There's an unspeakable anxiety that comes with bringing forth Black life in a world that takes Black lives with such impunity.

Our season finale, BIRTH, shows us that even in the midst of tragedy, somewhere, somehow, new life is beginning.

New York's serology studies have actually found slightly *lower* rates of COVID-19 among healthcare workers than in the general population. Suggests that PPE and masks help a lot!

PPE is personal protective equipment (masks, gloves, gowns, etc.) and is key to our fight against COVID19. I've been volunteering to support https://t.co/8yu0ELiwTq - check it out to submit PPE requests, find out where to donate PPE, and how to make PPE!! #GetUsPPE

Here is what I wrote in response to the Brown administration's decision to continue medical student clinical clerkships:

So far I have heard that Harvard, Cornell, Penn, Columbia, GW, and OHSU have balanced the risks and benefits and suspended clerkships for the time being. I believe we must follow their example.

I have been in multiple clinical settings where patients have tested positive (though I have not knowingly had direct patient contact). I know that many patients have not been able to get tests, despite physicians advocating for them.

In the LIC, I see an average of 15 patients a day. In the past two weeks, I have seen at least 30 patients with active upper respiratory infections.
