Shout out to everyone voting for the first time this year.
I’ve received lots of messages from people of all ages + backgrounds sharing with me that this is their first time voting.
I’m so proud of you! Congratulations 🗳 🎊
I know you’re sick of COVID-19. We all are. You don’t have to stay home, but you do have to stay safe. Maintain social distance, get tested if you think you’re sick, and #MaskUpMN.

Why has the United States handled this pandemic so badly? The Editors note that although we came into this crisis with enormous advantages, our current political leaders have demonstrated that they are dangerously incompetent.
In his latest blog post, @TerryTsueMD, VP & physician-in-chief at @KUcancercenter, talks about the impact of #COVID19 on outcomes for individuals dealing with cancer. Read his blog post about COVID-19 and cancer: https://t.co/uvvZQepi1S

My 100 bed ER is now overwhelmed & our hospital has closed to non-critical transfers and is starting to look for ways to transfer patients OUT.
And the case load continues to climb.
And the outlying smaller hospitals will all be overwhelmed soon.
Please stay home & wear masks.
For anyone ranting about COVID and protests... I’m a doctor who cares a lot about COVID. I care about human life more than anything. But I agree with the protests. And I want to share my perspective.
New Tonight: Disturbing video from @WBFO in Buffalo, NY shows an elderly man walk up to police in riot gear. An officer shoves the man...he falls backwards, hits his head...starts bleeding immediately...motionless.
Why did this happen @BPDAlerts ?
Everyone loves the idea of justice...
until there's a personal cost.
The truth is there's always a cost to justice.
Count the costs.
Keep. Pressing. On.
