about vaccines and treatment. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs But there is more work to do, especially making sure younger people get the shots. Less than half of those ages 12-24 have had one dose and case rates right now are the highest in this age group. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

@ncdhhs As we continue battling this disease, it’s good to pause and celebrate achievements like this. Every vaccine given is a potential life saved. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

I appreciate the hard work of @ncdhhs, as well as local health departments, faith leaders, doctor’s offices, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, the National Guard, long-term care facilities and more who helped us reach this milestone. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

This week, North Carolina marks an encouraging milestone in the fight against this pandemic. Ninety percent of North Carolinians age 65 and older have now received at least one dose of the vaccine. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

If you haven’t gotten a shot, and you’re not yet sick, it’s not too late. If you have had COVID but you are now negative, a vaccine still gives you much better protection against this disease. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

As of today, we have had 1,350,697 cases; 4,381 new cases reported since yesterday; 3,464 people in the hospital; and 15,811 people who have died. Most of these deaths now are preventable with life-giving vaccines. — PolitiTweet.org

COVID-19 testing is available across the state. Use the @NCDHHS’ Find My Testing Place tool to find a nearby site. — PolitiTweet.org

Medicaid expansion would help prevent further emergency surgeries and catastrophic bills. Let’s provide more North Carolinians with health care coverage, so our state can be healthier and safer for all. https://t.co/YAr8k61Ybo — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Allen was a good friend, a strong and visionary leader for the city of Goldsboro and a selfless public servant. His great work in promoting Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, combatting natural disasters and improving people’s quality of life will always be remembered. - RC — PolitiTweet.org

Vaccines help protect you from the risk of hospitalization or death. Don’t wait until it’s too late — do your part, get a shot. https://t.co/r8PxVUSaia — PolitiTweet.org
