Today Lexie became a fifth generation Clemson graduate receiving two degrees - in Accounting and Financial Management and graduated magna cum laude. We have 3 centuries of Clemson grads. 125 years ago it started with her great-great grandfather class of 1899. #clemsongraduation

@editmaster @conwaymed Thank you Rusty!! Those years have flown by and I’m feeling them for sure 😁 About time for another reunion I think.

Screenings can help detect cancer early when treatment options are more likely to be successful. Talk to your doctor about available screenings and other preventative measures you can take. #nationalcancerpreventionmonth

[Allyson Floyd @allysonfloyd]

@wpdeabc15 Include yourselves in that! Thank you to all the journalists working so hard to keep us updated and well-informed! You are appreciated! Be safe out there!

Deck is icing over just south of Conway, SC. @EdPiotrowski @SCweather_wx #scwx

@AndrewJAPrue @EdPiotrowski At least we didn’t bet washing a car this year…. Although I don’t ever remember that bet being paid in years past. 😂 @EdPiotrowski did wear a Clemson tie on air a time or two though!

This is horrifying. As she says in the thread, all patients aren’t dying FROM COVID, but some are dying BECAUSE of COVID. Hospitals are overwhelmed and that doesn’t just affect patients with COVID. Please protect us all. Slow the spread. Wear a mask and get vaccinated!

This is “absolutely a step back,” a local doctor said. https://t.co/bXnkeIUQ6k

[Dr Ellie Murray, ScD @EpiEllie]

THINK LIKE AN EPIDEMIOLOGIST:

The CDC’s recent announcement that the Delta variant has an average reproductive number of 6-9 has a lot of people concerned & many are asking me about whether this means we need COVID boosters.

Let’s talk through the math of how we might decide!

[Allyson Floyd @allysonfloyd]

So happy to see some “normalcy” coming back!

[ConwayMedicalCenter @conwaymed]

For the first time since March 2020, the main entrance has reopened to CMC! All entrances are now open. Visitor restrictions have been lifted (except for COVID positive patients in isolation). Masks are still required in all CMC locations. More info at https://t.co/ThlPFR7rHP

A big thank you to @HorryTelephone for their donation of two iPads to The BirthPlace. The partnered effort with the @MarchofDimes supports the Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies mission. Our Labor and Delivery staff will use these iPads to help our patients live happier healthier lives
