March Madness has started, so I took my first shot. Feeling great and grateful. Let’s beat Covid together! Special thanks to @TrinityChicago and @advocatehealth for the opportunity to get vaccinated in the community at Imani Village.

@AllyMarotti @chicagotribune @CrainsChicago Woohoo, Ally!

We join former President @BarackObama in thanking Dr. Manuel Bernal, the second-year resident at Advocate Christ Medical Center featured in this @washingtonpost story, and all other Dreamer health care workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Dreamers have contributed so much to our country, and they are risking their lives fighting on the frontlines of this pandemic. They deserve permanent immigration status and a pathway to citizenship—as they are Americans in every way but on paper. https://t.co/e4IYqX3WIy

[Brigid Sweeney @Brigid_Sweeney]

Thank you to all of our @AdvocateAurora clinicians—and health care workers everywhere—who don't just care for COVID-19 patients, but also act as their surrogate families during their time in isolation. https://t.co/SI4yRAdMZL

.@AdvocateAurora and @onemedical plan to expand membership-based primary care in the Chicago area. “Us trying to force once-size-fits-all (care) into the market probably doesn’t make a lot of sense long term," says Advocate Aurora's Scott Powder. https://t.co/pgnBd3I0sj

@franklin_wiener @zoegalland @CrainsChicago CORRECTION, ugh! Franklin, the correct email is [email protected]. Sorry about that!

[Brigid Sweeney @Brigid_Sweeney]

Some news: Today’s my last day at @CrainsChicago. It has been a remarkable privilege to work here for eight and a half years. I will always be grateful to my wonderful colleagues and to the many sources and experts who have made my stories better.

[Brigid Sweeney @Brigid_Sweeney]

@franklin_wiener @zoegalland @CrainsChicago Oh no, it's TBD! There'll be an outside search, I believe. In the meantime you can send pitches to [email protected]'s constantly monitored.
