Re-joining the WHO is welcome news. Pandemics by definition require a coordinated global response. The U.S. needs to be involved in leading the response to COVID-19. Thank you President Biden and Dr. Fauci.

[James E.K. Hildreth @JamesEKHildreth]

Long overdue: A true scientist appointed to the President's cabinet - first time ever. Imagine impact of a scientist's perspective considered when critical decisions are made. This is excellent news. https://t.co/tfOYSCWM95

"My whole soul is in it" President Joseph Biden. A leader with a soul; that itself will make all the difference for the rest of us.

I am ready Mr. President, let's roll!

Any person with a history of severe allergic reactions should only get Pfizer or Moderna vaccines in a clinical setting where reactions can be treated immediately. In the few cases thus far, immediate treatment has led to fast recovery. https://t.co/7EzN31Za3G

[James E.K. Hildreth @JamesEKHildreth]

RNA viruses like COVID19 virus mutate as a mechanism to escape immune system. Mutations happen as a consequence of virus replication. With as much virus circulating & replicating in U.S. the variant in U.K. may have arisen in U.S. already.

FAQ COVID-19 vaccine: Will there be side effects from vaccine? YES. Mild/moderate, resolving in 1 to 3 days. Some (not all) of: injection site pain, swelling, headache, muscle pain, fever, chills & fatigue. Most of these show that an immune response has occurred (as expected).

[James E.K. Hildreth @JamesEKHildreth]

Among (true) public health professionals, there is no dispute or disagreement, and the message has been same for months: all of us should wear masks if we are to control spread of COVID-19 and save lives. Period. Full stop. Over.

[James E.K. Hildreth @JamesEKHildreth]

Personal responsibility not withstanding, COVID-19 situation in Tennessee - worse in nation - demands mandatory mask mandates. Same science that produced vaccines, indicates that masks will dramatically slow COVID-19 spread and save many, many lives.

[James E.K. Hildreth @JamesEKHildreth]

Looking forward to Meharry being featured tonight on ABC Nightline. Piece will focus on our efforts related to COVID-19 vaccines.
