On Monday we hosted another Healing Concert to be shared virtually throughout the hospital. The finale was really something special. Dr. Tomoaki Kato spent weeks on a ventilator and days on ECMO fighting COVID-19. Here he joins for a song. We love you, Dr. Kato. (Part 1)

Interesting NY serology results. Healthcare workers with lower COVID infection rates than general public. 12% vs 20% in NYC. 7% vs 14% in Westchester county. Points to effectiveness of precautions- especially masks IMO.

If you had #COVID19 and have recovered you can help save a life. Your blood may contain antibodies that fight the virus and can help critically ill people. Mount Sinai is looking to screen you as a volunteer. Fill out this form to see if you are eligible: https://t.co/hBWNtanfWu

I emailed friends asking if they wanted to sponsor lunch for techs and RNs and for masks. Received 45 N95‘s and $3500 in lunch donations- enough to include custodial staff too for the week. Reach out to your networks, they want to help. #medtwitter #medstudenttwitter

@NAChristakis Many people in the country bought N95/N100 masks to have at home as news broke. Maybe a there can be a donation drive to get unused ones to hospitals where they are truly needed. @NAChristakis

Government official: Coronavirus vaccine trial starts Monday.

If you’re not amazed by the ingenuity and competence of our scientists, you’ve not been paying attention. And if you’ve been decrying expertise as “elitist,” you’ve had a death wish. https://t.co/Z5aRbzuej4

@cmyeaton @reichlab Stresses importance of widely available antibody titer test. Those who recovered are extremely valuable to communities- able to work, volunteer, assist neighbors, donate plasma . Many won’t know if they have immunity without antibody test. @balajis
