Hospitals reap tremendous benefits (i.e. >$25B) from their non-profit status. In return, Congress expects engagement w/communities & identifying needs. How are these hospitals doing? Working w/ @LeoLopez3MD & team, turns out not so great. https://t.co/77y0vnT01p (1/2)

So many breaking news stories, from COVID19 vaccine updates to increasing cases/hospitalizations/deaths across the nation

What else is breaking:
- healthcare systems from onslaught of new cases
- public health workforce who can’t keep up with contact tracing in surging states

[Kim Severson @kimseverson]

McKinsey proposed rebates to CVS for each oxy overdose, and worked to find a way “to counter the emotional messages from mothers with teenagers that overdosed.”
Powerful ⁦@nytimes⁩ reporting about the role of consultants in the drug epidemic. https://t.co/mqWBhFFByf

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma pleads guilty to federal criminal charges, formally admitting role in opioid crisis.

[(((Howard Forman))) @thehowie]

You are not just taking risks for you and your family but for contacts unknown. "Innocent" actions taken during the next 6 weeks WILL result in avoidable deaths. Let's keep that to a minimum, knowing that MULTIPLE vaccines are coming, soon.

Has been such a pleasure for @thehowie & me to work with @TomiOjo3 @PitafiSarah @toddhf96 @ericwmayberry on @CovidDashboards - has been moving to see many schools, across country, striving for transparency in their #COVID19 efforts: https://t.co/SVfxIJzsTe

[Yale School of Public Health @YaleSPH]

Clear and accessible data is key for monitoring and responding to outbreaks at colleges. So @thehowie and @cpgYALE teamed up to create @CovidDashboards, where they have rated the online dashboards of over 300 U.S. colleges and universities.

[Sarah Pitafi @PitafiSarah]

Super excited to have rated @AmherstCollege with our first A++!! Hopefully other schools will follow suit and share more critical COVID data.

[We Rate Covid Dashboards @CovidDashboards]

We are pleased to report that @AmherstCollege has now received a perfect A++(that's PLUS PLUS!) score. Well done-checks all of our boxes and gives community members the information they need to be safe on campus. We're impressed!

Excited to report NEW Functionality at https://t.co/nhO63kApjc Now searchable by Athletic Conference. FWIW, the Big Ten has the most top-rated (A or higher) #COVID19 dashboards. Stay safe and healthy, everyone!

[Mackenzie Hawkins @mackhawk]

Dashboard update today reflects *21* new cases from tests conducted 10/28 — most among faculty/staff & grad/professional students, many of whom aren't required to get tested. There have been 109 positive tests since Aug. 1 — meaning 20% of total cases come from Wednesday alone.
