The prayers of the world are with the people of Ukraine tonight as they suffer an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces. President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering. https://t.co/Q7eUJ0CG3k

Our lives depend on hope. If you have hope, you'll be able to overcome problems you face. But if you're without hope, your difficulties will increase. Hope is linked to compassion and loving kindness. In my life, I've faced all sorts of difficulties, but I never gave up hope.

@PublixHelps @Publix My day was ruined today b/c of a rude Publix employee in my go-to store in Tallahassee, FL. Long story short, instead of helping, she basically accused me of stealing! Giving me free groceries for bad and unacceptable behavior does not cut it.

In a simulation, we modeled Delta-driven Covid outbreaks in two communities, one with a high vaccination rate and another with a low rate. Their levels of serious illness and death were starkly different.

Here's how vaccines can make a difference. https://t.co/McaTQ8rZ9V

As schools start classes across the US, public health experts warn that the politics around masks could hinder the nation's fight against Covid-19.

But the real-life evidence about masks leaves little doubt that they work. https://t.co/BCfcDCfOlt

An official with Tallahassee Memorial said most of the patients now in the hospital with COVID-19 are in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, and "many of them are not going to survive." https://t.co/HRrWwgO3xU

After a string of COVID-19 infections were reportedly traced back to travelers returning from Las Vegas, one county in Hawaii is sounding the alarm on travel to the Sin City.

I condemn the violence and lawlessness at our nation’s capital, and we have a responsibility to speak out against it. I call on all of us to support the peaceful transition of power, end the polarization and work together to build a more unified America. https://t.co/LLf81Hnnya
